Build Ownership Without Building Alone

Practice ownership can feel like a dream until you realize how isolating it can be.

Owning a veterinary practice requires leadership, financial oversight, team development, vendor negotiations, marketing strategy, and constant operational management, all while maintaining exceptional patient care.

Legacy Veterinary Group’s Pathway to Partnership Program was built to make ownership attainable, structured, and supported.

The Benefits of Co-Ownership

With Legacy Veterinary Group, co-ownership means true partnership — not corporate oversight.

What You Gain:

  • Freedom to focus on practicing medicine
  • Structured path to ownership without isolation
  • Proven revenue systems to improve profitability
  • Centralized operational support backed by over 70 years of combined experience
  • Input and approval on all major decisions

The Pathway to Partnership Program (P2 Program)

The P2 Program is designed to reward, retain, and empower high-performing doctors. It provides a structured way to build equity without large out-of-pocket investments.

Key Advantages:

  • Equity earned through a structured pathway
  • Ownership growth over a three-year period
  • Compensation structured to support wealth-building
  • Potential tax-shielded and deferred income advantages

The goal is for the doctor to achieve up to a 20% ownership stake within three years.

Partner Agreement Example

Chief of Staff Role

During the pathway period, the doctor functions as Chief of Staff and oversees medical and surgical standards, clinical leadership, and staff development, while Legacy manages business operations.

Partner Agreement Example

Qualifying Period

A six-month qualifying period is required prior to entering the formal pathway. Following the qualification, a customized three-year pathway plan is executed and incorporated into the employment agreement.

Goals are centered around revenue growth, professional development, and staff enrichment.
