My GOD I hate corporate vet clinics.

My dad was a vet. I'm older (52), but in the era and honestly well into my adulthood, vet clinics were generally sole proprietorships or sometimes professional partnerships. The name on the door was the ownership, not beancounters in an office tower somewhere.

So, took, are the vets I trust our pets with. But I have absolutely noticed this trend of corporate ownership and consolidation, and that has never resulted in better anything for customers or patients.
