Wesley Williams, DVM
Dr. Wesley Williams grew up on a farm in a rural town in East Texas and learned fairly quickly that he wanted to work with animals and one day become a veterinarian. He attended Texas A&M University and graduated with a Bachelor’s of Animal Science in 2004 and Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in 2010. After graduating from Veterinary School, he moved to Dallas and worked in a general practice/urgent care hospital for 13 years. He enjoys the variety of cases that come through the door every day and has a special interest in preventative medicine, client education, urgent care, pain management, and dermatology.
In his free time, Dr. Williams enjoys spending time with his wife and 3 children. Most evenings he can be found shuttling his kids around to music lessons and sports practices. When not working or shuttling kids around, he likes to spend time back in East Texas on his family’s farm where there is no shortage of fishing ponds, cow work, and beautiful sunsets.
His current pets include 2 Jersey cows and a baby calf, all named by his kids – Milkshake, Dandelion and Tiny.
