| DVM or VDM Do anyone know what the difference is? I am looking into a new vet and have noticed that some have DVM and others VDM. |

VMD is a degree given by the University of Pennsylvania Veterinary School - they are the only school that offers that degree. Same thing, just different title. I guess they want to differentiate between their graduates and others! | |
