About this listen
In this episode of the Veterinary Survival Show, Mark McGaunn and Jenni George break down how veterinary practices can stay financially resilient through slow seasons, unexpected emergencies, and major equipment purchases.
You will learn the most common financial vulnerabilities Mark sees in practice owners, why building cash reserves is non negotiable, and how real world disruptions like COVID, floods, fires, and equipment failures expose weak planning. Jenni shares practical lessons learned the hard way, including why insurance audits matter, how to avoid coverage gaps, and what policies and documentation every clinic should have in place.
They also tackle the big question every owner faces when the “new shiny toy” shows up, when it makes sense to lease vs buy, how to spot unclear or unfavorable lease terms, and why you should always review agreements before you sign. Finally, they discuss ways to smooth out cash flow year round, including wellness plans, transparent pricing conversations, and using slower periods to improve systems, training, and team retention.
If you want a more predictable, less stressful financial year in your practice, this episode gives you a clear starting point.
