I was a manager with Vetcor from 2013 to 2018. I left to pursue other options and found myself working as a Hospital Manager for another veterinary corporation. I soon discovered that the grass is not always greener on the other side and they could not meet the outstanding resources, guidance, tools, training, etc. that Vetcor offered me as an HM. I was thrilled to be given the opportunity to return to Vetcor in an HM role in December 2022.
From providing a wonderful Regional Manager who will take my call when I need her assistance, to the Skyworld Knowledge Center and now Vetcor University, I have all the support I need to successfully guide me in my role as HM.
As a VetCor HM, we have the benefit of a huge network of support from our regional manager to HR to other VetCor HM's. What I really love is the Knowledge Center. It is an endless, one-stop-shop, resource of everything VetCor. We have direct access at our finger tips to find answers to daily questions that come up, get help from all departments, see invoices, payments, and even our PNL! It is an amazing resource!
As an HM for Vetcor I have found an abundance of support from our Regional Manager, Laura Mays. She has helped us transition smoothly and has encouraged a better life-work balance for our teams and for me personally. For the first time in my career, I feel like I have "permission" to take a day off. Not that I wasn't allowed to prior to Vetcor, but the guilt and worry I had about doing so and possibly leaving a clinic short-staffed was real. Healthy and realistic boundaries are encouraged, especially when it comes to more PTO and benefits for all staff that are better than a private practice can offer.I also love having an entire group of regional HM's to collaborate with for ideas, suggestions and support. No one understands the pressure and role of an HM better than another HM! I absolutely love Vetcor and wouldn't want to be working for any other veterinary corporate entity.
If someone would've told me three years ago that I would be in management at a vet hospital I never would've believed it. The opportunity for career growth is available and absolutely encouraged. Vetcor has helped me see "me" more than I ever have. This has been the highest level of honest support that I have ever encountered. Every day isn't perfect, but there is no where else I'd rather be than with my Vetcor family. I feel like being in this position has definitely pushed me to do more and seek out personal growth and my hope is that I continue to grow within Vetcor.
