ER Documentation Built by an ER Veterinarian
VetGeni was built by Dr. Christopher Tiller, a practicing emergency veterinarian who understands that ER documentation needs to be fast, accurate, and never slow down patient care. Every workflow in VetGeni — from triage capture to discharge — was designed around the reality of a busy emergency floor: multiple critical cases, exhausted teams, and owners who need clear answers at 2 AM.
No account required to try. No credit card required to start the 14-day trial.
Real ER Case Documentation
Canine hit-by-car — triage through discharge generated from voice dictation
Example Output
Generated in 18 secondsSubjective
Owner reports 4yo MN Pit Bull mix was struck by vehicle approximately 30 minutes ago. Patient ambulatory on scene but now non-weight-bearing on right hind limb. No witnessed loss of consciousness. No known prior medical history. UTD on vaccines per owner. No current medications.
Objective
T: 100.8°F, HR: 160, RR: 44, BP: 95/60 (MAP 72), SpO2: 96%, BW: 29.5kg, BCS: 5/9, Pain: 3/4 CSU. MM pale pink, CRT 2.5 sec, moderate abdominal splinting on palpation. R hindlimb: crepitus and instability at mid-femur, soft tissue swelling, no open wound. Lung auscultation: mild increased bronchovesicular sounds bilaterally. Neuro: ambulatory x3, absent proprioception RH. FAST scan: trace free fluid caudal abdomen.
Assessment
1. Vehicular trauma — hemodynamically compensating. 2. Suspected R femoral fracture — radiographs pending. 3. Trace peritoneal effusion — monitor for progression, r/o hemoabdomen, urinary tract rupture. 4. Mild pulmonary contusions — monitor respiratory effort. 5. Pain — CSU 3/4, multimodal analgesia initiated.
Plan
IV access established — LRS bolus 20ml/kg over 20 min, then 5ml/kg/hr maintenance. Analgesia: Methadone 0.3mg/kg IV, Ketamine CRI 10mcg/kg/min. R femur radiographs ordered STAT. CBC/Chem/Coag panel submitted. PCV/TS q2hr x6hr. Repeat FAST in 2 hours. Thoracic radiographs if respiratory effort worsens. NPO. Urinary catheter placed — monitor output. Owner counseled on suspected fracture repair, hospitalization estimate $3,500–5,500, prognosis guarded pending imaging and serial monitoring. Surgical consultation in AM if stable.
How It Works
Three steps to better documentation
Capture While You Stabilize
Hit record on your phone and talk through findings as you work. VetGeni captures everything — vitals, interventions, owner communication — without you stopping to type.
AI Structures the Record
VetGeni's AI understands ER workflow. It separates triage from stabilization, organizes findings by system, calculates pain scores, and flags critical values — because it was built by a vet who does this every shift.
Review, Edit, Discharge
A complete SOAP note, treatment plan, and client-ready discharge summary appear in seconds. Review, adjust, export to your PMS or print — all before the next emergency hits.
Designed Around How ER Actually Works
Triage-speed voice capture
Record findings during triage, stabilization, and owner updates. VetGeni sorts it into structured sections automatically — no typing during a code.
Toxicology triage built in
Instant access to toxic doses, expected symptoms, decontamination protocols, and antidote dosing for the most common ER ingestion cases. Powered by Wiley-licensed references.
Discharge instructions owners understand
Generate plain-language discharge summaries with medication schedules, warning signs, and recheck timelines. Multi-language support for non-English-speaking clients.
Treatment plans with real dosing
Build multi-drug treatment protocols with weight-based dosing from a 739+ drug database. CRI calculations, tapering schedules, and monitoring parameters included.
Pain scoring that matters
Automatic CSU pain scale derivation (0-4) from your clinical observations. Species-specific scoring for dogs and cats, with provenance tracking.
Works at 2 AM on your phone
Full functionality on mobile. Document on your phone between cases, in the treatment area, or walking to radiology. Cloud-based — nothing to install on the clinic's computers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Was VetGeni really built by an ER vet?
Yes. VetGeni was created by Dr. Christopher Tiller, a practicing emergency veterinarian. The platform's workflows, terminology, and clinical logic reflect real ER experience — not generic software adapted for veterinary use.
Can I document while actively managing a critical patient?
Yes. VetGeni's voice capture lets you talk through findings and interventions as you work. You don't need to stop and type. Many ER vets dictate during or immediately after stabilization, and VetGeni structures the full record automatically.
Does VetGeni handle toxicology emergencies?
Yes. VetGeni includes built-in toxicology guidance with toxic dose calculations, expected clinical signs, decontamination protocols, and antidote dosing — all powered by Wiley-licensed veterinary references. There's also a free toxin checker tool.
How fast does VetGeni generate ER documentation?
A complete SOAP note, treatment plan, and discharge summary are typically generated in 10-20 seconds after you finish recording. Review and editing usually takes 60-90 seconds for a standard ER case.
Does it work with our practice management system?
VetGeni integrates with IDEXX Cornerstone and supports export to multiple formats (PDF, text, copy-paste) for compatibility with any PMS. You can also print discharge instructions directly.
Is $50/month realistic for an ER practice?
Yes. VetGeni starts at $50/month per clinician. For an ER vet seeing 15-25 cases per shift, the time savings (1.5-2.5 hours per shift) typically pays for the subscription in the first day of use.
