Exotic Veterinary Care in Mount Carmel, TN
Expert Care for Exotic Pets
Reptiles
Reptiles require highly specialized care, as their physiology, husbandry, and disease risks are unlike those of dogs or cats. Our reptile care services are designed to meet the specific needs of cold-blooded pets—including environmental evaluations, nutrition guidance, and advanced diagnostics.
We care for many common reptiles, including:
Reptiles are experts at hiding illness, making regular exams essential. We provide services such as physical exams, fecal testing for parasites, skin and shell care, and treatment for common conditions like metabolic bone disease and respiratory infections. Our team can also offer advice on lighting, humidity, and temperature control to support your pet’s overall well-being.
Small Mammals
From tiny squeaks to gentle hops, small mammals are increasingly popular pets—and they deserve the same high-quality veterinary care as any cat or dog. At Mount Carmel Pet Hospital, our small mammal care services focus on prevention, early detection, and education to help you care for your pocket pet at every life stage.
We treat a wide range of small mammals, including:
Our services include wellness exams, nutritional counseling, dental care (especially for rabbits and guinea pigs), parasite control, and illness management. Small mammals have fast metabolisms and can decline rapidly when sick, so prompt attention and routine care are vital.
Avians
Birds are highly intelligent and sensitive creatures that benefit from regular veterinary care tailored to their species. Our team is trained in the anatomy and behavior of companion birds and provides gentle, low-stress care in a quiet exam environment.
We welcome a variety of birds, including:
Whether your bird needs a wellness exam, wing or nail trim, beak assessment, or treatment for respiratory illness or feather-picking behavior, we’re here to help. We also offer guidance on diet, enrichment, and habitat setup to support physical and mental health.
