Kevin J. May, DVM
 
 
Dr. May grew up in the Panhandle town of Sudan, Texas. It was there that he worked on a farm and was involved in the care, raising and showing of just about every animal possible. Being from a small town (only 23 in his graduating class), he kept his mind open as to what he wanted to major in when he went to Angelo State University, in San Angelo, Texas. To help him decide, he followed the same advice he gives young people today.

When you wake up every morning, even on your worst day, ask yourself this question: “What is it that you would not mind doing this morning?” Then go do it!

As a result, he came back to his roots of working with and caring for animals, and gets up every morning and does it!
