Questions worth asking

Ask how pricing, referrals and medicine policies are decided locally versus by the wider group.

These are suggested questions for your own enquiries. They do not imply any practice is doing something wrong.

Ownership data caveat

Ownership structures can change as groups acquire or divest practices. The data on this page is from available sources and may not reflect the most recent corporate changes. If you believe information is incorrect, please report incorrect information.

Ownership alone does not determine clinical quality, price or suitability for your pet. Use ownership as one input alongside price, services, opening hours, reviews and your own experience.
