Calhoun County Animal Control Center

Dr. Eric Clanton

Hi, I am Dr. Eric Clanton and I have been a Veterinarian for 14 years. I grew up in Collinsville and decided to work with animlas because I have always been around them. I attended Auburn University for Vet school. After leaving Auburn I went to Arizona and worked with large and small animals. I worked with pigs in Indiana for a few months. I came back to Alabama and continued working with large and small animals. I decided to settle down and get married; now I have two small children. I have been working with small animals for the past 7 years. I am a country boy at heart and I like being able to help others by helping their pets.
