Veterinarians often begin each clinic day beneath a weight: patient histories to fetch, workflows to chase, and software that seems designed for those of engineers. Many existing veterinary software products are heirlooms of complexity: overly technical designs, interfaces built around engineer-centric logic, and workflows that force vets to adapt to the system, rather than the system adapting to veterinary practice. Clinics spend weeks, sometimes up to seven, training staff just to navigate the tools. The result is stress, fatigue, lost time, and poorer care.
viggoVet entered this field with a different vision. Founded by veterinarian Michael Gerges, it was built not around what engineers think vet work should be, but how veterinarians actually work. From the first sketch to the newest release, the veterinary mindset is embedded in each part of the software. Rather than forcing vets into an engineering workflow, viggoVet fits into veterinary workflows: patient intake, diagnostics, treatment planning, and client communications, all designed as a seamless experience rather than patches over generic engineering logic.
Those who have used viggoVet report a sharp contrast. According to Gerges: “Our users reported a significant reduction in burnout and an interface so intuitive a vet can navigate it in minutes and master it in hours.” That stands in stark contrast to other solutions, where training may drag on for weeks. Clinics using viggoVet talk of being able to focus more on animals than on the software.
The Veterinary Software Market Is Swelling
Global demand for veterinary software is climbing fast. The market was estimated at about USD 1,435 million in 2024 and is forecast to more than double, reaching USD 3,015.6 million by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate of 13.2% from 2025 to 2030.
Regions such as North America hold the lion’s share now, but the spread of cloud-based tools, telehealth, and AI-enabled diagnostic modules is pushing adoption globally.
Live clinics are under pressure as patient load rises, staff burnout escalates, and administrative burden grows. Veterinary professionals often cite a lack of integrated software that matches what they do as a recurring obstacle. As markets swell, the noise of feature sets grows too, but many of those features risk being irrelevant or clumsy if the core workflow is broken.
viggoVet stakes its place by insisting that new tools must serve the living rhythms of clinic life. Gerges says, “While almost all players in the market are legacy complicated solutions or made by engineers, vets who are using it need to adapt to the engineering workflow design which causes more stress.” That’s the friction viggoVet sets out to erase.
How viggoVet Shapes the Vet-Centric Difference
viggoVet’s design philosophy starts with the job of the veterinarian and not with how coders prefer to build systems. Where many products force double data entry, awkward navigation between modules, or generic layouts, viggoVet builds each workflow module with professional veterinary input. Diagnostics, treatment workflows, record-keeping, client communications: each is mapped to what vets do every day.
Engineers on the viggoVet team bring heavy experience in healthcare systems. They’ve seen what works in human clinics and veterinary hospitals. They collaborate regularly with veterinary users. The result is that features that often feel like compromises, such as soap note writing, lab upload, image integration, and reminders, feel natural and integrated. What might take days of poking around in older tools often takes minutes.
Users emphasize that difference. The vet-centric design means less cognitive load. Clerical mistakes drop. It becomes easier to onboard new staff. What once required weeks of training in older systems is now mastered in hours. Michael reflects: “We built the veterinary solution as veterinary centric based on the vet professional mindset and workflow, and developed by engineers with intensive experience in healthcare systems.” That bond of professional insight and strong technical execution shows in the clinic’s daily flow.
Impact in Clinics: Stress, Burnout, and Mastery
Burnout among veterinary teams is high. Studies point to heavy emotional load, long shifts, and administrative overwhelm. Clinics that use software mismatched to their work exacerbate these pressures. Training becomes a burden. Misstructured workflows breed errors or inefficiencies. Every minute spent fighting software is a minute away from patient care or rest.
In contrast, viggoVet users report significant drops in frustration and mental load. Reduced burnout comes from intuitive navigation, consistent layouts, and fewer surprises in workflows. The system demands less adaptation. The time investment to become competent is low, just a few hours rather than weeks. Because clerical tasks are simpler, fewer mistakes happen. Staff reach a sense of control instead of scrambling.
Michael observes that, by lightening these burdens, viggoVet helps clinics return to what drew people to veterinary medicine in the first place: helping animals, engaging with clients, improving outcomes. When software recedes into the background, the vet comes forward. Clinics become smoother, the atmosphere less strained, care more centred, patient-focused.
viggoVet’s story is about fitting software to the rhythm of vet work. It is about cutting away friction, restoring some sanity to clinics, and helping veterinary professionals do what they do best. For users, that matters more than any feature list.
