Overview

As a respected veterinary hospital, everything we do, from the careful design of our hospital, to the selection of our staff, is done to ensure the comfort and well-being of our patients and their owners. It is our goal to educate and involve clients in developing an individualized preventive health care plan that is best for their special companions. Andes-Straley Veterinary Hospital is proud to offer the very best in veterinary medicine

Our practice was established in 1947 as Young-Andes Veterinary Hospital by Dr. Tyler Young and Dr. Gerald Andes on Fort Henry Drive. Dr. James (Andy) Straley grew up in Kingsport and after graduating from Iowa State University Veterinary College and a short stint in Newport, Tennessee, he returned 'home' to join the practice in 1969. After Dr. Young's retirement in 1971, the practice was renamed Andes-Straley Veterinary Hospital. Then in 1973, the practice relocated to its present site on Memorial Boulevard. After graduating from UT's College of Veterinary Medicine and practicing for a few years in Knoxville, Dr. Gary Andes joined the practice in 1981, and, upon his dad's retirement, assumed partnership role in the practice. The expanded physical plant was put into operation in early 2009
