We are located in Soddy Daisy, TN, about 15 minutes outside of Chattanooga, but in an area that caters to those who might be looking for more space and fresh air.  We love our clients and work to offer them tailor made medicine to fit their needs whether that includes a restricted budget or possible referral to a local specialty center.

Soddy Daisy is a great place to live and work. It is conveniently located a very short drive outside of Chattanooga and the area provides plenty of fun and entertainment.....Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy hiking the scenic trails, exploring the terrain, kayaking the various sites around the Tennessee River, and fishing.  Hang gliding and ziplines are nearby for the thrill seekers.  Camping, horseback riding trails, fantastic shopping, dining, escape rooms, the Chattanooga Aquarium, the Chattanooga Zoo and other entertainment is also within and few minutes of the hospital.  Whether city life or nature is your passion, you'll find an abundance of both.   From work, you could be in/on the lake, in the mountains, or downtown Chattanooga ... whichever one you prefer ALL WITHIN 15 MINUTES of leaving work! 

We are excited about our growth and look forward to adding a new DVM or 2 to our team.  All applicants should look at themselves as team players and advocates for the best patient care while being cognizant of our clients’ wishes and financial abilities.
