An emergency with your animal is a critical and stressful event. We therefore have an emergency doctor and experienced technical support staff available at all times for you and your pet. We provide care for your important family member when your regular veterinarian is not available. We however work to get you back in the care of your veterinarian as soon as possible. Our emergency doctors are available at night, on weekends and on major holidays to see walk-in emergencies and provide care for our daytime hospitalized patients.
Client Reviews + Testimonials
Our staff at Nashville Veterinary Specialists values feedback from our clients. Here is just a small sample of the hundreds of comments from owners of happy and healthy pets we have cared for since 2010
We used these vets for our 9-year-old lab with a liver mass. The mass was successfully removed and we had almost four more active, good years before Daisy had any issues. At almost 13, the mass reoccurred and once again these vets diagnosed quickly and accurately. They were helpful and honest, and I highly recommend them.

Everything about my visit from scheduling to interacting with staff was truly exceptional. Dr. Sessions was professional and knowledgeable regarding my aging Labrador's health issues. He was honest with my options and gave me excellent advice. No one wants their pet to have to go to a specialist but I can whole-heartedly recommend this facility should the need arise.

I have used their services a few times and have been treated kindly during each experience, which is extremely important when you’re having an emergency with your beloved pet. I appreciate the hard work y’all have done, especially with my kitties. Keep up the good fight, it’s very much appreciated.
