I walked in with a toddler and puppy on a Sat. Morning and the front desk lady (should of remembered her name) was AMAZING!!! She immediately grabbed crayons, coloring book and said let's get you back in a room. She knew and she got me! It was so appreciated. The entire staff was so caring and so helpful, not once did I feel uncomfortable or rushed! I will recommend to anyone who needs a vet!

My three dogs love Enrichment at Whitesburg Animal Hospital! The very sweet staff interacts with them all through the day and encourages lots of play time and fun. It's great to see them playing with their friends in all the photos they post on Facebook. My dogs always come home happy and tired!

WE LOVE WHITESBURG ANIMAL HOSPITAL! We have been coming to Whitesburg for the care of several of our animals for years now and have always been impressed with the superb quality of thorough care our animals have received. The Whitesburg family has always treated us and our animals with kindness, respect, patience, and compassion. And I cannot stress enough how happy I am with their Fear Free practice! I always know that the well-being of my animals—not just their physical health, but their comfort and emotional well-being too—is a priority here. I am overwhelmingly grateful to be able to work with a vet who is invested in providing the best care without compromising on my animal’s emotional well-being. Dr. Armstrong is the best vet we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She is kind, helpful, and in caring for our animals she always keeps us well informed and involved so we know just what’s going on and what our options are. So of course when we needed a veterinarian that would be compassionate and understanding to treat our very anxious dog, we came to her! Dr. Armstrong and her staff have been incredibly accommodating for our anxious dog, and very patient with her (and us!) as we worked with her to get her comfortable enough for handling and treatment at the vet. With the help of medication and almost weekly “happy visits” for over a year, (and training at home, too,) our dog Juniper has gotten SO much more comfortable with going to the vet. Dr. Armstrong has been wonderful in allowing us to come in regularly to work on training with Juniper (with her sister Maple along for moral support,) and let us work up to using cooperative care techniques that ensure our dog is comfortable with what is happening instead of stressed and afraid. I am happy to report that yesterday, we were able to do Juniper’s entire exam and vaccines using only cooperative care routines, and absolutely zero restraint or force! I can’t even begin to express how incredibly grateful I am to have been able to work with Dr. Armstrong to build this foundation with Juniper so that she can continue to receive the best care possible for the rest of her life! Thank you, Dr. Armstrong and Whitesburg!!!

Fabulous first time experience with my dogs. Especially love that it is a fear-free clinic! Dr Jenner was very sweet and gentle with my nervous dogs. The women at the front desk were so helpful and kind. And Tamika the Vet Assistant was so calm and cool and patient!! We have found our new Animal Clinic! Highly recommend! Very clean and organized. Knowledgeable and very competent staff.
