We are not your traditional veterinary hospital. We partner with your veterinarian to provide flexible case management solutions. We will only perform the diagnostics and treatments that your vet requires, leaving the ultimate case control in their hands.
Advanced Veterinary Care Group is an innovative new concept designed to redefine how high-quality veterinary healthcare is delivered. The Care Group is like your “partner across the hall,” a team of highly experienced and competent general practitioners with special interests in several key areas of medicine.
At Advanced Veterinary Care Group (AVCG), we operate a unique, referral-only model with a primary focus on surgical care and outpatient diagnostics Serving communities across Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and even Canada, we are the go-to partner for primary care veterinarians who want affordable, expert surgical solutions without the cost of a board-certified specialist.
Our practice is staffed by experienced veterinarians who thrive on hands-on surgical cases and a collaborative, knowledge-sharing culture. We believe in empowering doctors to lead, not micromanage. You’ll be part of a tight-knit team committed to clinical excellence and personal growth—all while serving a true community need for high-quality surgical services.
Surgical-Only Caseload Focus solely on what you love—surgery. No wellness visits, no dentals, no GP constraints. Expect 2–3 surgical procedures per day, including TPLOs, lateral cruciate, FHOs, splenectomies, and stenotic nares.
State-of-the-Art Equipment Full TPLO setup, in-operative digital radiographs, surgical laser, and ultrasound services performed in-house with radiologist interpretation.
Unique Practice Model We're not a specialty hospital, but we operate with high surgical standards at a more accessible cost—filling a critical gap in our region’s veterinary care ecosystem.
Great Schedule Enjoy a four-day work week with no weekend shifts and no on-call.
Supportive Team & Culture After addressing past team issues, we’ve rebuilt with a focus on open communication, no drama, and mutual respect. Our team includes experienced LVTs (one in the process of re-certification), a veterinary assistant, and a committed receptionist.
If you’re a veterinarian with strong surgical skills and a passion for orthopedic and soft tissue procedures, Advanced Veterinary Care Group offers a rare opportunity to focus your career on the cases that matter most to you.

Heartland Veterinary Partners is a support organization that is committed to improving the lives of veterinarians. We purchase veterinary practices and provide operational support to relieve administrative burdens such as payroll, recruiting, HR, marketing and accounts payables. If needed, we invest to support growth. The practices maintain their unique branding, culture and clinical autonomy.
At Heartland, we believe that selling a veterinary practice shouldn’t mean losing what makes it remarkable. When we acquire a practice, the doctor comes first. We listen closely to their needs in order to create a one-of-a-kind solution to ease their administrative burdens—all without disrupting their day-to-day operations, the culture they’ve fostered, and the relationships they’ve built. In other words, the name over the door doesn’t go away. The headaches of running a business do.
Partnering veterinarians appreciate an improved work-life balance, less financial worry, and the confidence that their teams will be in good hands. Best of all, they get to focus on why they entered the business in the first place: to care for animals and to be present when their clients need them most. Practice team members enjoy the warm culture of their individual community practices combined with the support and resources that Heartland brings to the table.
Improving the lives of veterinarians means supporting them at all stages of their careers. Whether you're a veterinary student or a new graduate looking for hands-on learning to begin your career or an experienced veterinarian looking to tackle management and leadership opportunities, we keep your goals at the heart of everything we do.
The Heartland Support Center team is hardwired to serve. We follow the philosophy of servant leadership and put the needs of others first with a genuine desire to help. As a result, Heartland’s practices count on team members to be there for them with heart and solution, not a corporate agenda.
