Based in Birmingham, Alabama, Southern Veterinary Partners is a veterinarian owned and operated a regional network of animal hospitals in the Southeast with a goal of providing the highest quality veterinary care to companion animals with exceptional client experience.

Jay Price, DVM and CEO of Southern Veterinary Partners says, “In under two years, Southern Veterinary Partners has become the largest veterinary management company based in the Southeast.  With this move into Georgia, we now have hospitals across 7 states in the Southeast. Murrayville Veterinary Clinic and Inman Park Animal Hospital’s veterinarians and staff can now remove the burden of back-office operations and administration and instead direct their focus to their clients and patients.”

Southern Veterinary Partners welcomes Dr. Jane White and her Associate Veterinarians Dr. Susan Hanson, Dr. Liane Miller and Dr. Bradley Buckallew from Murrayville Veterinary Clinic and Dr. Kevin Fowler and his staff at Inman Park Animal Hospital.

Dr. Jane White, former owner of Murrayville Veterinary Clinic says, “While considering my transition, I anticipated I would join another organization.  But after meeting Southern Veterinary Partners, my mind was made that they were the right fit for my hospital.  With Southern Veterinary Partners, I feel supported and that my hospital will be enhanced with their continuing education, benefits, and ability to network with peers for best practices. I appreciate their resources but enjoy they are not too big that I am lost in the mix. They give me the autonomy to practice medicine and allow Murrayville Veterinary Clinic to retain its identity.  Southern Veterinary Partners understands our individual needs and culture and is a Southern group that speaks our language.”  

Southern Veterinary Partners provides centralized support for the animal hospitals in its network including marketing, HR, finance and inventory and purchasing management.

The hospitals retain their names, culture and local commitment to their communities as well as veterinarians and staff that provide their clients with high-quality veterinary care. Southern Veterinary Partners believes that leveraging its infrastructure allows the hospitals in its network to focus on medicine and their patients to facilitate best-in-class veterinary services and exceptional client experiences.
