Aug 21-27, 2022
As U.S. pet owners battled rising prices and inflation, veterinary practices saw modest year-over-year revenue growth while year-over-year growth in visits continued to struggle. Year-over-year growth was at 4.9% for revenue and -3.1% for visits. Revenue from professional services again accounted for much of that growth in revenue, at nearly 7% year-over-year. Months of heartworm and flea/tick protection dispensed were down again this past week and down compared to the week prior. Product revenue was flat, slightly higher than what we saw the week prior. You can see more details below and check out the Veterinary Industry Tracker for daily stats.
