Deadline for Find a Vet update extended
The deadline for veterinary practices to update their details with the RCVS for the online tool Find a Vet has been extended following feedback from the profession.
An online veterinary practice database, Find a Vet allows users to search for veterinary practices by name, location, postcode or RCVS accreditation. It also finds veterinary nurse training practices and those offering work experience placements to undergraduates.
Initially, the deadline for practices to confirm or update their details with the RCVS was December 13, however remarks from some respondents have prompted the college to extend this deadline to the end of January 2014.
Nicola South, customer experience manager for the college, said: "There has been an excellent response so far with approximately 3,000 of the around 5,000 practice premises on Find a Vet having confirmed their details, so thank you to all those who have contacted us.
"However, following comments from many of those who have responded, we have decided to extend the deadline to allow as many practices as possible to remain on Find a Vet, as it is an excellent resource for both members of the public and the profession alike."
Forms for updating Find a Vet details were posted to practices. In order to stay on Find a Vet, practices must return this form by Friday, January 31, 2014.
To request a new form or further information, contact the registration department on 0207 202 0767 or via email.
The BSAVA has opened submissions for the BSAVA Clinical Research Abstracts 2026.
