Chey HEAD OF PEOPLE SUPPORT, VETPARTNERS MATTHEW'S STORY OLIVIA'S STORY NURSES STORIES LILLY'S STORY Our culture Our ways of working. We’re called VetPartners because we believe in working in true partnership with our family of practices. Our team care for people, their pets and our profession, and have created a culture of warmth and belonging. No two practices are the same. We embrace and encourage that independent spirit, while at the same time supporting practices to provide outstanding care for patients and an excellent service for clients. Our aim is to be the veterinary group of choice for both practices and employees and we do that by being a great place to work, expanding our business through the attraction and acquisition of desirable practices and developing the business in an efficient, ethical, sustainable and profitable way. We develop individuals, practices and teams through investing in our people with high quality training and CPD and investing in our clinics by providing the latest technology, equipment and facilities. While we have a clear line management structure, everyone makes the tea at VetPartners!
