I understand your point, but I don't believe that being board certified dosen't make one better vet than the other. In a way being certified is like being in Union. Their #1 is not to make the world with healty pets. There are many vet graduated veterinary school, but some graduate with c average, some with A. I rather trust the vet who's not board certified, but has plenty of experience. By the way, the carnegie hill veterinarians(board certified) sees no false with raw diet.
I think, like anything there's pros and cons to everything, so our quest is to find the one with least cons...
