We’re excited to share that @Veterinary Practice Partners has grown by more than 50% this past year, with more than 140 locations across 27 states today! Our tremendous growth is made possible by our community’s enthusiasm for our unique co-ownership model, which allows veterinarians to co-own practices with VPP and take advantage of the development and mentorship opportunities we offer. We’re proud to support doctor partners in our community so that they can focus on providing exceptional care for pets across the country. Thank you to all the veterinarians and partners in our community for making this possible! Read the full announcement linked below!
When asked what attracted her to a partnership with VPP, Dr. Vitulli said: “My animal hospital, Caring Hands, grew from a company of five staff and one location to more than 250 staff, eight locations, and seven partners. Over time, achieving our vision of creating ownership opportunities for veterinarians became more difficult as Caring Hands grew more complex and struggled operationally. So, we started looking for a company that shared our vision and mission – one that could help us specifically with HR, recruiting, organizational challenges, and continued growth. We were fortunate that we became partners with VPP in April 2023. VPP offered us a true partnership model, where we retain clinical autonomy, brand integrity, our culture, while gaining operational support to secure our long-term legacy."

The VPP Practice Manager Academy: Fostering Leadership and Building Community Over two consecutive weeks, the VPP Practice Manager Academy brought together 100 veterinary practice managers from across the country, spanning sessions in Dallas and Charlotte. The purpose of this academy is not only to introduce or reinforce essential skills and knowledge but also to help cultivate a solid and supportive community of leaders within our organization. The first iteration of VPP Practice Manager Academy was a gigantic success, thanks to the commitment and hard work of everyone involved. This represents a first step in our journey as a community to blaze a trail in the #VetMed industry as we all work together to be the change we want to see.
It was great meeting all the students at the Lincoln Memorial CVM career expo! Special thanks to our wonderful Student Ambassador, Natalie Morelli, for helping. If you’re interested in externships, please email Ross Powell at rpowell@vetpartners.com.
