Delaware Veterinary Medical Association

🎉 Celebrating Delaware's Future Veterinarians!

The Delaware Veterinary Medical Association (DVMA) was thrilled to attend a special reception honoring University of Delaware seniors who have been accepted into veterinary school this fall! 🐾

Several members of the DVMA Executive Board had the distinct pleasure of joining these outstanding students to celebrate this incredible milestone in their journeys toward becoming veterinarians. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with the next generation of veterinary professionals — the future colleagues, innovators, and advocates for animal health in our state and beyond.

To each and every one of you heading off to vet school this fall: we see you, we celebrate you, and we are SO proud of you. The hard work, dedication, and passion that brought you to this moment is just the beginning of an extraordinary career ahead.

The DVMA is committed to supporting veterinary students and new graduates every step of the way. We look forward to welcoming you into the profession and watching you thrive!

Yesterday, the Delaware Veterinary Medical Association's Government Relations Committee had the privilege of hosting legislators and legislative staff for a special luncheon at Legislative Hall.

These gatherings are more than just a meal — they are an invaluable opportunity to build meaningful relationships with the individuals who shape policy in our state. Conversations like these help ensure that the voices of Delaware's veterinary community are heard where it matters most.

We are grateful to all who joined us and look forward to continuing to strengthen these important connections. Together, we can advocate effectively for the animals and pet owners we serve.
