A Pennsylvania veterinarian's public reprimand by the State Board of Veterinary Medicine was overturned by a Commonwealth Court panel, according to the Associated Press.

The court ruled that his conduct was unprofessional, but that unprofessional conduct isn't the same as professional incompetency.
