Bridger Smithers, DVM/Owner

Dr. Bridger Smithers was born and raised in Atlanta, Texas. His love for animals developed early in life and by the age of seven he knew he wanted to be a veterinarian like his father, Dr. Mark Smithers. Dr. Smithers graduated from Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine with his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2015. Following graduation, he began his career practicing medicine in a busy 5-doctor, mixed-animal hospital in northeast Texas. In 2017, he moved to Northwest Arkansas and established Smithers Animal Hospital in West Fork. He and his wife, Andrea have since welcomed three children, Ezra, Arielle, and Ransom. Their pet family includes our clinic cats, Jack and Mosby, Cruz the maltipoo and Koda the great pyrenees. They enjoy being part of the small community of West Fork.
