Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Lee Hamptons dream began many years before he added the letters DVM to his name. At age seven, Dr. Hampton informed his parents he was going to be the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys or a veterinarian. His family is thankful he had a backup plan. Prior to becoming a practice owner, Dr. Hampton worked at the same clinic for over 15 years. He started in the kennel in high school, then worked as a technician while home on break from college and vet school, and he was hired as a veterinarian after graduation from vet school. Dr. Hampton has developed a special interest in small animal soft tissue surgery, orthopedic surgery, rehabilitation, and oncology. He enjoys sharing his passion for the practice of veterinary medicine with his patients and clients. Dr. Hampton was raised in Fort Worth, Texas, and he continued the family tradition of attending Texas A&M University. He graduated with undergraduate degrees in Biomedical Science and Animal Science in 2007, and then obtained his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 2011. Dr. Hampton and his wife, Beth, have known each other since high school, when he made it his personal mission to help her have more fun in life. They continued dating through college and professional school, and they were married after Beth graduated from Baylor Law School. The Hamptons have one daughter, Mary Elizabeth, and a golden retriever from Scotland named George. Dr. Hampton still loves watching football, along with caring for his small herd of black Angus cattle, listening to George Strait, watching the History Channel, hunting and fishing.
