History
Allen Veterinary Hospital opened its doors in January, 1986. Dr. Mike Overton, veterinarian and owner, built the hospital in order to meet the small animal needs of Allen, Texas. Since then, it has grown to include two veterinarians and a staff of 15. We treat all sorts of companion animals—from birds and iguanas to pot-bellied pigs and turtles. Three clinic cats roam the premises making sure that everyone feels at home, kept company by six birds and an aquarium full of fish.
Allen Veterinary Hospital has been awarded The People’s Choice Award for Best Veterinary Practice in Collin County for five years and has been first runner-up twice. Dr. Overton recently won the Readers Choice Award for Best Veterinarian in Collin County, and it is the fifth time he has won this award, which is sponsored by DFW Community Newspapers. In January, 2003, Dr. Overton was awarded the 2002 Community Partners Award by the Allen Chamber of Commerce. This was presented in recognition of his contributions of time, talent, and financial resources in assisting the non-profit organizations of Allen.
