We're a nonprofit organization (Animal Humane Advocacy) that has successfully hosted low-cost vaccination and wellness clinics for years, serving pet owners who otherwise would not have access to basic veterinary care. Our longtime veterinarian, who generously supported this work, is now retiring, and we are seeking a new licensed veterinarian to partner with us so these critical clinics can continue.
That said, we'd genuinely appreciate insight from others in the animal welfare and veterinary communities. From your experience, have you encountered veterinarians who view nonprofit clinics as a threat to their business? If so, how have you successfully addressed that concern and built trust and collaboration?
If you are a veterinarian-or know one-who believes access to care and private practice can coexist, we would love to connect. Collaboration, not competition, is the goal. Thank you for your insight, experience, and referrals as we work to keep this essential service available to our community.
