Tri-Cities clinic sharing
Johnson City practices also serve Kingsport and Bristol — stretching appointment availability across the region.
Johnson City sits in the Tri-Cities region where Appalachian trails, ETSU campus life, and mountain winters create distinct pet health challenges. TelaVets delivers licensed vet care by video to every Johnson City neighborhood without the drive to Kingsport or Bristol clinics.

ETSU students and mountain commuters compete for limited Washington County vet appointments.
From an ETSU student's apartment cat to a Buffalo Mountain trail dog with a tick bite, TelaVets provides same-day video consultations. $65 flat fee with prescriptions across the Tri-Cities.

Icy Appalachian roads make winter clinic drives dangerous for elderly owners and arthritic pets.
