💙🐾 INDEPENDENTLY OWNED. LOCALLY ROOTED. COMMITTED TO OUR COMMUNITY. 🐾💙
Did you know Hambright Animal Hospital is independently owned and operated? We're local, and proud of it!
Our owner, Dr. John Houghton, grew up on a small dairy farm in Maine, where neighbors looked out for one another and community meant everything. He brought those same values to Hambright with a simple vision: A hospital where pets are treated like family, clients feel valued, and employees love where they work.
As a Huntersville resident raising his own family here, Dr. Houghton is passionate about giving back. From local schools and youth sports teams to neighborhood swim teams, charities, and other community organizations, we believe that investing in our community makes it a better place for all of us.
When you choose Hambright Animal Hospital, you're supporting a locally owned small business that genuinely cares about the people and pets who call this community home.
Thank you for supporting local and being part of our Hambright family! 💙🐾
