Who We Are

Vets in England operates almost 200 websites helping animal owners find and choose the right vet for them. We build technology that helps independent veterinary practices compete on trust, clarity, and transparency — the same principles now mandated by the CMA. This helps you attract new clients with better public information, while giving your team less day-to-day friction and clients a more consistent experience. We shape our strategy with independent practices through our Tech Steering Group.

Our Mission

Vets in England exists to make it easier for pet owners to choose a local vet with confidence, while helping veterinary practices present accurate, transparent information in one place. We bring key information together so people can compare clinics fairly — location, services, animals treated, reviews, prices, and our unique Our Score.

The CMA's reforms align directly with what we've been building: a single, consistent view of veterinary care across England that helps practices build trust, meet transparency requirements, reduce admin friction, and give clients a better experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the CMA report mean for my practice?
The CMA has concluded a two-year investigation into the UK veterinary market. The result is a set of legally binding reforms that require practices to publish comprehensive price lists, disclose ownership (independent or corporate), provide written estimates for treatments over £500, cap prescription fees, show pet plan breakdowns, and maintain a transparent complaints process. These are enforced by the RCVS and will apply to all practices — independent and corporate alike.
When do I need to comply?
The CMA has six months to finalise legally binding Orders — by September 2026. After that, most remedies must be implemented within 3–12 months. Smaller practices get an additional 3 months beyond larger businesses. The sooner you start publishing your information, the smoother the transition.
Does Vets in England handle the pricing requirements for me?
Yes. Our Pricing Network uses standardised treatment names so pet owners can compare services fairly across practices. You publish your prices once through your dashboard, and they're formatted for compliance and distributed via our open API to your profile, your managed website, comparison services, and AI tools — no duplicated data entry.
Do I need to change my signage for ownership disclosure?
If your practice is part of a corporate group, the CMA requires disclosure on physical signage, at the premises, and online. Vets in England already labels every clinic's ownership status on your profile, directory listing, managed website, and API — so the online side is covered. Physical signage will need to be arranged by the practice.
Is claiming my clinic free?
Yes, claiming your clinic profile is completely free. You can update your information, respond to reviews, and manage your listing at no cost.
How do you verify me?
Claiming is verified by clinic email match, so please register your claim with the email address associated your clinic where possible. Manual verification is available for different email addresses and group practices.
What if I have multiple branches?
You can claim and manage multiple branch locations under one account. Each branch will have its own profile page with location-specific information and reviews.
Does claiming guarantee a higher score?
Claiming your clinic doesn't automatically increase your score, but it gives you the tools to improve it. By updating your profile, responding to reviews, and keeping information current, you can positively influence your Our Score over time.
Is the new website really free?
Yes. Members of our Tech Steering Group receive a free website refresh. This helps us get new technology into your hands quickly for testing.
