About Galaxy Vets
Galaxy Vets is an employee-owned veterinary urgent care group. Founded in 2021, we are building and operating urgent care practices across the U.S. and Canada, offering a new way for veterinary professionals to become business owners with zero upfront investment.
Our partnership model prioritizes burnout prevention and is designed for entrepreneurial veterinarians.
