Patterson Companies, Inc. is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and sole authorized distributor capable of providing the proprietary licensing, annual upgrades, and specialized clinical technical support (including 24/7/365 telephone support, live chat via approved B2B connections, and email support).
