Community Veterinary Partners

Community Veterinary Partners (CVP) operates an integrated community of veterinary hospitals that remain under local leadership. Its network spans emergency and urgent care, exotic animal medicine, general practice, large animal, and specialty services. CVP states that medical decisions are made at the local level between the treating doctor and the client, while the corporate organization supplies integrated systems, technology, and expert support so local teams can focus on delivering care.

The company reports a network of 150 locations across 18 states, with more than 600 doctors and more than 3,600 total team members. It also reports that 34% of its hospitals are accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), which it characterizes as more than twice the industry average. Alongside acquiring and partnering with existing hospitals, CVP describes programs aimed at retaining clinical staff, including mentoring and training tracks for veterinarians at all career stages and for practice managers, flexible doctor compensation structures such as Pro-Sal with monthly bonus and monthly reset plus paid time off, monthly performance-based incentives for support staff, medical, mental health and retirement benefits with paid parental leave, paid volunteering time, and an investment program through which doctors and practice managers can participate in the group's financial results.

Business model

CVP partners with or acquires independently owned veterinary hospitals and operates them as part of a shared platform, providing centralized systems, technology, and administrative and clinical support while local leaders retain medical autonomy. Partnership terms are described as tailored to each hospital owner, team, and community.
