Riverside Veterinary Clinic
Our goal at Riverside Veterinary Clinic is to provide the best possible care, client education, and prolong comfort and longevity in our beloved pets. By creating a healthy business, we can provide an improved quality of life for our patients, an enjoyable and fulfilling employment for our staff, and continue to support our loyal clientele.

Common services for dogs and cats include - exam, vaccination, titers, spay, neuter, X-ray, blood work, dental procedures, cold laser therapy and more. There are separate waiting areas for dogs and cats to ease some of the stress for both the patient and client. We also have a feline only exam room, equipped with Feliway pheramone plug-ins.
Services
Dr. Leah Wulforst was born and raised in Oyster Bay, NY. A small historic town on the water, but also a short train ride from New York City. She was able to help at the family farm stand, go to beach on the weekends, snowboard upstate, or go visit the Museum of Natural History. After starting a family, they wanted to slow down, but still wanted diversity.
Wellness exams are recommended every 6 months as our pets age, or more frequently for chronic disease. For some conditions, early detection may help improve outcome, or prolong a more comfortable quality of life. For other conditions, routine monitoring, such as blood work, is important to help gauge progression of disease and whether other treatment options may be appropriate.

Cannot say enough about Dr. Ensor and the staff at Riverside. We came just for routine vaccines as a new patient and left with so much more. They are all about your pets and their well-being. Respectful, thorough and caring. You get all the information needed before making any decisions. Highly recommended.

Oakley loves his new vet office. Dr. Ensor and her assistant were so good and helped Oakley to relax his whole visit. He gives it 4 paws 🐾 up! We definitely will continue coming here.

I could not ask for a better, more dedicated vet to take our furry loved ones to! Dr. Norman has gone above and beyond to make sure I am always informed on exactly what is happening and why during the visit, she takes her time to answer all questions thoroughly, and she has even checked up on our new puppy over weekends when he was sick. This team is beyond kind and professional; I could not recommend Riverside more.

I’m in town for a few months and brought my dogs in for routine vaccinations and checkups. The vet went over the history and consulted with the precious specialists for my dogs issues. They clearly care and are so accessible.
I’m glad we tried them out and can’t recommend them enough.

I would give this Vet clinic 6 stars if I could. The entire staff is so caring and thoughtful. Dr Norman has gone above and beyond to help take care of our dog going through kidney failure. We are so thankful we found this clinic to take care of our dogs.

Best Vets in Knoxville! Dr. Wulforst has been so patient and gentle with my high anxiety dog. Her check ups are thorough and she has never steered me wrong in my dogs' care. So glad I made the switch to Riverside Vet when they opened. Best decision ever!

I’ve been coming here for years, Dr.Norman and Dr.Leah and their team are so amazing words cant describe. The compassion and understanding they have for my babies is unreal and I don’t know what I would do without them. No question ever goes unanswered and no one ever leaves without some treats and pets. Thank you to the riverside team a million times my babies and I really love y’all so much.

My Meeka only visited Riverside a few times but she was a really good patient for them. we unfortunately had to have her put down last week and they were all very supportive and compassionate to us. Dr. Norman… went step by step and gave us time with Meeka. They even sent us a card with Meeka's paw prints on it. Very sweet. They loved her like we did and I would recommend them to anyone who loves their pet. 🐕🐾❤
