A clinic built differently | The Shire Vet

Running a veterinary practice is rewarding, but it’s also stressful, and not every lender understands the realities.

Dr Mark Baldwin and Dr Michelle Sutherland set out to build something different with The Shire Vet: a clinic that felt warm and welcoming for clients, pets, and staff alike.

"It’s very difficult to explain a lot of things to lenders, because they just don’t understand."

With the guidance of Credabl’s finance specialist, Jason Organ, and access to Credabl’s deep industry knowledge and supplier connections, their vision quickly took shape. In just two years, they’ve transformed an empty space into a thriving clinic, and found financing that was fluid, supportive, and truly professional along the way.
