About
American Veterinary Group (AVG) is a growing family of veterinary hospitals founded by veterinarians in 2015, committed to putting people and the pets they love first. Headquartered in Tampa, Florida, AVG operates over 190 general practice and UrgentVet hospitals across 13 states throughout the United States. The company delivers high touch practice management solutions to help veterinarians at all stages of their careers focus on the needs of their patients instead of the demands of running a business. AVG provides comprehensive administrative and operational support including in-office staff training, educational and marketing tools, back office support, and ongoing in-person assistance. Their approach preserves the unique culture and medical autonomy of each hospital while providing the infrastructure needed for sustainable growth. Operating with the motto 'pet first, client first,' American Veterinary Group serves as a flexible partner for veterinary business owners ranging from younger veterinarians looking to invest in a practice to experienced practitioners preparing for retirement. The company also operates UrgentVet clinics, which bridge the gap between daytime general practice and emergency care by offering after-hours treatment for common urgent conditions without the additional expense of emergency clinic fees.
