Our Story and Commitment
Here’s the short story: I’m Eric Garcia, founder of Tapir, which you might remember as Simply Done Tech Solutions. What began as a small effort to make marketing and technology easier for veterinary practices has grown into something much bigger than I ever imagined. Over the years, we’ve worked with incredible teams, built lasting partnerships, and created tools that help practices connect with clients and improve the care they provide.
Our transition to Tapir represents not just a new name, but a reflection of how far we’ve come and where we’re headed. If you’re curious to learn more about our journey and what we’re all about, keep reading.

Where It All Began
My journey in the animal health world started just after high school when I worked at a veterinary practice while pursuing higher education. Those early days gave me more than just a paycheck—they gave me a firsthand understanding of the day-to-day challenges in veterinary practices and sparked a lifelong passion for the profession.
In 2009, I took a leap and founded Simply Done Tech Solutions. My goal? To simplify technology and marketing for veterinary practices while bringing integrity back to the table. Too many practices were being sold empty promises: clunky onboarding processes, generic solutions, and cookie-cutter services that didn’t honor the unique needs of the veterinary world. I knew we could do better.

Why Tapir?

Tapirs are unique, adaptable creatures, often called “living fossils” for their resilience and ability to thrive over millions of years. Like the animal we’re named after, we’re all about adaptability, growth, and staying rooted in what truly matters.
