Samantha Crist, DVM, MS, DACVR-RO

Dr. Crist grew up in Illinois and earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. She went on to complete a small-animal rotating internship at Virginia Tech, followed by a residency in Radiation Oncology at the University of Missouri (Mizzou). During her time at Mizzou, she also earned a master’s degree while researching canine gliomas and how genomic changes may influence future treatment outcomes.

Outside of the hospital, Dr. Crist enjoys sewing and designing her own clothing, leather carving, and roller skating. She is excited to settle into the Chattanooga area and hopes to adopt some pets of her own!
