The American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) and MentorVet have partnered to deliver a new mentorship program: MentorVet Lead for New Diplomates. The program is sponsored by Chewy Health, the dedicated healthcare arm of Chewy, which funded the development of this exciting new program and plans to provide scholarships to participants on an ongoing basis. Designed for ACVIM Diplomates who have become Board-certified in the past five years, MentorVet Lead will deliver the peer support, coaching, and mentorship needed by new ACVIM specialists to thrive.
