How Private Equity is Transforming Vet Care and What Trump 2.0 Might Mean for PE with Michael Fenne

Pets! If you don't have one you probably know one.

In this episode of my podcast, I sit down with Michael Fenne from the Private Equity Stakeholder Project to unpack the growing trend of private equity in veterinary practices—how it affects costs, quality of care, and the future of independent vets. 

PLUS Michael breaks down what the upcoming Trump administration could mean for private equity regulations.
