About this directory

This directory is built from a dataset of corporate- and private-equity-owned veterinary practices. It does not yet include independently owned practices, so it is not a complete list of veterinarians in any area. Ownership is shown on every listing.

  • Repeated vomiting, or vomiting with no appetite

  • A swollen, hard or painful abdomen
  • Pale, white or yellow gums
  • Collapse, seizures or sudden weakness
  • Heavy bleeding, or a wound that gapes
  • Known contact with something toxic
