In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Siva Nalabotu and Jeff Lafave of VetCheck Pet Urgent Care which is a unique veterinary care model that started in Fishers, IN and is now starting a franchise offering nationwide. Dr. Nalabotu is a veterinarian, has his master's in biological sciences with a focus on nanotechnology, and has a Ph.D. in toxicology. Siva started the Fishers location in 2018 and as the model grew realized the offering should be available in other regions and wanted to support practice ownership with a proven model. Jeff is helping lead the franchise business from operations and day-to-day management. We dive into the details about the franchise model.

• The current business and flagship location in Fishers IN an overview.
