You're not the only one who's had enough.
Veterinary Technicians face unique challenges: Independent practice rules vary state to state — some allow it, some don't. Supervising-vet billing relationships and revenue share agreements. Drug log compliance and DEA records for controlled substances. On-call after-hours rates vs scheduled in-home visits. Mileage tracking across 6-8 in-home clients per day. On top of all that, Acuity Scheduling charges $33/month ($396/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median veterinary technician earns $32,000/year. Software at $396/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
