Veterinary diagnostics same-store clinical visit growth measures changes in clinician-pet visits at a comparable sample of veterinary practices.
IDEXX reported that U.S. same-store clinical visits declined approximately 2% in 2025.
Clinic traffic is a demand backdrop, not the whole diagnostics story
Fewer visits can pressure opportunities to run tests, but diagnostic utilization and revenue per visit can still increase.
That is why CAG recurring revenue growth can remain strong even when clinic traffic is soft.
The sample is not the entire veterinary market
IDEXX says its U.S. visit data comes from a subset of CAG customers and can be affected by short-term factors.
Use the measure alongside diagnostics revenue per practice growth, not as a stand-alone measure of industry health.
