Meet the Team

Veterinarians

Cale Thomasson

Dr. Cale Thomasson
Veterinarian

Dr. Cale Thomasson is originally from Rockwall, Texas, where she grew up with an older sister and a few family pets. She played soccer and basketball as well as was very active in 4-H and FFA raising and showing hogs throughout her school years. She enjoyed travelling to state and national shows all year long where she met many lifelong friends.

After high school, Dr. Thomasson earned a Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources Animal Science from Oklahoma State University in 2019. Dr. Thomasson also earned her DVM from Oklahoma State University in 2022. She tracked mixed animal medicine better preparing her to serve patients large and small. Her time at Oklahoma State University has given her the best memories, allowed her to make many lifelong best friends, and taught her to serve her patients with the utmost care, respect and love. It also fostered her passion for reproductive medicine, preventative medicine and bringing veterinary care to areas of need.

When Dr. Thomasson is not working she enjoys offshore fishing with her husband, Zach. Her favorite fish to catch include red snapper, king mackerel, dorado and sharks. She also loves to read a good book and spend time playing with her two dogs, Ranger and Paisley.

Dr. Thomasson is part of the team full time now with appointments available all day throughout the week and is very excited to meet all our clients and patients, new or old!
