From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Family Pet Veterinary Centers is a general practice veterinary hospital with a goal of improving community health. The focus is to prevent disease, helping pets live longer healthier lives. Every pet that Family Pet Veterinary Centers (FPVCs) see has an owner. In turn, people that own pets live longer, have reduced incidence of many diseases and/or disease symptoms. FPVCs want to educate the public on current and new technology involving pet health. Additionally, FPVCs work to provide facts for many myths that are present involving pet health and disease.
