When someone calls about a sick pet, they shouldn't sit on hold listening to music that has nothing to do with why they called.
Hiscall designs, installs and supports phone systems, unified communications, CCTV, digital signage and cabling for Tennessee veterinary practices and pet care providers. One certified team installs it, and the same team answers when you call.

Every technician who enters your clinic is a badged Hiscall employee. We do not subcontract installation or support.
A veterinary practice runs on urgency and reassurance at the same time, a worried owner's call, a waiting room that needs to feel calm, a message from a supplier that can't sit unread. Most vendors sell you a phone system and leave the rest, the waiting room experience, the security, the way staff reach each other across exam rooms, to someone else. Hiscall designs the whole path, from the handset to the waiting room display, and supports all of it with the same certified technicians who installed it.
How it fits together
From a worried phone call to a calm waiting room
When it is designed as one path, an anxious pet owner gets a fast answer and a comfortable wait. When it is not, a missed call or a message stuck in a queue is how a practice loses a client's trust.
The call
A pet owner calls, sometimes about a routine appointment, sometimes about an emergency. Interactive voice response and unified communications route it to the right person fast.
The visit
Interactive displays, digital signage and customized on-hold messaging keep clients informed and at ease in the waiting room, while CCTV and access control keep the clinic secure.
The update
Speech-to-text and voice-to-email turn a message from a client or supplier into something a staff member sees right away, not something waiting in a voicemail queue.
The network
IP-based overhead paging, cabling and data networking tie every exam room, the front desk and the back office together reliably, whether it's a single clinic or several locations.
Why one team
What actually changes when one team owns the whole system
A practice that buys phones, cameras and displays from three vendors owns the gaps between them too. Here is what that costs in practice.
| Where it counts | Hiscall | Separate vendors per system |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | One team, one schedule | Coordinated by you, across contractors |
| Support calls | A Hiscall employee who knows your clinic | Whichever vendor you guess is responsible |
| System integration | Designed together from the start | Bolted together after the fact, if at all |
| Urgent calls & follow-up messages | One point of accountability | Finger-pointing between vendors |
| Everything else | Cabling, cameras, AV, IT, all included | Another vendor, another contract |
Built for veterinary & pet care providers, not adapted to them
Four capabilities that general low voltage contractors typically do not carry.
- Speech-to-text & voice-to-email. Turns a voicemail into text or email instantly, so an urgent message from a client or supplier is seen right away, not sitting in a queue.
- Interactive displays & digital signage. Keeps clients informed and engaged in the waiting room and exam areas, with content that fits your practice.
- Music & messaging-on-hold. Customized on-hold messaging that reflects your practice, not a generic default, so on-hold time still feels attended to.
- IP-based overhead paging. Reaches staff instantly across exam rooms, the back office and multiple locations, without anyone hunting someone down.
What we install
Every system across the practice, from one team
Most practices buy each system from a different vendor, then spend years getting them to talk to each other. We put them on one design and one support relationship.
Phone systems & unified communications
Cloud and premise-based VoIP with interactive voice response, speech-to-text, voice-to-email and customized messaging-on-hold.
TelecommunicationsCabling and infrastructure
Copper and fiber optic low voltage infrastructure installed by BICSI-certified technicians, sized for a single clinic or a multi-location practice.
Network cablingCameras & access control
CCTV security cameras and access control protecting the clinic, controlled substances, and after-hours boarding areas, under Tennessee CCTV license #1405.
Security solutionsData networking
Network infrastructure sized to a single clinic or an entire multi-location practice, backed by the same team that wired it.
IT services & data networkingDigital signage & interactive displays
Digital signage and interactive displays that keep clients informed and engaged while they wait, with content built for your practice.
Audio visualOverhead paging & AV systems
IP-based overhead paging and audio/visual systems that keep staff connected across exam rooms and the back office.
Audio visualProviders we work with every week
From a single-doctor clinic to a multi-location practice, with the same certified technicians on every job.
- Veterinary clinics & animal hospitals. Phones, waiting room displays and security scoped to a single clinic rather than sold as an enterprise package.
- Multi-location veterinary practices. Consistent systems and support across every location, with one point of contact instead of a different vendor per clinic.
- Pet care & boarding facilities. Access control, CCTV and overhead paging built around a facility with staff, animals and visitors moving through it all day.
- Pet product manufacturers & suppliers. Reliable phone systems and data networking for reaching staff and professionals across the industry.
How we work
Five steps, and you know who to call at each one
Survey
We come to you at no charge, look at what is already in place, and tell you honestly what should be replaced and what has life left in it.
Design
You get a documented scope and clear pricing. For a multi-location practice, we design one standard that repeats cleanly across every clinic.
Install
Our own badged technicians do the work, coordinated around appointment hours and animal care, not around us.
Train
On-site sessions for front desk, veterinary and administrative staff, repeated as often as your team needs it.
Support
You call us directly, not a queue, with 24/7/365 emergency response and unlimited moves, adds and changes.
Local technicians, statewide coverage
Two Tennessee offices mean a certified Hiscall employee on site rather than a subcontractor you have never met. Cloud-managed systems let us monitor, configure and resolve a great deal remotely, so a multi-location footprint costs you far less time than it used to.
- Dickson. Corporate headquarters and 25,000 square foot distribution facility, serving Middle Tennessee and the Nashville region. Reach the Dickson office directly at (615) 740-7771.
- Knoxville. Branch office at 4620 Old Broadway, serving East Tennessee since 2001, with the same certified technicians and the same emergency response. Reach the Knoxville office directly at (865) 862-4650.
- You reach a person. You work directly with a trained, certified, Hiscall-badged employee. Your needs are not outsourced to a call center overseas.
