  2. Right-click the map pin or the exact location.
  3. Click the first line of numbers to copy the coordinates.
  4. Paste the first number as latitude and the second as longitude.

You can leave these blank if you are not sure.

Independent veterinary practice

For this site, we define an independent veterinary practice as one that is:

  • Independently owned and controlled by local veterinarians, founders, employees, or community-based owners.
  • Free to make its own decisions regarding patient care, staffing, pricing, and practice operations.
  • Not part of a large corporate veterinary chain, consolidator, or investor-controlled network.
  • Maintains meaningful local autonomy rather than operating under centralized corporate management.
  • Focused on serving its patients, clients, staff, and community as a locally led practice.
  • Submitted practices will be cross checked against the Private Equity Vet list.

Why independent ownership matters

Independent practices can make decisions locally, build lasting relationships with their communities and keep veterinary leadership close to patient care. Our goal is to make those practices easier to find.

VClaimed practice
A practice representative has claimed the profile and attested to its ownership.

VVerified independent
Ownership has been reviewed against the information available to us.

Unverified listing
Not listed in our corporate ownership database; appears independent, but we have not yet verified its ownership.

Public information can be incomplete or out of date. Our verification is not a medical-quality endorsement, and it is always reasonable to ask a practice directly about its ownership. If something looks wrong, please let us know.
