KNOXVILLE - PriorityPet Urgent Care has opened its newest urgent care facility in Knoxville. Located at 7240 Kingston Pike, Suite 132, this state-of-the-art facility provides immediate care for sick and injured pets, including dogs, cats, and exotic pets like birds, reptiles, and small mammals.

Led by local veterinarian and board-certified specialist in zoological medicine Dr. Emi Knafo, PriorityPet Urgent Care treats non-life-threatening conditions on a walk-in basis, providing a critical resource to local pet owners when their primary veterinarian is unavailable.

“Our goal is to get sick pets feeling better, faster,” said owner and veterinarian Dr. Knafo. “Busy pet parents want a convenient option that’s open late, doesn’t require an appointment, and won’t keep you waiting long. We’re here to do just that.”

Equipped with advanced on-site diagnostics, including digital X-rays and an in-house laboratory, the clinic can rapidly treat common urgent issues such as minor wounds, sudden vomiting or diarrhea, ear infections, and lameness.
