Veterinarian (DVM) license lookup in Colorado

6,147 active licenses carry this exact DORA type — the 26th most numerous of the 92 with a page here, across 290 Colorado cities.

What this license is

Veterinarian is one of the 202 license types the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies issues, in the Veterinary family. Practising a regulated profession in Colorado without a current license is unlawful, which is why DORA publishes this register for the public to check.

Often written DVM. This is the page for a Colorado veterinary license lookup or verification; the license is issued under the Colorado State Board of Veterinary Medicine, within DORA.

When this license has to be renewed

DORA renews this type on a two year cycle , in even years, with the license expiring on 31-Oct. That date is the same for everyone holding it — which is why 6,147 renewals fall due together every October.

DORA publishes this in a 344-row table of codes. It is not published anywhere as a calendar. The whole calendar, month by month.

395 of the 6,147 active licenses of this type carry a disciplinary action in DORA's file — 6.4%.

This site publishes that count and no more: never who, and never a case number. DORA records the type of action and no reason at all, and the two most common entries statewide are a stipulation and a letter of admonition — agreed outcomes. Every license counted here is active. Why that line is drawn there.
