Clinic Membership Terms
Last updated: September 6, 2026
These terms apply to U.S. veterinary clinics that hold a VetBridge USA membership or engage VetBridge USA for a placement. They are in addition to our general Terms & Conditions.
1. Membership and billing
Clinic memberships (including the Talent Pipeline Membership) are billed on a recurring basis and may be cancelled at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period. Membership is not required after a veterinarian is placed. The replacement guarantee in Section 3 continues on the terms of your placement agreement whether or not your membership remains active.
All fees, and the way membership fees are credited, are set out in your membership or placement agreement.
2. Interview guarantee
If VetBridge USA does not deliver at least one qualified candidate interview within 60 days of your membership start date, we will refund the membership fees you have paid.
A qualified candidate interview means a live video call between your clinic and a candidate who holds an active veterinary license in Mexico or Canada; matches the species or practice focus stated in your posted role; meets or exceeds the English level stated in that role; is preliminarily TN-eligible based on our screening, which is not an immigration determination; has confirmed in writing that they wish to be considered for the role; and appears on a video call at a time both parties agreed to.
This guarantee requires that you have posted at least one role and have responded to interview scheduling requests within five business days.
3. Three-year replacement guarantee
If a veterinarian we place leaves your clinic within 36 months of their start date, we will source a replacement at no additional engagement or placement fee, and we will bear the immigration, licensing, and examination costs of the replacement candidate. Replacement means sourcing and placing a new candidate through our normal process, and the timelines that apply to any placement apply to a replacement.
The conditions of this guarantee, including which departures qualify and how fees are treated on departure and replacement, are set out in your placement agreement.
4. What these guarantees do not cover
Visa, licensing, and examination outcomes are determined by government agencies, state veterinary boards, consulates, and the ICVA, not by VetBridge USA. We manage that process and absorb its cost, but we do not guarantee that any candidate will pass an examination, obtain a license, or be granted a visa, or the timing of any government or board decision.
5. Precedence
Where your membership or placement agreement addresses a matter covered by these terms, that agreement controls.
