Meet the team

XLVets is a community of independently-owned veterinary practices. We believe, by working together, we can achieve so much more.

A group of six people are gathered around a table, examining cards and discussing ideas. Some individuals appear engaged and are pointing at specific cards. They are in a conference setting, with name badges visible on their clothing.
