CORVALLIS, OR – In a veterinary industry where high costs can delay or prevent essential procedures, RAD Pets has emerged with a purpose-driven, operationally distinct model that is reshaping how pet surgeries are delivered. Located in Oregon and founded by CoFounder and CEO Jonny Mills, the clinic is built around a simple but impactful premise: specialized, affordable, and streamlined surgical care for pets.
RAD Pets departs from the traditional veterinary clinic format by eliminating all non-surgical services. There are no general appointments, wellness exams, or vaccinations—just surgery and dentistry. This targeted focus allows the clinic to minimize overhead and pass those savings directly to pet owners. The result is a pricing structure that opens access to procedures that might otherwise be delayed or avoided due to cost.
The clinic’s portfolio includes over 20 surgical options, including spay and neuter operations, dental cleanings and extractions, and select emergency procedures. RAD Pets’ service delivery is centered on precision, safety, and speed. With a staff trained in High-Quality High-Volume Spay/Neuter (HQHVSN) techniques, procedures are performed with smaller incisions, shorter anesthesia durations, and full intraoperative monitoring. IV catheters are utilized for more complex cases, ensuring that safety remains paramount.
“At RAD Pets, we are eliminating waste and focusing on what truly matters—getting pets the care they need efficiently and safely,” said Jonny Mills. “We believe that high-quality surgery should not be reserved for those who can afford to pay a premium. By narrowing our scope, we make care more available to everyone.”
One of the most important consequences of RAD Pets’ model is the reduction in what veterinary professionals refer to as “economic euthanasia,” where owners are forced to forgo or postpone critical procedures due to financial limitations. By providing a credible, safe, and lower-cost alternative, RAD Pets supports better health outcomes and reduces preventable suffering across pet populations.
The streamlined system also benefits pet owners with simpler scheduling, fixed pricing, and fewer logistical hurdles. Transparency is built into every step of the client experience, from booking a procedure to understanding post-operative care. This ease of use makes veterinary care more approachable for both first-time and experienced pet owners, particularly those managing multiple animals or operating within tight budgets.
RAD Pets functions more like a specialized outpatient surgical center than a general veterinary office. Its emphasis on volume over margin is uncommon in the veterinary field but reflective of a broader trend toward operational efficiency in human healthcare. The clinic’s ability to adopt and adapt similar principles has positioned it as a case study in veterinary innovation.
“We’re not competing with general vets—we’re offering an alternative that complements them,” Mills said. “Our goal is to catch the cases that might otherwise fall through the cracks due to cost or access issues. We’re part of the solution, not a replacement.”
While the majority of RAD Pets’ clientele comes for planned procedures, the clinic also offers limited emergency surgical care based on capacity. This helps fill a crucial gap for urgent situations where time-sensitive surgeries might otherwise be financially out of reach.
By focusing exclusively on surgery and avoiding traditional service bundles, RAD Pets continues to expand its reach and appeal. It has quickly gained traction as a preferred provider for pet owners who value both quality and clarity in their pet’s healthcare journey.
