Part of Mars Veterinary Health.
Scale context
Wider Mars Veterinary Health network: around 2,500 veterinary clinics and hospitals in over 20 countries (network-wide, not a Linnaeus-only count).
* Some figures come from secondary reporting of company accounts or investor materials. They are context, not rankings.
Useful context
Linnaeus sits within Mars Veterinary Health's wider veterinary business.
Questions worth asking
Ask whether referrals, diagnostics or specialist services are provided within the wider group.
Suggested prompts for your own enquiries - this does not imply any practice is doing something wrong.
WisePet dataset snapshot
217 physical practices in our current dataset matched to this group.
This is not a UK-wide total - only practices we match in the current snapshot.
Ownership structures can change. Ownership alone does not determine clinical quality, price, or suitability for your pet.
