post-title post-title
Tennessee Equine Hospital (TEH) staff are excited to welcome of the addition of a new veterinarian at the Eads, Tennessee location: Dr. Samantha Tate. She has joined the Memphis-area team full time and brings a lot of value to the practice. In May, 2018 she completed a one-year rotating internship in which she was involved in managing numerous cases, including: medicine, surgery, lameness evaluation, reproduction, field service, as well as complete hospital case management at both hospital locations in Arlington and in Thompson's Station, TN. She has also completed additional training in chiropractic evaluation and treatment for horses, and she can do chiropractic work on dogs, too, she says.

Originally from Delhi, Louisiana, Dr. Sam grew up riding on a small farm where her love for the horse was born. She has a varied riding experience under her belt, having ridden dressage, barrel racing, classical stock seat, and she has even done some trick riding.

She completed her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from LSU College of Veterinary Medicine before starting her internship position with Tennessee Equine Hospital. At TEH she has had a varied experience in veterinary care, from wellness maintenance (vaccinations, Coggins tests), to lameness issues, treating emergencies such as lacerations, colics and choke, to some reproductive work and newborn foal check-ups.

In her free time (veterinarians have free time?), she enjoys listening to live music, traveling, being outdoors, and spending time with her niece and nephews. We believe you will like her wonderful smile and her servant’s heart. Welcome to the Tennessee Equine Hospital team Dr. Sam!
