Veterinary clinics: share recheck and exam windows as plain text
Pet owners usually text to move a suture recheck or ask about a same-week sick slot. A public booking page often cannot show surgery mornings, tech-only visits, or continuity with a specific doctor.
Generate plain-text windows from the clinician calendar your front desk already uses, name the pet and visit type in the reply, and confirm once the owner picks. Medical records and boarding stay in your PIMS.
Example text for a suture recheck

Practical tips
- 1
Never offer surgery-block mornings as wellness slots
Keep procedure blocks busy so owners do not pick times the floor cannot staff for routine exams.
- 2
Name the pet and visit type in the same message
Recheck, vaccine, and euthanasia consults need clear labeling so owners choose an appropriate window.
- 3
Honor doctor continuity when the owner asks
Pull free time from that DVM's calendar only instead of the whole hospital grid.
Frequently asked questions
Does this replace our PIMS scheduling?
No. It only helps staff propose times over text or email. The appointment is written in your practice software after the owner replies.
Can owners grab any open hospital slot online?
Not through this tool. They reply with a preference; staff check tech availability and confirm.
Will Google see patient charts?
ShareAvailability only needs read-only calendar free/busy. Keep medical details in the clinic systems you already use.
