General Practice Veterinary Clinics
Community-based veterinary practices providing routine wellness exams, vaccinations, dental care, and sick visits for companion animals in standalone and multi-doctor clinic formats.
Market snapshot
These figures describe Companion Animal Practices (2.14.1), the segment that General Practice Veterinary Clinics sits within. They are not figures for General Practice Veterinary Clinics on its own.
Companion-animal general practice is the large majority of the section's ~$63B veterinary market, but the Census Bureau carries a single, undifferentiated veterinary code and does not split care by practice model. General practice is therefore not sized separately from the section total here.
