Dr. Jennifer Coval has loved animals for as long as she can remember. That early passion has grown into a fulfilling career as a small animal veterinarian here at Countryside.
“I remember being a kid and thinking how special animals were,” she says. “Science was always my favorite subject, and from there, everything just kind of fell into place.”
Originally from Kingsport, Tennessee, Dr. Coval now lives in Monroe, Georgia, with her husband and two children. Her interest in veterinary medicine took root early in her academic journey. She earned her undergraduate degree in biology from Furman University in 1997 and went on to earn her DVM from the University of Tennessee – Knoxville in 2001.
Dr. Coval is especially passionate about guiding pet owners through challenging decisions regarding their animals’ health and quality of life. She strives to communicate clearly and compassionately, offering treatment plans that best serve both the pet and their family.
