Summer Creek Animal Clinic opened in 2018 and is family owned and operated. We began with a mission to provide a Fear-Free experience with compassionate and excellent client service and patient care. We are the first and only AAHA accredited and Fear-Free certified hospital in Fort Worth, TX. We are looking for team members who are passionate about what they do and want to help us carry out our mission as a Fear-Free hospital and to build and grow a positive work culture. We are intentionally only open Monday-Friday to help provide more life balance in a stressful and demanding field. We are located in Southwest Fort Worth in a rapidly growing and developing part of the city. Fort Worth has much to offer like its neighbor Dallas, but with a smaller and slower feel. The food options are rich and diverse, the music and art scene is thriving, and the museums and zoo are some of the best. Downtown Fort Worth is known for its food and nightlife as well as being one of the cleanest downtowns in the country. Thanks to Chisholm Trail Parkway the clinic is only 15 minutes from the heart of downtown as well as popular areas such as Magnolia Ave and West 7th.
