ABVO is pleased to congratulate the following new ACVO Diplomates from the 2025 ABVO Exam!

This year, 37 candidates have passed all three sections of the 2025 ABVO Examination and were granted ACVO diplomate status in August 2025. They are now officially, 'ophthalmologists', 'specialists', and 'DACVO's' and may use the following ACVO trademarks; 'DACVO' and/or 'Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists' as their credentials. New Diplomates will receive a complimentary membership to the ACVO for the remainder of 2025.

Here is the list of the new diplomates for 2025!

Be sure to read their biographies and thank you notes that will be included in the digital ACVO Membership Meeting agenda packet, which will be distributed to all members in time for the business meeting in Texas! 

To celebrate their accomplishment, the New Diplomate Induction and Celebration is scheduled for the ACVO Conference in Grapevine, TX, on Friday, October 17th, 4:45pm – 5:15pm! All conference attendees, family, and friends are welcome to attend the entire induction and celebration. Guests may be seated in the general session room for the ceremony any time after 4:15pm. Please plan to attend the celebration in support of our New Diplomates!

Reminder: The ACVO AMVM and ABVO Meetings will occur on Saturday morning.

Congratulations new Diplomates!
