What Partnership Means to Us

Our doctor partners don’t sell their practices — they co-own them with VPP.  By offering a true partnership model, VPP enables veterinarians to retain clinical autonomy and brand identity while gaining the operational and strategic support to reach their potential. VPP is also committed to the success of veterinarians by offering multiple pathways to partnership through tailored co-ownership opportunities.
