Anderson County Animal Hospital

New Cruciate surgical option at Anderson County Animal Hospital as of 12 March 2009!!!!

Dr. Will has completed training in the Tibial Tuberocity Advancement (TTA) technique of Ruptured Cranial Cruciate Ligament repair. This exciting new procedure is comparable in most dogs to the TPLO which has been the Gold Standard of repair. Unless there are angular limb deformities or extremes in the tibial plateau angulation, TTA is being found to have a lower complication rate and quicker recovery times than the TPLO. We definitely recommend you explore all surgical options for your pet following an injury or illness. While we will still gladly refer you for TPLO surgery we are excited to provide a newer, less expensive, and truely comperable technique for your pet. For more information on the TTA procedure, please read this informational document on the TTA by the surgeon who trains veterinarians all over the world, and from whom Dr. Will received his training. Here's an information page from the website of a group of board certified surgeons trained as Dr. Will was, in the TTA procedure.

These are not Canadian or overseas imports. These are FDA approved medicines. NO COUNTERFEITS! We have seen dogs with Frontline applied, overwhelmed with fleas. The manufacturer will not honor guarantees if purchased from many online pharmacies, partly because of the prevalence of counterfeit drugs, which has become a big business.

We know you love your pets and we hope you love your vets, but we understand that your time is valuable and gas is expensive. Have your stuff shipped to your home and get on with your lives!
Don't forget to come visit our Satellite Clinic in Norris!!!!! Now in our New 2009 Building! We have recently moved into our new, more spacious, and renovated building at 2822 Andersonville Hwy 61 Norris, TN, directly across the street from the Museum of Appalachia! We opened in January 2008 as Anderson County Animal Hospital Norris in the building next door. We will provide the same excellent service while being much closer to the East Anderson County/Norris/Andersonville region. Our initial expansion included the addition of in-house laboratory, updated surgical, anesthetic, and monitoring on-site, and access to the fantastic surgical and laser capabilities of our main hospital. Our new facility will provide two waiting areas, to segregate animals who may not sit well together, two exam rooms, an expanded treatment area, and boarding!!! We will continue to care for your preventive needs through vaccinations, flea and parasite control, and nutrition. Please welcome us as we make this next level of expansion into the Norris/Andersonville community!!!! That's right... We'll be boarding in Norris!!! Check with us as we expand our kennels and hours to better serve the East Anderson County area!!!!


		We are proud members of the Anderson County Chamber of Commerce! Both clinics support our Chamber and we are excited to have this opportunity to partner with so many other fine Anderson County businesses in this fashion.
We are members of the Veterinary Surgical Laser Society with "Dr. Will" having achieved status as a "Fellow"
The Anderson County Animal Hospital is basically remaking the wheel. It was a great clinic as the Animal Hospital of Anderson County, and we hope only to build and improve on that foundation. The clinic has been purchased by a family of two veterinarians, Drs. Will and Tara Roberts. "Dr. Will" has worked at the clinic along side Dr. Melissa Wilson for ~5 years, and both he and Dr. Wilson will continue to be the primary veterinary staff with the addition of Dr. Tara. Everyone should expect the same caring and compassionate team of animal lovers who want most of all to keep your pets healthy, and to restore them to health quickly and inexpensively in the event of illness or injury. Please look around to meet the staff, learn more about our practice philosophy, visit some of our favorite links on the internet, even see some gross pictures to give you a feel of some of our daily challenges. Be patient, this is a work in progress, and check back often for updates and new items.
