Dr. Primm wanted to be a veterinarian since the age of five. She grew up in Chattanooga, graduating from Girls Preparatory School and accepting an academic scholarship from Mississippi State University. She graduated from their College of Veterinary Medicine in 1996.

She enjoys companion animal practice and is happy to have returned home to open Applebrook Animal Hospital in 1998.  She attains or exceeds the suggested 20 hours of continuing education each year to keep abreast of the changing face of veterinary medicine.  Dr. Primm continually seeks to improve her skills through additional conferences, reading, and specialist consultations to provide the best care to her patients.

Our support staff is uniquely dedicated and compassionate.  Our staff is  friendly and knowledgable to best address your needs.  If you are a client with us, you probably already know the staff.
