our veterinarians. By this time, the doctors went on calls in pickup trucks with special boxes on the back to hold hot water and vet supplies. A main office was built on the south edge of Knoxville on Hwy 24. Small animal exam and surgery rooms were built, and an extensive cattle-processing facility was built in and outside the office. A satellite office was opened in Pleasantville. In 1991, Doctors Mark Poell and Robert Conway left the practice. Dr. Craig Burk, the junior partner, became the sole owner and operated the practice with two associate doctors. Dr. Burk sold the large animal portion of the practice in 1994 to an associate and turned the Knoxville Veterinary Clinic into a strictly small animal practice. Dr. Maggie (Aleff) Wilson joined the practice in May 2009 when she graduated from the Iowa State College of Veterinary Medicine. In March of 2018, Dr. Wilson and her husband Jeff had the opportunity to move back to Knoxville and purchased the Knoxville Veterinary Clinic from her former mentor, Dr. Craig Burk. They were overjoyed at the opportunity to return to Knoxville with their two children, Collin, and Courtney. In June of 2019, Dr. Stephanie Deneke joined the practice adding 15 years of experience to the team. Both Dr. Deneke and Dr. Wilson strive every day to give their best to our clients and patients. Thank you for trusting us with your beloved pet!

As a cat owner, you know the importance of a litter box, but do you know when your cat's bathroom habits might indicate a health problem? If your cat suddenly starts using the litter box more frequently or seems to struggle or howl while going, it could signal a urinary issue. It's best to address any concerns early, so if you notice changes, don't wait! Call us at 641-842-3316 to schedule your cat's checkup.

During tonight's broadcast of Knoxville High School Girls Soccer, our Knoxville Veterinary Clinic Pet of the Game featured Theo, sent in by Jess Ramaeker! Theo is what Jess and her family call a "Humane Society Special." They're not sure of his breed, and he was adopted from the Marion County Humane Society. According to Jess, he's an overall menace who loves to chase squirrels, dig holes, and destroy everything, but he's also the best dog they've ever had 🥰 Thank you for sharing Theo with us, Jess!

Be sure to submit your pet for our Pet of the Game feature by messaging our page with a photo and fun fact about them!
