People
Caring for the future of veterinary medicine starts with caring for those who care for animals. We are dedicated to continually enhancing our culture of caring, where a “How are you?” is asked with genuine compassion and answered earnestly and openly. We recognize that building an organization of thriving people means prioritizing wellness and mental health—candidly, creatively and without judgment. VCA has made significant investments to expand benefits and well-being resources, including launching Lyra Health to provide company-paid mental health support to all U.S. Associates.
Social Responsibility
Recent years have tested our collective limits while also shining a light on the connections that bring us together. VCA Animal Hospitals has long committed to caring for pets, its Associates and the communities our hospital teams serve. Our family of 30,000+ VCA Associates has always reached for what's next, caring for the future of veterinary medicine by empowering thriving people, supporting a healthy planet and ensuring pet well-being.
