ALACHUA, FL – The Veterinary Hospital Managers Association (VHMA) announced that Shepherd Veterinary Software, an intuitive and robust cloud-based practice management software, has committed to the VHMA as a Silver Supporting Sponsor. Qualifying companies offering products and services that address the professional business needs of today's veterinary practices are invited to participate in VHMA's sponsorship programs.
"Shepherd was founded by practicing veterinarian Dr. Cindy Barnes," said Christine Shupe, CAE, VHMA executive director. "She understands our veterinary businesses and has created software designed to improve and streamline practice management. VHMA is pleased to welcome Shepherd as a Silver Supporting Sponsor."
"When I was an ER practice owner, my practice manager audited the books and found we were missing hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on missed charges," stated Dr. Barnes. "It just got to the point where there had to be something better, and that's the genesis of Shepherd."
"With more than two decades in the field, I know how important veterinary managers are to the health of a practice and the health of their patients. Sponsoring the Veterinary Hospital Managers Association and its members means backing an organization at the core of veterinary medicine."
