VETS Warsaw Veterinary Clinic joins the LuxVet Group

The LuxVet Group is strengthening its position in Warsaw. Following a recently signed agreement, the Group welcomed in its ranks one of the oldest and most recognizable veterinary facilities in Warsaw, the VETS Veterinary Clinic.

The clinic is located at ul. Książęca 3 in Warsaw’s Śródmieście district. It was founded in 1991 by doctor Waldemar Wośko. In 2006, the facility was expanded to provide more comfort, safety and top quality of services for its patients. It now offers 24-hour veterinary care, as well as the possibility of booking a home visit. It is one of only a few facilities in Warsaw that owns an ambulance.

The VETS team consists of 27 veterinary doctors offering internal medicine, surgery, orthopaedics, neurology, cardiology, nephrology, endoscopy, ophthalmology, anaesthesiology and diagnostic imaging (ultrasound) services, along with 11 assistants and technicians. The facility has a surgery ward comprised of an operating room with a hospital for post-surgery patients, a doctor’s office where surgical and orthopaedic consultations are provided, and an X-ray room. There are also 3 internal medicine offices, an office for specialists (ultrasound diagnostics, ophthalmology, oncology, nephrology), and a reception desk at customers’ disposal.

-Joining the LuxVet Group opens many new opportunities for us. By working together, we will have a real impact on the development of veterinary medicine in Poland. I am really happy that both myself and my team will be able to share knowledge with other specialists and together raise the standards of care for our patients. - said doctor Waldemar Wośko, the Clinic’s founder.

-We are proud to have the VETS Veterinary Clinic join the LuxVet Group. Many of us have been familiar with this facility for years, as one of the most recognizable 24-hour animal care clinics in Warsaw. We want to keep the existing character and reputation of this unique place on the Warsaw’s map of veterinary care facilities. - said Piotr Zajączkowski, CEO of the LuxVet Group.

Through integration with the LuxVet Group, the facility will receive support in the area of administration and accounting, operations, procurement, HR and recruitment, IT support and marketing. The team will have access to the Group’s training and knowledge exchange and will receive private medical care.
