Colby
(Veterinary Assistant/Receptionist)
Colby was born and raised in the greater Houston area. He frequently visited his grandparent’s ranch where he developed a love for all animals, both big and small, at a very young age.
Colby came to visit us as a client with his American Hairless Terrier, “Predator” in 2016. Having a dermatology need dog of his own, along with 10+ years in veterinary medicine has made him a wonderful fit for Southwest Veterinary Dermatology. Colby joined our team in March of 2022.

Colby enjoys spending time with his husband, David, and their four dogs (all American Hairless Terriers), and a menagerie of toads, chickens, box turtles and frogs.
