Leadership Team

One good way to judge a veterinary network is by the individuals who lead it. In the case of PetVet Care Centers, we are fortunate to have the services of renowned pet care executives who provide us with unrivaled experience and expertise as they guide our network through accelerated growth.

How Gino Supports Our Hospitals:

  • Sets the standard of veterinary quality that guides our network
  • Leads the acquisition team
  • Accurately appraises hospitals and properly compensates sellers

  • "For most veterinarians, selling their practice is about much more than the money. That’s why we treat every seller as an individual, and really listen to what matters to them."
