Find vet clinics
Find veterinary clinics by location, size, and ownership
Veterinary care has been consolidating for a decade. Whether a clinic is still independent decides who can sign, and it is rarely visible from the name on the door.
Ownership is the first question in this market, not the last. An independent hospital buys software in one conversation with the owning vet. A clinic acquired by a national group kept its sign, its phone number, and its website, and cannot buy anything without a regional office you were never talking to.
That fact is partly recoverable without guessing. A clinic whose site sits on a parent domain, whose address carries a group company record, or whose staff list names a regional manager is almost never independent. Each of those is a column, and the row ends up with an ownership verdict you can inspect rather than a hunch.
The rest is standard local sourcing. Listings come from Open Web Ninja with Serper filling the gaps, People Data Labs supplies the group layer, Blitz API runs the email column, and ClearoutPhone grades the number so the front desk is reachable.
Example searches
Ask for it the way you'd say it
Every search below runs on the same hosted Tables, with the cost previewed before anything is spent.
Independent, not group-owned
veterinary hospitals in the carolinas that are not part of a national chain
Ownership is written as its own verdict with the evidence behind it, and clinics that stay ambiguous are marked ambiguous.
Size by vets on staff
clinics with at least three veterinarians and their own surgical suite
Staff counts come from the team page and are stored with the date they were read, since vet rosters turn over quickly.
Emergency and specialty
animal hospitals offering after-hours emergency care rather than daytime clinics only
Service lines land in their own column, which separates a referral hospital from a neighborhood practice before anyone writes copy.
Plays
Three motions you can run this week
Each one is a chain of Oxygen primitives — the same hosted objects your workspace already has, composed.
Independent-only clinic list
A list where every clinic can actually sign without a regional office.
- 1Sweep the state, then add ownership evidence columns and a single verdict column.
- 2Promote the independents, park the group-owned rows, and enroll only the promoted set.
oxygen search runGroup-level conversation instead
Corporate-owned clinics are consolidated into one conversation with the operator.
- 1Collapse group-owned clinics onto the parent company and keep the sites as linked rows.
- 2Resolve a regional or operations contact once, not once per clinic.
oxygen tables promoteFront desk that answers
Clinics with no named contact still have a route that reaches a decision maker.
- 1Grade every number and keep only the lines that validate as reachable.
- 2Call the practice manager during quieter clinic hours and log the outcome on the row.

Filters you can search on
- Independent or corporate group owned
- Number of veterinarians on staff
- Emergency, specialty, or general practice
- City, state, or radius
- Species treated
- Shared parent domain with a group
- Review count and rating band
Clinics themselves resolve almost everywhere: address, phone, hours, services, and reviews. Ownership is the fragile part, because acquisitions are often unannounced and the website changes months later, so expect a share of rows to come back ambiguous. Named contacts resolve well at independents, where the owning vet is public, and poorly at group-owned sites that route everything through a regional inbox.
Data sources
What the data actually comes from
Every value lands with its provider and cost recorded on the cell.
- Op
Open Web Ninja
Clinic listings with address, hours, phone, services, and review volume for a whole state.
Serper
Search and map coverage for clinics trading under a vet's own name rather than a hospital brand.
People Data Labs
Company records for veterinary groups and the regional managers who sit above the clinics.
Blitz API
Runs the work-email column, which resolves best at independents with their own domain.
ClearoutPhone
Validates the clinic number and reports line type before anything reaches a call list.
Run these on Oxygen's managed credits, or connect your own provider keys and pay the vendor directly — the same columns, the same runs, the same provenance either way. See every integration.
Limits
Where this stops
- Acquisitions are quiet. A clinic bought last quarter may keep its independent branding for a year, so an ownership verdict is evidence-based rather than certain and should be confirmed on the first call.
