How VetER Now works

  1. Hospitals post their status

    Front-desk staff update capacity and wait times with one tap from a texted link. An update stays live for 3 hours.

  2. You call ahead

    Every hospital has a Call ahead button, so you can confirm before you drive.

  3. Old data expires

    Every status shows its age. When nothing recent exists we say “No live status — call ahead” instead of guessing.
