Partner Veterinarian

Our client is a father‑son duo that partners with entrepreneurial veterinarians to acquire and operate practices for long‑term success. Their mission is to help veterinarians achieve ownership while keeping practices independent. If you are looking to step out of an employed role and into a true partnership/co‑ownership position, this is a rare opportunity. Backed by personal family capital and over 40 years of veterinary ownership experience, they provide a genuine alternative to corporate groups and private equity‑backed organisations. Unlike traditional routes to ownership, you’ll benefit from significant financial backing, requiring minimal personal capital, while gaining access to operational, clinical, and strategic support to help you succeed long term. The hospital will operate as a full‑service facility with routine general practice hours. Scheduling will be a collaborative discussion between you and your co‑owners, ensuring it meets the needs of the local community while supporting an excellent work/life balance. Role Description and Responsibilities As a Partner Veterinarian and Co‑Owner, you will lead your hospital as Medical Director, maintaining clinical autonomy while shaping the direction of the practice. Your responsibilities will include delivering high‑quality medical, surgical, and dental care; leading and developing a positive, high‑performing team culture; mentoring veterinarians and support staff; overseeing client experience and clinical standards; collaborating with your partners on key business functions including accounting, marketing, and recruitment. Alongside your clinical leadership, you can play a key role in the business, supported by experienced partners who provide hands‑on guidance in areas such as operations, finance, and growth strategy, allowing you to focus on both patient care and long‑term success. Whether you already have a hospital in mind or are looking for the right opportunity, this private two‑person team will be your direct partner in acquiring an established practice; this removes the uncertainty and delays of a start‑up model, allowing you to step directly into ownership without the risks of a de novo build. Importantly to the team’s broader mission, it also preserves independent hospitals from one generation of local DVM owners to the next. Your partners will fund the vast majority of the acquisition up front, minimizing your capital requirement and working with you to achieve your desired equity share over an agreed‑upon timeframe. Their vision is to collaborate directly with you as Medical Director & Co‑Owner to achieve sustainable, long‑term growth, and private ownership of the practice. Team As the lead Veterinarian and Co‑Owner, you will have the opportunity to step into your newly‑acquired practice and develop the team and culture as needed. This could include hiring additional veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and support staff who align with yours and your partners’ vision, culture, and values. Your partners will manage the recruitment process and team development, helping to ensure a strong, engaged workforce from day one.
