Heartstrings is not corporate, not private equity backed, and not driven by investor mandates. Decisions are made by veterinarians and operators who actively practice and lead with integrity. Our focus is long-term sustainability for doctors, families, and patients.
We believe restrictive covenants harm veterinarians, families, and patient access to care. You will never be asked to sign a non-compete or agree to restrictions that limit where or how you practice medicine in the future.
You are the doctor. We do not impose quotas, rushed timelines, or production pressure that compromises care. Every appointment is family-guided, unhurried, and grounded in best-practice sedation and comfort protocols.
Most Heartstrings doctors see 2–4 thoughtfully scheduled appointments per day, allowing you to be fully present without burnout. You go home knowing you practiced medicine ethically and compassionately.
Heartstrings is an end-of-life specialty practice, not a side service or add-on. Our systems, training, and support are purpose-built for hospice and euthanasia care so you are never asked to “fit” this work into a general practice model.
You are never alone. Our Veterinary Care Specialist (VCS) team manages scheduling, family communication, logistics, and coordination allowing you to focus on medicine and presence. Clinical leadership and peer support are always accessible.
Our success is measured by quality of care, doctor well-being, and family trust not growth at any cost. We remain intentionally independent so we can protect the heart of this work.
Heartstrings was built by a family who believed there had to be a better way for veterinarians and for the families who trust us during life’s hardest moments. We exist to protect the sacred space of end-of-life care and the professionals who provide it.
If you are ready to practice with compassion, dignity, and respect—for your patients and yourself we would be honored to speak with you.
Life isn’t just better at Heartstrings.
It’s more meaningful—and it’s free.
