How many Veterinarians are there in the U.S.?
10 years ago there were more than 50,000 veterinarians professionally active in the United States, of that 75% are in private clinical practice but that the percentage has declined to 66% today although there are more than 86, 000 vets today. More and more are going into other fields like, teaching, research, government service, public health, military service, private industry, and other areas. There are currently more male veterinarians but that number is bound to change since currently over 60% of those attending vet school today are women.
