"When I adopted my kitties in 2022 I asked a family friend, a longtime resident of Chattanooga who started Southern Comfort Maltese Rescue, which vet she recommended and, without hesitation, she said Shallowford Animal Hospital. I live in North Chattanooga and my friend lived in Hixson, so this was not a convenient choice for either of us, but I could not be happier with Shallowford. They are a very warm and caring group, from the front desk to the top vets. They have an excellent payment plan, with 3-4 different levels, and they do not try to talk you into the most expensive option. In fact, of the three cats I adopted, one is quite elderly and I was ready to invest in the most expensive level of their care packages, but they felt that wasn't necessary and she is on the same level as the other two. And the payment plans are just an option if you are interested; not a requirement of any sort. I've had dentals done, emergency appointments when they work me in, regular scheduled appointments; I have interacted with the different doctors who specialize in different areas of veterinary medicine ... It's a great Veteranary hospital."
