Dr. Price - A WELL-ROUNDED EDUCATION, WITH ONLY ONE GOAL IN MIND
I'm a native Texan. I knew I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was 3 years old. I was a National Merit Scholar at Memorial High School (Houston), and earned 3 degrees from Texas A & M University.
B.S.--Biomedical Sciences, Texas A & M, 1979 (Magna Cum Laude)
B.S.--Veterinary Sciences, Texas A & M, 1982 (Cum Laude)
Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, Texas A & M, 1984
A PASSION FOR EXCELLENCE IN PET CARE & CLIENT INVOLVEMENT
My patients deserve, and get, the same quality of care and attention expected of a top flight physician. A crucial part of this caliber pet care is informing the clients of the options available. I use a combination of tried and true techniques with the latest in diagnostic equipment. I attend classes, workshops and seminars that not only enhance my technical skills, but my evaluative skills as well.
SPECIAL INTEREST AND IMPRESSIVE WORK EXPERIENCE
Being the senior practitioner in a large practice, first in Houston, then in Dallas, has allowed me to treat all kinds of patients with all kinds of problems. As an active showdog breeder/exhibitor since 1978, I've always had a particular interest in allergies, skin and coat-care, and reproduction. Through extensive reading, continuing education, research and constant use, these particular interest areas have evolved into a major part of my practice. I see new dermatology patients for a second opinion on a daily basis. I work with a wide variety of top breeders, helping them solve their dogs' reproductive issues.
A REAL PET LOVER
I raise and show AKC Champion Norwegian Elkhounds, AKC Champion German Shorthaired Pointers, have two of the cutest Maltese dogs you've ever seen, a wonderfully wild outdoor cat, three horses, and a pond full of pet Japanese Koi. Feeding time is really something!
ACTIVE IN HER PROFESSION
As with all my associates, I stay in touch with the profession through regular meetings and activities. Peers are an invaluable source of new information.

Dr. Barnhart - GONE TO TEXAS, ON A WELL-DEFINED PATH
"Although native to Pennsylvania, I have wanted to be a veterinarian since I was 8 years old, when my horse went through a colic surgery. I got here to Texas just as soon as I could! I went to a private university in Ohio for my undergraduate work, and Texas A & M for my master's and doctorate."
B.S. Biology, University of Findlay, 2005

A JOYFUL APPROACH TO PET CARE &
CLIENT EDUCATION
"I believe that my clients are the best asset I have in helping our patients stay healthy. The more I can teach my clients what they need to know to prevent and recognize health concerns in their pets, the better I like it! A crucial part of this approach is taking the time, with each and every client, to make sure they have the information they need to be as well-informed as possible. The result is our patients stay healthier, and problems are caught early rather than late!"
INVOLVEMENT IN THE COMMUNITY
"I want to be active with the 4-H and local community as much as possible. I plan on doing presentations at career days at the local schools. I like to work with kids--they are the future, and absorb information like sponges!"
A FARM FULL OF CRITTERS!
"I have 3 Quarter Horses, 7 dogs, 8 bearded dragons, a sulcatta tortoise, 3 leopard geckos, a Quaker Parrot, 5 snakes, a ferret and various barn kitties. Variety is the spice of life!"
ACTIVE IN HER PROFESSION
" I stay up-to-date through regular meetings and activities. Continuing education is critical to make sure I am familiar with the latest developments in veterinary medicine."
