According to the RCVS Code of Conduct, a specialist in the UK can only be designated as such if recognized by the RCVS. Some of our specialists are based outside the UK and, therefore, do not hold this title within the UK. However, they are recognized as specialists in their disciplines by the European College and the EBVS or through the American college of the relative discipline.
