Scott McClure, DVM, PhD, Dipl. ACVS, ACVSMR, an equine veterinarian at Iowa State’s Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center, has earned board certification from the American College of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation. He is the first Iowa veterinarian to earn this certification.

For McClure who is also a board-certified equine surgeon, the additional certification is a perfect fit with his interest and experience with equine athletes. When asked why he pursued this specialty, McClure said, “The combination of specialties provides me with a unique insight into the performance horse and mechanisms to maintain healthy athletes to compete in their disciplines.”
