George E. Martin, Jr., DVM - Biography

Dr. Martin is a 1992 graduate of the Texas A & M College of Veterinary Medicine. He has been practicing in the North Dallas area since graduation. He provides veterinary medical and surgical services for dogs, cats, and exotic pets. Dr. Martin has lived in Frisco for over 25 years, just a few miles from the practice with his wife, two daughters, three dogs, and a chinchilla.

Dr. Martin is a member of local, state, and national veterinary associations. This allows him access to some of the most up-to-date information available for veterinary medicine and surgery. These associations also provide an ideal place for continuing education. His professional interests encompass all aspects of veterinary medicine, but he has special interests in gastroenterology and cardiology. On a more personal note, he enjoys Tex-Mex (and other Latin-based) cuisine, British humor, fantasy novels, dystopian novels and movies, getting together with his friends, writing poetry and short stories, many forms of music, playing cards and Rummikub with his bride, and spending time watching his adult daughters realize that being a kid wasn’t such a bad gig after all.
