One of my practices recently joined this inspirational man at the start of his walk from Lands End to John O’Groats. He is doing this to raise awareness and money for The Canmore Trust for suicide prevention and postvention. He lost his son (who was a vet) to suicide.
They would love for members of the profession to join them on sections of their…[Read more]

Our Fuji CR X-ray processor is coming to the end of its life (20 years +!)
can anyone recommend a current CR system that is good quality and reliable ?
any recommendation gratefully received!
Hi Steve, I’ll email you now about a deal we have with a company.
thanks debi
anyone else have any info?
We have DR at the hospital now and I honestly could not recommend it more highly over CR. The time saving is enormous. the price of DR has really come down in the last few years. Time is scarce these days and I think DR is well worth the investment.
thanks martin can I ask what system you have and is it reliable and easy to use ? steve
can send you more details next week but it is from A. Somerville’s.
It has been totally reliable for the last 3 years. The only thing we have had issues with is running out of storage space on the PC they supplied because it is so easy to take multiple images.
it is also compatible with a piece of AI software we have just been trialling for them…[Read more]
sorry – “interprets”……predictive txt doesn’t seem to like that word.

It’s great to see so many new members joining this group. Please do post questions if you’re looking for guidance on any part of setting up your practice. If you’re already open, let us know how your new practice is going – any tips you think would help those just starting the process, I know would be gratefully received. Have a good weekend. Sarah
Hi we’re just starting out and are getting a lot of calls about pricing that tend to go nowhere. is this a thing you all get?
Morning Ian, great question. I’ll contact a few practices this morning to see if they are experiencing the same. We have a number of new mobile practices who have opened recently who I am sure will be happy to reply. I expect you’re already doing this, but when people are calling, are you asking when boosters etc. are due? Great to keep a note of…[Read more]
thanks Sarah !
Hi Ian,
We’re a mobile practice in Witney, Oxfordshire. We’ve had a few similar calls but nothing out of the ordinary – we would see this amount of calls for prices etc in a normal practice in the area. I think a lot of people want to know if we’re going to be cheaper or more expensive than their own vets.
We’ve been giving out prices only for…[Read more]

Would any of our members who use ezyVet for their PMS have any pointers on how to incorporate the Net Net Net Prices into their system. I’ve been asked this question by a potential Vetsure member who is looking to come on board with us in the Summer. Thanks, Steve.
