VSPA is about Connections!
To be able to talk to other people and practices that are going through the same dilemmas, trials, and tribulations – as well as the rewards of private specialty practice.

I love these people!
VSPA has provided a safe place to have difficult conversations about the challenges of practice ownership. I never feel alone and am so grateful for the relationships that I have developed in the veterinary management field. I love these people!

Craft solutions to real-time hurdles
I am a member of VSPA to discuss problems and craft solutions to real-time hurdles that private veterinary practices face. I most enjoy networking with colleagues, vendors, and getting to discuss both personal and professional challenges.

VSPA members are quick to reach out to assist in any way possible.
My name is Shawn Wilson, and I own Mountain View Animal Emergency in Hagerstown, MD. We have been an ER-only facility for over fifteen years and have recently begun the journey to grow into a referral center. The pressures of corporate medicine, the changing face of veterinary medicine, and the dwindling workforce have made this evolution quite difficult. Our practice recently joined VSPA and immediately, it has become an invaluable resource to our management team. We are now part of a community that truly leans on one another to support, educate, encourage, and collaborate. VSPA members are quick to reach out to assist in any way possible. No one holds back when discussing difficult topics or giving much-needed feedback. You are not getting part of the information or platitudes. They are working with you to help improve your practice in every way possible. I only hope that I can be the same resource for others as my entire hospital and I continue to grow with our VSPA family.
