On March 30, 2010, McAllister Software Systems sold the 10,000th copy of AVImark veterinary software. Today we are welcoming Bear River Veterinary Clinic to the AVImark family.

Bear River began researching software programs when its current program became complicated and cost prohibitive. When staff members began to expand their usage of the software, they found that many advanced features such as electronic medical records, inventory tracking, and follow-up reminders required the purchase of additional packages. And these features were incredibly cumbersome to use.

So, Bear River staff contacted more than 50 veterinary clinics to find out which programs were being used by other clinics. Most were using AVImark and spoke very highly of the veterinary software. When Bear River downloaded the free demonstration of AVImark, staff members were very pleased with the combination of robust features and ease-of-use.

According to Dr. Eric Dent, one of three veterinarians at Bear River, features that were very complicated in Bear River's old software were easy in AVImark. They only had to purchase one copy of the software, which was loaded on all seven of their terminals, including two laptops that travel with the doctors into the field when they treat horses and cattle. Best of all – they didn't have to purchase additional packages to get the features they wanted.

"We are most excited about using AVImark's inventory feature – we'll implement that immediately," said Dr. Dent. "We're also excited about the ability to store a series of fees for each treatment, which will allow us to create estimates and invoices much more quickly and will eliminate missed charges. In the future, we'll likely start using the integration with laboratory equipment and will eventually convert to paperless medical records."
