Company Overview
At Springtown Veterinary Hospital in San Marcos, TX, you are joining a legacy of comprehensive veterinary care established in 1991. We treat every pet like our own, and the community recognizes this commitment, giving us an excellent 4.8-star Google rating. Crucially, Springtown is the only hospital between San Antonio and Austin accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). This accreditation means we hold ourselves to the highest global benchmarks for quality care in nearly every aspect of the hospital. If you are ready to do your best work and contribute to a nationally recognized standard of excellence, this is your opportunity.

When you join us, you become a key part of a dedicated and established team, working alongside doctors like Kristen Martin, Christa Lambert, and Trevor Smith. Our hospital’s commitment to AAHA accreditation mandates stringent standards for cleanliness, patient care, and client service, ensuring you have the structured environment needed to succeed. You will practice in a facility that undergoes regular evaluations covering surgical protocols, exam facilities, and emergency services. This commitment to structure provides a supportive framework where genuinely caring and wholesome teammates focus on delivering gold-standard medicine every day.

We offer comprehensive small animal services spanning wellness and prevention through advanced care. Your medical toolkit here includes robust testing and diagnostics capabilities, complex surgical procedures, and urgent care support. Because our AAHA standards require excellence in fields often overlooked, you will practice in a facility that adheres to stringent benchmarks for diagnostic imaging, patient pain management, and anesthesiology protocols. We seek professionals dedicated to maintaining this benchmark of quality, ensuring that our patients receive meticulous and personalized attention in every scenario.

San Marcos, TX, offers an ideal setting, positioning you perfectly between the vibrant culture of Austin and the historic charm of San Antonio. This location is easily accessible and serves a rapidly expanding client base, ensuring both professional opportunity and a manageable quality of life. You will be practicing within a community that has placed its trust in the high level of care you provide for decades. If you are looking for a place to grow a long-term career while enjoying the unique Texas landscape, Springtown Veterinary Hospital in San Marcos awaits.
