This spring, we’re highlighting the wide range of patients cared for across our VPP hospitals — including pocket pets and exotics. From bunnies and a tamarin to a skunk in a cowboy hat, six hospitals shared a glimpse into the unique and meaningful work their teams do every day. We’re proud to support practices that care for all kinds of patients.
💌 Love is definitely in the air with our VPP Student Ambassadors! 💌 Our annual Valentine’s card exchange was a sweet success across veterinary school campuses, bringing smiles to classrooms, common spaces, and everywhere in between. Our Ambassadors truly showed what it means to share the VPP spirit. Huge thanks to our amazing Student Ambassadors for your creativity, energy, and heart. You’re shaping the future of veterinary medicine—and it’s looking pretty sweet. 🐾 Thinking ahead to summer externships or seasonal opportunities? We’re here to help. Questions or want to learn more?

That’s a wrap on WVC 🎬 Thank you to everyone who stopped by the booth to connect and try their hand at the claw machine. We’re already looking ahead to next year.
Great medicine starts with empowered leaders. Dr. Lili Becktell knew the kind of care she wanted to bring to her community — better medicine, better treatment, and a better experience for both people and their pets. What she needed was a partner who could give her the confidence, support, and space to scale that vision. At VPP, we believe in walking alongside veterinarians, not in front of them. For Dr. Becktell, that meant gaining the tools, mentorship, and trust to grow Epic Tails Veterinary Clinic without compromising the values that matter most. When leaders feel supported, their impact expands — for their teams, their patients, and their communities.
Starting WVC with leadership that leads by example — including our CEO, John McDonough, who joined us on Day 1. A powerful reminder of what partnership, purpose, and people‑first culture look like at VPP. 💚
We are excited to share the new VPP brand, a refreshed identity that reflects the heart of our community and the work we feel called to do. Our actions, our relationships, and the way we care for people and their animals are what define us. This new brand gives visual expression to the warmth, dedication, and purpose that already guide our work every day. The updated brand identity and the new VPP Paw highlight our focus on the people who care for animals and the meaningful connections that grow from that work. Together these elements reflect our mission: keeping veterinary medicine in the hands of veterinary professionals, sparking joy in the human animal bond, and finding fulfillment in one another’s success. Unleash Your Potential.

That’s a wrap on our 2025 Fall Leadership Academy! From doctor partners to our Home Team, thank you to all of our VPP leaders who participated in this program. Our culture shines when we connect, collaborate, and grow together. The VPP Leadership Academy is a professional development program designed to strengthen leadership and business skills for our partners, practice managers, and doctors on the path to partnership. Participants gain practical tools in strategy, finance, and team leadership, plus insights into emotional intelligence and decision-making, that help them drive growth and lead effectively in a hospital setting.
Our best days are yet to come ✨ Thank you to our VPP partners, hospital teams, and leaders for taking the time to join us in Orlando this year for Homecoming - our annual celebration of the people, partnerships, and shared purpose that make our community thrive. Homecoming 2025 was a reminder of what makes our community so powerful. We gathered to reflect on our journey, to celebrate how far we’ve come this year, and to ask ourselves one important question: How do we scale without losing our soul? Through honest conversations, shared stories, and moments of connection, we were reminded that growth means more than numbers - it’s about protecting the spirit of partnership, trust, and care that fosters our culture.
What an incredible weekend! Thank you to everyone who made VPP Homecoming 2025 such a memorable experience. 💚 From inspiring student panels and engaging breakout sessions to carnival fun, this weekend had it all. We’re so grateful for each and every one of you - you make this community truly special!
