Hometown Veterinary Partners is proud to announce the addition of Dr. Cheryl Brocki as our new Chief Veterinary Officer (CVO). With an extensive background in veterinary operations, mentorship, and clinical excellence, Dr. Cheryl Brocki joins our executive leadership team at an exciting time in our growth. She will play a key role in shaping the future of our veterinary hospitals while upholding our unwavering commitment to supporting veterinary teams and providing compassionate patient care.
As CVO, Dr. Cheryl Brocki will oversee the operational aspects of our veterinary hospitals, ensuring smooth and efficient daily functions while fostering a culture of collaboration and growth. Her responsibilities include promoting medical excellence, enhancing our onboarding program for new DVM graduates, and supporting DVM recruiting efforts. Additionally, she will support new veterinary hospital partner locations and focus on developing Partner DVMs to strengthen their leadership, care standards, and business acumen.
Dr. Cheryl Brocki brings a wealth of experience to Hometown Veterinary Partners. She has successfully mentored numerous early-career veterinarians, certified veterinary technicians (CVTs), and veterinary assistants (VAs).

She also played a key role in building a veterinary university program, expanding it to 16 universities with 22 student ambassadors. Furthermore, Dr. Cheryl Brocki developed and implemented a comprehensive onboarding program for new graduate veterinarians, ensuring they received the support and guidance needed for a successful career. Her work in furthering veterinary medicine has extended to forging strong partnerships in the vetmed community, and she has also earned a certificate of completion from the BlendVet DEIB program in March 2023.
Hometown Veterinary Partners Founder and President Keri Kamba expressed her excitement about Dr. Cheryl Brocki joining the team, “We are thrilled for Dr. Brocki to join our leadership team in our rapidly growing organization. Dr. Brocki embodies encouragement and empowerment for our veterinary professionals in each of our locations, and we are excited for her to continue our compassionate care programs for pets and our communities.”
