Residents of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons (ACVS) are veterinarians who have chosen to pursue additional training in veterinary surgery. Over 225 residents are actively working to complete the residency program requirements established by ACVS, and training programs are located in schools and colleges of veterinary medicine as well as veterinary practices.

Completing an ACVS residency program is just one stage of the rigorous process of pursuing board certification in veterinary surgery.
