The medical team includes multiple European Board-certified specialists (ECVS, ECVN, ECVDI, ECAR, ECVD, ECVAA) and a DESV ophthalmology diplomate, with a 12-month EBVS/AVMA-aligned internship program (via ProgressVet) providing a specialist pipeline.

The business model is fee-for-service professional services with publicly disclosed prices. Revenue streams include specialist consultations (€53.30–€139.40), imaging services (MRI €748–864; CT €488–571), surgical procedures (€96.80–€864.10 range across spay/neuter, orthopaedic, neurosurgical, and cardiothoracic interventions), vaccinations, chemotherapy, reproduction services (via AniRepro on-site partners), and 24/7 emergency care carrying a 10% surcharge out of hours.
