Sept 25-Oct 1, 2022

Our hearts go out to those affected by Hurricane Ian as it made landfall and caused mass destruction last week. U.S. veterinary practices felt the impact as year-over-year revenue growth slowed to 1.7% and growth in visits slowed to -5.7%. Revenue from professional services was at 3.3% year-over-year, while months of heartworm and flea/tick protection dispensed were down again this past week. Product revenue was down this past week at -2.4% growth. You can see more details below and check out the Veterinary Industry Tracker for daily stats.

The rolling 14-day trendline for revenue and visits growth year-over-year was noticeably higher in 2021 before declining in January 2022. This spiked significantly in February and slightly in July but appears to be settling in overall at a lower rate than what we saw in 2021. We saw it climb in September and now it appears to be on the decline.
