agree  B D Finch: I was going to comment that this was US terminology, but I checked and the term "veterinarian" now seems to be in common, official use in the UK too. http://www.defra.gov.uk/foodfarm/policy/animalhealth/vservic...

  -> thank you BD Finch - it's a better descriptor of the wide variety of tasks and roles of this type of veterinarian, rather than simply as meat or facilities inspector
