Compassionate Veterinary Care for Your Beloved Pets
Arlington Animal Clinic was founded in January 2004 to address the veterinary needs of a growing rural community in Arlington, Tennessee. Since opening with limited services and two employees, weve grown through two major expansions to deliver comprehensive medical, surgical, and preventive care for cats and dogs. Our family-oriented approach prioritizes personalized attention, advanced technology like laser surgery, and community engagement through local initiatives and rescue partnerships. Dr. Monica Schoknecht, our owner and lead veterinarian, brings decades of experience and a commitment to treating every pet as her own. We expanded in 2006 to 2,500 square feet, adding dedicated spaces for diagnostics, surgery, grooming, and client education.Our focus on high-quality medicine, preventative care, and client education ensures pets receive lifelong wellness support. Accredited by the Better Business Bureau since 2008, weve maintained a small-town atmosphere while embracing modern advancements. Our team actively supports animal welfare programs like HARP and participates in community events to strengthen our ties to Arlington. We value transparency, client collaboration, and continuous improvement, reflected in our redesigned website and social media presence launched in 2015. By staying rooted in family values and veterinary excellence, we aim to serve as a trusted partner in pet healthcare for generations.
