Two entities together bolster their shared mission of accelerating medical innovation and providing compassionate care
National Veterinary Associates (NVA)—a global pet care organization and community of veterinary hospitals and pet resorts—has announced it has closed the transaction reported previously with Ethos Veterinary Health (Ethos), an innovative veterinary organization focused on emergency and specialty medicine.
According to an association release,1 Ethos will work in tandem with NVA Compassion-First, NVA’s dedicated specialty and emergency care group, to achieve their aligned mission of medical innovation and using compassionate care to enhance the lives of veterinarians, patients, and their families.
“We are thrilled to welcome Ethos to NVA as we advance our mission to build the premier veterinary community rooted in collaboration, innovation and advanced medicine,” expressed Greg Hartmann, CEO of NVA, in the release.
“Ethos’ passion and commitment to transforming medicine through the clinical research of Ethos Discovery and the VetBloom education programs will create exciting opportunities for our veterinary teams and enhance our ability to deliver world-class care for pets and their families. I am excited to see the benefits this partnership will bring to patients and the broader veterinary community for many years to come,” he added.1
Ethos was initiated in 2015 following the merger of 4 specialty veterinary groups, and since has become a key player through a united vision of reimagining veterinary medicine. Along with high-quality care it offers pets and clients, Ethos also prioritizes medical innovation and continuing education through initiatives such as Ethos Discovery and VetBloom.1
“By partnering with NVA’s innovative, compassionate and talented team and combining our knowledge and resources, we will be better able to meet the evolving needs of our clients, partners and local communities,” said G. Ames Prentiss, CEO of Ethos. “NVA’s shared commitment to medical innovation, collaborative operating approach and desire to advance the veterinary profession creates a strong foundation to support Ethos’ next chapter.”1
