From the very beginning, this hospital was designed with heart, purpose, and a deep love for veterinary medicine—and we’re proud to share our story on a national stage.
To our incredible clients, future clients, friends, and community—thank you. Your trust, encouragement, and support have made all the long nights, big risks, and bold dreams worth it. We couldn’t have done this without you, and we’re so grateful you’re part of the Windsong family.

**Tell Us Your Story**
Windsong Veterinary Hospital wasn’t born out of necessity—it was born out of vision. After more than 11 years in general practice, I had seen both ends of the veterinary industry: the intimacy and flexibility of private practice, and the systems and efficiency of corporate medicine. But I also saw where both fell short. I knew I could do it better—and I wasn’t going to wait for a bigger building or a better time. I decided to build the hospital I always dreamed of working in, from the ground up.
Unlike most veterinarians who outgrow their leased space and expand out of necessity, we did something different. My then-husband had a background in commercial real estate, and together we took an enormous leap of faith. We recognized the potential of Prosper, Texas—an area poised for explosive growth—and partnered with the Tellus Group, the developers of Windsong Ranch, to secure a prime 0.89-acre lot. From there, we assembled a powerhouse team: Live Oak Bank helped us secure an SBA loan that financed real estate, construction, equipment, inventory, and working capital. We partnered with Building Design for Animals (BDA) for architecture and Construction Management Professionals (CMP) to execute our vision. We refinanced our home, borrowed from retirement accounts, and took on the biggest financial risk of our lives. And we did it during a time of nationwide construction and supply chain delays.
The project was nearly a year behind schedule before we even opened our doors—materials were backordered, equipment was delayed, and loan payments began before revenue ever came in. We were locked into a variable interest rate, which became a brutal obstacle in our first year. We tapped into working capital prematurely and spent our first several months in survival mode. But we never compromised on our goals.
We wanted WVH to be different. Clients aren’t numbers in a database. Patient care isn’t done on an assembly line. We designed this hospital with heart, with soul, and with deep intentionality—blending warmth and comfort with medical excellence.
Every inch of WVH reflects that vision. Species-specific exam rooms are fully enclosed to reduce noise and stress. Dogs and cats have separate wards. We installed slow-close cabinetry to avoid loud slamming. ICU patients recover behind sliding glass doors that keep them calm yet observable. We have glass-fronted kennels for easy monitoring, rounded workstation corners to prevent bumps and bruises, and a turfed outdoor yard for dogs to relax and relieve themselves.
At the center of the treatment area sits the DVM office—affectionately named “The Fishbowl.” It’s built largely of glass, allowing 360-degree visibility of ICU, treatment, dental, surgery, and core hallways. I can oversee everything, stay accessible to my team, and remain connected to patient care at all times.
We prioritized natural light, with large windows throughout and three oversized skylights flooding the treatment area with daylight. There’s even a heated bidet in the staff restroom—because happy teams stay longer and work better when you treat them like family. Our comfort room, used for difficult conversations or end-of-life care, has its own separate exit so grieving families don’t have to walk back through the lobby. And, looking to the future, we’ve strategically positioned the vital mechanical systems away from our southern wall to allow for a potential 4,000 sq ft expansion as we grow.
WVH is more than a veterinary hospital—it’s a reflection of everything I believe veterinary medicine should be: progressive, personal, and rooted in community. We took the best of corporate efficiency and private practice warmth, and wove them into a single facility built to last. A year in, we’re not just surviving—we’re thriving.
We’ve overcome construction delays, financial pressure, and the steep climb of a startup in a competitive industry. And we’ve done it while preserving the one thing I refused to lose: our soul. Clients know us. They feel seen here. And I truly believe that’s what makes Windsong Veterinary Hospital unique—not just in design, but in spirit.
