Spanning an extensive network of first opinion, referral and out-of-hours clinics and hospitals, our teams deliver the highest quality pet care possible.

Our purpose is simple – healthy animals and happy owners.

Our whole business is built around six key principles

We are the leading global veterinary group because we offer vets and nurses a better way of working and a brighter future.

Belief in people

The success of a practice is down to the individuals that work there. That’s why we invest in continuous professional development for all IVC Evidensia staff. 

Investment in your practice

We invest our money in refurbishments, facilities, equipment and technology so that you can provide the best possible care for our patients. 

Exceptional care

We know your primary concern is delivering the best possible care. That’s why IVC Evidensia practices always put their patients first.

Clinically led practices

We believe that the best practices are led by our vets and we want it to stay that way. That’s why we place so much emphasis on our clinical boards. 

An independent spirit

Your clinic is the heart of your community and we want to stay that way. We always keep the spirit of the original practice intact. 

Sharing expertise

We’re incredibly proud of the depth of talent among our referral clinicians, as well as their state-of-the-art facilities.

Ethical Statement

The IVC Evidensia Ethical Statement outlines the values and responsibilities of our group. It considers our patients, their owners, our staff and colleagues, as well as public health and global sustainability.

These guidelines direct our everyday work as well as policy decision processes and apply to all activities within the company, extending beyond clinical practice. This is not a complete list, rather a template to guide our ideals.
