55 locally owned practices across the D.C. metro area
An "Independently-Owned Practice" is one where the clinic is owned by one or more founding veterinarians, rather than a national chain or a private equity firm. A growing share of veterinary clinics in the U.S. are owned by such large chains.
At VetFairly, we don't believe that either model is inherently better, and there are undeniable advantages to the scale and funding that can come with the backing of a larger company. But we also know that many D.C.-area pet owners seek out the personalized care and flexibility of an independently-owned, neighborhood vet. If knowing who owns your vet matters to you, this page lists every practice on VetFairly that identifies itself as independently or locally owned.
Sometimes, corporate ownership is clear from the name--for example, the Veterinary Clinical Associates (VCA) chain, which is itself owned by the Mars Group. But other times, there's no change to the practice's name or signage, so ownership isn't always easy to spot from the outside.
A practice appears here when its own website describes it as independently, locally, or veterinarian-owned. We can't independently audit ownership structures, and practices do change hands without any public announcement.
