Know which numbers matter—and what to do when they move.
A useful veterinary KPI dashboard is not a collection of every number your software can produce. It is a focused operating tool that helps an owner understand performance, spot problems earlier, and make better decisions.

Busy does not always mean healthy.
A practice can be booked, growing revenue, and still have financial or operational problems underneath the surface. The goal is to connect activity to outcomes.
Old Hickory Group helps owners determine which measures deserve regular attention, establish a review rhythm, and investigate the drivers behind meaningful changes.
Measure enough to understand the business—not so much that the dashboard becomes the work.
Financial
Revenue, profitability, cash flow, major expense categories, and the relationship between growth and what the owner actually keeps.
Productivity & Capacity
Measures that help explain how doctor time, support staff, appointments, and available capacity are being used.
Clients & Operations
Measures that can surface changes in demand, retention, scheduling, workflow, and execution.
A benchmark is a clue—not a diagnosis.
Published veterinary benchmarks can provide useful context, but practices differ by service mix, location, staffing model, ownership structure, hours, and strategy. A number above or below a benchmark should lead to a better question, not an automatic conclusion.
We start with your own trends, your goals, and the economics of your practice. Then we use external comparisons where they genuinely improve the decision.
Don't just collect the numbers. Understand the story they're telling.
We'll help you build financial visibility that leads to action.
