I went to vet school because I wanted to be a veterinarian, but found myself being a business manager a whole lot more than I wanted so I sold my business but stayed on to practice medicine. Destination Pet has done everything they have promised and never treated us like a number. I’m still doing the same thing day to day as far as practicing, but not being pulled in multiple directions to try and manage the business side. I am far less stressed and feel like I’m able to give more emotionally to my clients, patients and staff. The weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Now I just get to come to work and be a doctor.

From our first meeting with Destination Pet, we were struck by their integrity and enthusiasm. As the sale progressed, we found that everyone in the organization shared the same commitment to excellence and love for animals. When the sale hit a snag due to issues with our landlord, they persevered, stuck by us, and saw it through, resulting in a deal that worked for all parties involved - including said landlord. We were beyond impressed by their willingness to work the problem. Moving forward, we were equally impressed with the Regional Manager and Regional Veterinary Director assigned to our clinic, and the team working on the subsequent buildout of our facility. They have treated our employees wonderfully and the transition has been smooth. Selling to Destination Pet was the best decision we ever made for our business. Our only regret is that we didn’t do it years ago.
