Does anyone have any experience of this company? Is their influence likely to be a positive one?

&lt;p&gt;Pros:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Better support on the management side equating to better support for the team&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;More opportunities for training, CPD development etc&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The&amp;#39;re are more but these are the ones that jump out at me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cons:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fast growth could cause you to be lost in the shuffle for your practice to be supported. Not really seen it currently, but it&amp;#39;s a possibility.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Honestly though, so far being a VP practice has been a good thing. If you want to ask anything specific, drop me a message.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Takeover by Vet Partners</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/170703?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sat, 09 Dec 2017 14:24:20 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:b7a6694a-845b-4f48-839c-cc5cc47dff4b</guid><dc:creator>Sarah Derbyshire - Kripp</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;My last practice was taken over by Vet Partners and they did there best to keep things normal, we had to change computer systems and wholesalers but they are very pro staff and pro client.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Takeover by Vet Partners</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/170697?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 08 Dec 2017 20:59:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:9049582a-ab55-46e7-8812-db40ba26e967</guid><dc:creator>Sal the 1st</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I think with any takeover there will be changes - I would say dont be too quick to jump ship some are better than others. Been through it a few times - there are some I wouldnt touch double gloved to the elbows and with a very large bargepole but no experience of this one&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
