'Life and Death' for Pets: Elizabeth Warren Targets Firm Buying Veterinary Offices

3. How can I find out if a veterinary practice is owned by a private equity firm?

Is it always obvious, or if not, how can I get that information, other than by asking directly?

I have been pretty happy with our vet on the whole, but it seems like the cost of a visit has gone up, and any kind of lab work has gotten shockingly expensive. The hours have been cut back, too, and it's been taking longer to get appointments. After reading this post, I'm suspicious!
