Concierge Care
A different kind of veterinary experience
You deserve a veterinary practice that loves your pet as much as you do.
You want a veterinarian who genuinely knows them. Not just their chart, but their personality, their quirks, the way they tuck their nose into your neck when they're nervous. You want a practice where you never feel rushed, never feel dismissed, and never leave with more questions than answers.
In order to give your companion that kind of care, you need more than a good vet. You need a practice built from the ground up around the experience you and your pet deserve.
But I also know that finding that kind of care isn't always easy. Most practices are doing the best they can with the time and resources they have. That's not a criticism. It's just the reality of what veterinary care often looks like today.
That's why I built Kintsugi Animal Hospital. To bring something genuinely different to Franklin. A practice where clinical excellence and real human connection exist in the same room. Where your companion is treated as the individual they are. And where you always leave feeling like you were truly cared for, too.
I'm Dr. Joanna Walsh, and I know you want the absolute best for your pet.
Her upbeat personality has always been such a calming thing for my pets and me. I recently had to make that horrible decision for one of the cats. She was such a caring friend to me. After explaining the options, she seemed to feel as sad as I felt about losing Jake. She made me feel I made the right and most loving decision for Jake. I’ve always felt she cared for my “babies” almost as much as I do. I am so happy she now has her own independent veterinary office. There is no one I’d trust my pets with more than Dr. Walsh.

“Dr. Joanna Walsh has been my vet since the fall of 2021. She is the best vet with the animals that I’ve ever had.”
She is not only extremely knowledgeable, but also truly accessible and compassionate. Her deep passion for her profession and genuine love for each of my pets shines through during every visit. I've always appreciated her clear, concise communication when it comes to their medical care. Her personalized attention has meant everything to me, especially as my babies reach their senior years. I consider Dr. Walsh a blessing!

“Dr. Walsh has been providing veterinary care to my fur babies for over ten years, and I couldn’t be more grateful.”
She cares for them with an extraordinary level of compassion and genuine warmth. She truly loves my two current kitties and always goes above and beyond—taking her time to listen to my concerns, communicating clearly, and helping me feel confident in the decisions I make about their care. She also supported me through the loss of one of my cats in the most loving and gentle way, which meant more to me than I can express. Even when one of my cats is a bit spicy, she treats him with patience and kindness, and it’s always clear how much she truly loves and cares for both of them. Visits with Dr. Walsh are not only thorough and reassuring, but genuinely enjoyable. I always feel safe, listened to, and deeply cared for, and I am incredibly grateful to have her as our veterinarian.

Dr. Walsh is an exceptional veterinarian, and we feel so lucky to have her care for our English Cream Retriever. It’s immediately clear how much she truly loves the animals she works with, and she is genuinely excited to see our dog at each visit. Most importantly, it’s obvious how deeply she cares about our dog’s well-being. We feel confident, supported, and grateful knowing our dog is in such thoughtful, capable hands.

Dr. Walsh is truly one of a kind! Not only an incredible veterinarian, but an amazing human. From the first visit, it was clear how deeply she cares about my fur babies and treats them as if they were her own. Her knowledge, compassion, and attention to detail make it so easy to trust her and her team with their care. What really sets Dr. Walsh apart is how much time she takes to listen. She always makes sure we feel heard and never rushed, and she truly gets to know each of my pets individually. The level of care she provides is top-notch, and I leave every appointment feeling reassured and grateful. If you’re looking for a vet who will love and care for your pets like family, Dr. Walsh is the one.
