The CMA Investigation into the Veterinary Profession

Date: 15 Aug 2024
By: admin
Tags: News

There’s been a lot of talk recently about the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) investigation into the veterinary profession. As a local veterinary practice, we’d like to share our perspective on this important issue and highlight what sets us apart from the large corporate groups.

We believe we offer strong competition to the large corporates owned by huge multinational companies or massive private equity firms. Our pricing is highly competitive, and we pride ourselves on being transparent about our costs. You can find our pricelist here , and we are always happy to provide estimates for any work needed. Our popular VIP healthcare plan provides even more value, ensuring your pets receive the best care without breaking the bank.

Our practice is owned by two experienced vets who are not accountable to shareholders or investors. They established the company with the mission to put the interests of pets first. This independence allows us to reinvest in our practice continually, ensuring we provide optimal care. We boast excellent and experienced teams, cutting-edge equipment, and around-the-clock 24-hour care for your pets.

We are proud to be recognized as a fantastic alternative to the corporate ownership model. In fact, the CMA recently selected us to take over some practices from Medivet, highlighting our commitment to maintaining high standards of veterinary care.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to ensure your pets receive the best possible care.

You can read our full CMA Response here.

Thank you for trusting us with your pet’s health.
