The Beechnut Story

Dr. Ferlin Tutt founded Beechnut Animal Clinic over forty years ago. He was well respected and loved by his clients. The hospitals’ location was originally suburban but the population explosion caused massive growth and the city of Houston now surpasses us by 20 miles! Dr. Tutt has since retired from day to day practice and now spends his time performing veterinary medical missionary work in underserved countries. We wish him the best!   

The compassion lives on

Dr. Greg Matt purchased Beechnut Animal Clinic nine years ago. After an internal remodel and addition of new state of the art medical equipment he created a growth spurt and renewed recognition for the clinic. The market area surrounding Beechnut has also experienced revitalization with the construction of Southwest Memorial Hospital, Baylor’s’ physical therapy complex, and multiple high-rise medical professional buildings. “We’re becoming a mini medical center over here at Highway 59 and Beechnut” said Dr. Matt. With all the human hospitals and doctors offices it’s one stop shopping. Drop your pet off for his doctor’s exam with us then take the rest of the family down the street to theirs’.
