Dr. Jessica Hamilton is the sole owner and operator of The Equine Lameness Center. Following Graduation from Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine in 2012, Dr. Hamilton immediately began working as an intern at Lone Star Park Equine Hospital in Grand Prairie, Texas. After the internship Dr. Hamilton stayed one more year as an associate.
In May 2014, Stephenville Equine Sports Medicine was started with her Mentor Dr. Rob Franklin. For the next three years SEQSM was a busy rodeo equine sports medicine practice located in the heart of Stephenville, Texas. In August of 2017, another partner bought into the practice and later was sold the practice.
January 2020, The Equine Lameness Center was established as a Mobile Equine Sports Medicine practice with intentions of building a haul-in facility.
In 2018, Dr. Hamilton successfully became certified by the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association in Animal Chiropractic at Parker University located in Dallas, Texas.
In 2019, Dr. Hamilton completed The Equine Acupuncture Course at The Chi Institute located in Reddick, Florida.
In January 2022, TEqLC’s land was purchased and in September 2022, The Equine Lameness Center opened our 50x60 climate controlled facility complete with three ICU stalls and a 50X60 covered lameness pad. While our haul-in facility is still undergoing improvements we are 100% operational at this time.
In Dr. Hamilton’s spare time, she barrel races on her horses Sugar Bar Dash and Mary Jane. Dr. Hamilton also prioritizes going to church, working out and spending time with her husband, family and friends.
