Welcome to

The Mountain Hospital for Animals

A Veterinary Hospital for Companion & Exotic Animals

On a quiet ridge of Lookout Mountain, Tennessee, we care for everything from dogs and cats to reptiles, birds, and the wildlife of the Appalachian South — with the unhurried attention every animal deserves.

Your Local Clinic, With a Wide-Open Practice.

The Mountain Hospital for Animals has cared for the families and creatures of Lookout Mountain since 1989.

Our practice spans everything from the routine wellness visit to the unusual call — a parrot, a tortoise, a bearded dragon, and yes, on rare occasions, the wildlife of the Appalachian South.

We believe a small practice can be a serious one.

At The Mountain Hospital for Animals, animals always come first.

The whole spectrum of animal medicine, under one roof.

From the predictable rhythm of annual wellness visits to the hard-to-find expertise that exotic species require, we keep an honest, full-service practice on the mountain.

Veterinary Services

We provide comprehensive wellness exams, vaccinations, and advanced medical care to keep your pets healthy.

Exotic Animal Services

Emergency Care

Trust our 24/7 veterinary emergency services for immediate, life-saving urgent care when your pet needs it most.

Whether your patient has feathers, scales, or fins. We are there for them!

Bearded dragons, ball pythons, scarlet macaws, sulcata tortoises, sugar gliders, hedgehogs, rabbits — for nearly every exotic companion you can name, we provide medicine that actually fits the species. It’s an unusual specialty in our corner of Tennessee, and it’s one of our deepest commitments.
