The American Association of Equine Practitioners, in conjunction with Bayer Healthcare Animal Health, recently launched its new and improved GET-A-DVM locator service. This online service allows horse owners to locate AAEP-member veterinarians quickly and easily anywhere in the world.

The GET-A-DVM search engine has been updated to include advance search options such as practice type and services offered, and is updated daily to ensure the information listed for each AAEP member is current. Horse owners can access the GET-A-DVM service by visiting www.aaep.org/horseownerand clicking on “Find a DVM in Your Area” on the “May We Help You” menu.

As a world leader in animal health, Bayer HealthCare Animal Health is committed to providing products and educational programs for veterinarians and horse owners alike. Bayer collaborates with the AAEP on a variety of educational initiatives, including the popular series of client education brochures. Additionally, Bayer exclusively sponsors two of AAEP's continuing education meetings (Focus and Resort Symposium) for veterinarians each year.

The American Association of Equine Practitioners, headquartered in Lexington, Ky., was founded in 1954 as a non-profit organization dedicated to the health and welfare of the horse. Currently, the AAEP reaches more than 5 million horse owners through its nearly 10,000 members worldwide and is actively involved in ethics issues, practice management, research and continuing education in the equine veterinary profession and horse industry.
