[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am new to DC and started bringing my dog to one vet practice but feel distrustful of all the "recommended" services, and exorbitant fees, which are all new and have never been brought up with our previous independent vet. I have read that Mars and/or PE are buying up many vet practices, and I have a feeling this is where I have found myself. I would like to move to a small, independent practice, but I'm not sure how to tell which practices locally are independently owned. I would greatly appreciate it if someone has a specific recommendation - where they know the vet. https://www.thenation.com/article/economy/private-equity-pets-veterinarian/ https://observer.com/2023/03/veterinary-practices-are-increasingly-corporately-owned-and-pets-owners-pay-the-price/[/quote] PE is buying up everything - including housing and independently owned HVAC and other mom and pop shops. It is very frustrating![/quote]
