Dr. Francisco Alvarez

Dr. Francisco Alvarez, born and raised in Baytown, Texas, always harbored a deep desire to become a veterinarian. His passion for animals grew even stronger when he embarked on his veterinary journey at Baytown Animal Hospital as a kennel technician while attending Baytown Sterling High School. Witnessing the remarkable work of Dr. Christensen, a veterinarian, mentor, and friend, Dr. Alvarez was inspired by the selfless service and animal-saving efforts that Dr. Christensen provided to the community. During his formative years at Baytown Animal Hospital, Dr. Alvarez had the privilege of being mentored by Dr. Christensen, who imparted valuable knowledge about veterinary medicine and the pursuit of higher education. Dr. Christensen's anecdotes about his experiences at Texas A&M University left an indelible mark on Dr. Alvarez. Fueled by this inspiration, Dr. Alvarez earned his undergraduate and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees from Texas A&M, becoming the first in his family to graduate from college. His exceptional resilience and determination in the face of adversity were recognized when he was bestowed with the prestigious Aggie Spirit Award.

After completing his veterinary education, Dr. Alvarez practiced in Bryan, Texas, for several years. However, in June 2020, the sudden and devastating loss of Dr. Christensen sent shockwaves through the Baytown community. With Baytown Animal Hospital facing the possibility of permanent closure without a successor, Dr. Alvarez understood the immense need and made the courageous decision to return to Baytown with his family and acquire the hospital. Dr. Alvarez's commitment to preserving the legacy of exceptional veterinary care earned him the esteemed title of PSI Practitioner of the Year in 2021. From his humble beginnings as a kennel technician, he has now become the proud owner of Baytown Animal Hospital, dedicated to providing his hometown with the highest quality veterinary care. Dr. Alvarez's contributions extend beyond his veterinary practice. He actively serves as an advisor for the City of Baytown on the Animal Control Committee, advocating for the welfare of animals in the community. Additionally, he generously supports various school organizations within the Goose Creek CISD. At home, Dr. Alvarez, together with his wife Isabel and their children Andrew and Alyssa, shares their lives with three dogs (Chance, Aggie, and Sophie) and two cats (Kitty and Sushi). In his leisure time, he finds solace and joy in spending precious moments with his family, watching Aggie football, and immersing himself in outdoor activities like hiking and fishing. Dr. Francisco Alvarez epitomizes a veterinarian driven by compassion, expertise, and an unwavering commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of animals and the community he serves.
