Veterinarian and Owner
Dr. Craig Jones grew up on a farm west of Comanche, Oklahoma in the small town of Corum. Dr. Jones attended Southwestern Oklahoma State University in Weatherford, Oklahoma on a rodeo scholarship and received a degree in Industrial Arts. Dr. Jones then received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma in 1989 and began practicing veterinary medicine in a mixed practice in Espanola, New Mexico. In 1990, Dr. Jones came to Texas and began working as an associate at the Northside Animal Clinic. He became the sole owner when he purchased the practice from Dr. Owen in 1993. Dr. Jones is licensed to practice medicine in Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Colorado. He is a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Texas Veterinary Medical Association, is a member of the Deans Developmental Advisory Board at the Oklahoma State University College of Veterinary Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine Alumni Association, the Johnson County Livestock Association, past member of the Johnson County Sheriffs Posse and is a member of the National Sporting Clays Association.
Dr. Jones has been married to Stephanie since 1994 and they have two daughters, Lauren and Lindsey. When not practicing medicine, Dr. Jones is an avid sporting clays shooter, enjoys hunting, fishing, NASCAR, and most of all telling his wife and children endless and pointless homilies. Throughout the years, the Jones family has owned a variety of pets including horses, cows, dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, goats, parakeets, rabbits, donkeys, water buffalo, and a pet possum with an effervescent personality. Dr. Jones yellow lab, ‘Junebug” is his newest pet and can be seen most days roaming around the practice as the official greeter.
