What is the balance at your clinic for vet to vet tech? At any given time we usually only have 2 vt techs and 3 drs I think we need more vet techs.

When I was in GP I had a 3:1 ratio. 1 licensed tech, 1-2 VAs, or 1 TA. Seemed to do really well. The tech would direct the VA and TA in what needed to be done. Or they would run labs, fill meds, work on discharges while the tech would help with procedures and vaccines. Bare minimum 2:1 seemed to do fine.

We have 1 tech to every doctor on the hat shift and 1 va per tech plus 1

I work on an ER, and currently it’s one tech to one doctor with one assistant maybe 2.
