September 2022 Monthly Recap

We have officially entered fall and U.S. pet owners continue to face inflation as cooler weather rolls in. Let’s look at veterinary industry stats for the month of September to see how this impacted U.S. veterinary practices. Compared to August, September’s year-over-year revenue stayed pretty consistent, and we still saw a slight decline in months of heartworm and flea/tick protection dispensed. These metrics are based on transactional data from around 4,600 veterinary practices across the United States. See more details below and check out the Veterinary Industry Tracker.
