The Painted Tree Veterinary Hospital Mission
Painted Tree was founded by Dr. Tony Lopez and Dr. John Pazora, two veterinarians who have spent their careers serving pets and families across the DFW area. Both have owned and operated their own veterinary hospitals, and both have worked in corporate veterinary settings. They’ve seen firsthand what works, what doesn’t, and what pets and their people truly deserve. That deep knowledge and lived experience form the cornerstone of everything we do.
Drs. Lopez and Pazora built Painted Tree to bring their vision together under one roof: a family-owned, independent practice where clinical excellence and genuine kindness go hand in hand, and where every decision is made by the doctors who are actually in the room caring for your pets. Here, medicine is never one-size-fits-all. We listen to your concerns, explain your options openly, and build a care plan around your pet’s individual needs and your family’s goals.
We’re committed to creating a calm, low-stress environment for every patient who walks through our doors. From gentle handling and reduced restraint to a team that’s deeply invested in your pet’s comfort, everything about our hospital is designed with your pet’s well-being in mind.
Whether it’s your pet’s first puppy visit or a complex medical concern, our team is here to provide thoughtful, high-quality care in an environment where both pets and people feel welcome. Our practice is personal for us, and you’ll feel the difference from the moment you walk through the doors.
