About Dogwood
Pets are family, and when they need care, you want the best.
That belief drives everything we do.
Founded by Dr. Agda Tamassia and Dr. Andre Shih, Dogwood has grown from a small, dedicated team into Atlanta’s premier specialty and emergency hospital, now home to 19 doctors and Georgia’s best supporting staff.
