Did you know…?
The T.J. Lafeber Avian Practitioner of the Year is nominated by their peers: YOU. The Awardee is NOT, and has never been, selected by Lafeber Company.
This autonomous committee, consisting of Association of Avian Veterinarians members, is led by Dr. Kenneth Welle, Professor and Chief of the Zoological Medicine Service at the University of Illinois School of Veterinary Medicine. A Lafeber Company Veterinary Consultant, who does NOT vote on the Award recipient, manages committee paperwork and scheduling only.
