How it works
- Apply by email with your registration details and areas of interest.
- We check the RCVS register and your declaration of interests, then agree the guides you would like to review.
- You review in your own time: approve, correct, or decline.
- We publish your corrections with a “Clinically reviewed by” credit and date on that version only.
- Stay current: when a reviewed guide changes substantially, we ask you to re-review before your credit stays.
Independence rules
- Reviewers approve clinical accuracy only, never products, affiliate links or paid listings.
- Joining the panel never changes a practice's position or labels in the directory.
- Declared interests appear on each reviewer's public profile.
- You can withdraw your name from any guide, or leave the panel, at any time.
- Read our editorial policy and how we make money.

Email your applicationFrequently Asked Questions
- Is the review panel paid?
- No. The panel is voluntary. Reviewers receive named credit on the guides they review and a public reviewer profile, and can stop at any time. Nobody pays to join, and joining does not change a practice's position in the directory.
- Who can join?
- Veterinary surgeons and registered veterinary nurses currently on the RCVS register and practising in the UK. We check every applicant's register entry before listing them, and ask for a short declaration of interests such as employer group or industry sponsorship.
- What does a clinical review involve?
- You read a guide in your area, check its advice against current evidence and UK practice, and send corrections or approve it. We make every correction you request before your name appears, and a guide only shows your credit for the version you approved, with the date.
- Do reviewers endorse products or the directory?
- No. Reviewers approve clinical accuracy only. Affiliate links, paid listings and commercial partners are handled separately by the editorial team, and reviewers can ask for their name to be removed from any page at any time.
- How many guides are there to review?
- There are 276 guides covering dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small pets, horses and farm animals, with emergency and poisoning guides reviewed first.
