The LuxVet Group has expanded by another facility. By virtue of the agreement signed, the Gdynia Veterinary Hospital of Dr Tomasz Brzeski, a veterinary surgeon, has joined it. In accordance with the Group’s operating philosophy, both the integration process and the further functioning of the clinic will take place in full cooperation with the existing owner and staff of GSWet. The Group will also invest in the development of the facility by launching, among other things, rehabilitation services and arranging reception space.

Gdynia Veterinary Hospital (ul. Kielecka 22, Gdynia) is a well-known facility throughout Pomerania, specialising in the diagnosis and implementation of complex orthopaedic procedures, cardiology, surgery, endoscopy, dermatology and biomedical therapies. GSWet has its own laboratory, modern diagnostic equipment (including a veterinary CT scanner), 2 operating theatres and a 24-hour supervised hospital. The team, led by veterinary surgeon Tomasz Brzeski, bases treatment on a holistic approach to patients, providing multidimensional outpatient and inpatient care.

LuxVet Group will invest in the creation of a rehabilitation clinic, which it will equip with, among other things, a water treadmill. As part of the Group’s in-house knowledge exchange programme, GSWet’s zoophysiotherapists will receive training at Warsaw’s Psychodni, which specialises in animal rehabilitation using this type of equipment.

Upcoming plans also include refreshing the interior of the facility, creating a new reception area and upgrading the IT infrastructure. GSWet will gain support in administration, accounting, purchasing, IT support and marketing, while employees will be covered by private medical care and a training system. LuxVet will not interfere with medical procedures.

The agreement between the entities was signed in May. Work is currently underway to integrate the clinic into the Group’s structures, with a particular focus on communication with the existing Vivovet team. Upcoming plans also include the creation of a modern reception area, hiring a person responsible for administration, and building a website. The pace of the implementation work is adapted to the dynamics of the facility.

Vivovet veterinary clinic is located at ul. Św. Rity 38 in Wrocław-Iwiny. It provides a wide range of services in the treatment, prevention and care of small animals. Modern diagnostic equipment, its own laboratory and, above all, a team of specialists have made Vivovet a nationally renowned centre for the diagnosis of difficult veterinary cases.

The first visible effect of joining the LuxVet Group will be improved customer service. A modern reception desk will be created in the registration space. The Vivovet team will expand by the addition of an administrative employee, who will relieve the doctors of routine tasks of dealing with customers, orders or the circulation of documents. LuxVet will also take care of marketing (eg by creating a website or supporting social media activities), completely take over accounting and administrative tasks, and provide comprehensive support in the area of IT, purchasing or current operational topics. However, employees will be a priority.

Like all outpatient clinics joining the Luxvet Group, Vivovet will retain its existing name and logo. The Group will also not interfere with the medical procedures used at the clinic.

Psychodnia officially joined the LuxVet Group in March this year. The integration of the facility has just entered its final phase. Its expansion is just beginning. All activities are taking place in close cooperation with the previous owner and current manager of Psychodnia, veterinarian Marta Labuda.

Located in Warsaw’s Bielany district, Psychodnia is a modern centre for the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of animals. From its inception, its founder has focused on pioneering solutions in veterinary medicine. Psychodnia was the first in Warsaw and the third in Poland to use a water treadmill for animal rehabilitation, and has recently been developing minimally invasive surgery, including laparoscopy, arthroscopy and thoracoscopy procedures.

Thanks to the ongoing expansion, the area of Psychodni will double in size. Additional surgeries will be created, making it possible to expand the medical offer and serve more patients in a comfortable environment.

In addition, the new part will create a larger and bright reception area, separate waiting areas for dogs and cats, office and social areas and a new shop space. The project was created in collaboration between Marta Labuda and LuxVet Group’s team of architects, and the investment process is being led by Luxvet Group’s Investment Department. The aim is to give a new quality by modernising the interiors and increasing their functionality while retaining the existing character of Psychodni.

The LuxVet Group has also invested in medical equipment, retrofitting the Psychodnia with, among other things, a high-energy laser, a minimally invasive surgery toolkit, a dental unit, a dental indirect radiography kit; and has also equipped a new, larger animal hospital.

The expansion is scheduled for completion in July. In parallel to the design and construction work, the LuxVet Group team is carrying out work in the area of modernising the IT infrastructure, refreshing the website (including the addition of an online appointment booking panel) and integrating the management and purchasing processes, which is expected to significantly ease the administrative burden on the clinic. This will allow the Psychodni team to focus on further development and helping patients.

In parallel, the LuxVet Group is finalising agreements for the consolidation of further veterinary facilities, as well as the to start building its own clinic and veterinary clinic.
