We are excited to announce that PetWell Partners has signed an agreement to join National Veterinary Associates (NVA).

Founded by David Murvin and David Strauss in Houston, Texas, more than eight years ago, PetWell Partners has grown to a community of 47 outstanding animal hospitals across the U.S. Similar to NVA, each hospital maintains its own name, culture, and approach to medicine.

In our conversations with PetWell Partners, we quickly realized that PetWell is a like-minded community that prioritizes their people, hospitals, and patients first, each and every day. They lead with strong, deeply held values – compassion, authenticity, and integrity – that closely mirror our own. They share our commitment to progressive and compassionate animal care. We are incredibly proud to welcome the talented PetWell staff and hospitals to our NVA family.

As David Murvin and David Strauss relayed, “we have long respected NVA’s rich history of preserving the culture and legacy of local veterinary hospitals while offering incredible back office support. By joining NVA, PetWell gains immediate access to NVA’s resources which would have taken us years to build on our own. Joining NVA ensures our veterinary teams have access to the best resources and can focus on what matters most: the health and well-being of animals.”

We are also excited to share that the PetWell founders, David Murvin and David Strauss, will be joining us at the close of the transaction. David and David are not only visionaries, but they also have a deep love for the profession of veterinary medicine and will bring much to our NVA community.

Together NVA and PetWell Partners will continue our mission to deliver high-quality veterinary care and service to pets and their families, united in the love of animals and the people who love them.
