Our History
Began in 1988
Founded by the late Dr. Sandy Johnson, Hillside Veterinary Clinic began in a small, storefront shopping mall on Mockingbird Lane and Hillside Drive in Dallas. Dr. Dickson Bain became its owner in 1988.
1988 - 2000
Hillside outgrew its former location, and in 1994 the Clinic moved to a two-story, free-standing facility on East Mockingbird Lane. In 1989 Dr. Bain was joined by Dr. Stephanie Chritton and in 1995 by Dr. Sarah Huskey. The three veterinarians formed a partnership in 2000.
2004
With an ever-increasing patient base, but nowhere to grow, Hillside's decision to expand and spin-off a canine and feline practice was realized in the 2004 construction of the Abrams Forest Veterinary Clinic.
Located in the Lake Highlands neighborhood, just fifteen minutes from Hillside, the beautiful 5,000 square feet, and contemporary facility provides medical and surgical services strictly for cats and dogs.
2011
Hillside Veterinary Clinic purchased Preston Royal Animal Clinic which has been serving the North Dallas area for over 40 years. Founded in 1969, by retired veterinarian, Dr. Malcolm Cameron, PRAC has grown and changed along with the vibrant community that it serves.
