CityVet was founded on the core principle of putting people first, regardless if it’s our clients, staff, or veterinarians. When we do the right thing for them, and treat their pets as our own, it enables us to provide best in class veterinarian care. That north star is not only what attracted me to CityVet but remains my mission as we continue to serve our veterinarians, staff and customers.
