Vetspire review

Vetspire builds everything from the patient's medical record. The invoice, discharge instructions and reminders come straight from the chart, two-way texts and emails are saved to it, and a patient's history follows them to any hospital in a group. The platform includes drag-and-drop scheduling, NOVA treatment sheets with a live whiteboard, automated reminders and triggers, a branded client mobile app and AI charge capture that flags missed charges before checkout. Vetspire AI writes SOAP notes during the visit, drafts discharge summaries and summarizes outside records. Specialty tablet apps cover dentistry (SMILE), ophthalmology (WINK) and equine care (HOOF), and the equine app works offline in the field. For groups, pricing, codes and templates can be set centrally and raw data is refreshed hourly. Vetspire says it was the first veterinary PIMS to open its API, with full data access at no extra cost. It does not publish prices, so cost comparison requires a demo.
