Our Mission

Southside Vet Clinic’s mission to provide top-notch veterinary care to Chattanooga’s Southside and surrounding communities. We focus on a client education-centered approach to ensure that we are working as a team to best care for your furry family members. Our job is to provide information so that you are able to make the decisions that are best for you and your pet. Our number one priority is patient care, followed closely by client satisfaction.

An independent veterinary clinic, founded by Chattanoogans for Chattanoogans.

We started as Main Street Pet Wellness Center in late 2016. We earned the support of the community through caring and compassionate care. Despite our name and location changing, we are dedicated to living up to the individual needs of our clients. Our new, improved facility should help us better serve all our clients, both new and old.

SVC remains a locally owned veterinary clinic, which has become less and less common in Chattanooga. This becomes more and more important as the corporate take over of the veterinary industry continues. You and your fur ball are more than just numbers in a spreadsheet to us. There is a lot more to this business than just profits and returns.

SVC offers the highest quality of services

to meet the individual needs of your pet.
