👋 Meet Hector | Senior Veterinary Assistant
Since joining the Fort Mill Animal Hospital team in 2021, Hector has brought a calm, steady presence to our clinic — and a genuine love for animals of all kinds (yes, even bugs!). 🐾
Growing up, Hector wasn’t allowed to have pets, so he spent his childhood exploring under rocks and studying insects — a curiosity that eventually led him into veterinary medicine. Today, he assists our doctors in surgeries and dental procedures, helping each patient receive the best care possible.
At home, Hector’s life is full of furry (and tiny!) friends — two Frenchies, GG and her daughter Vada, two cats, WB and Girl Kitty, and even a collection of ant colonies. 🐶🐱🐜
Outside the clinic, you’ll find him snowboarding or skateboarding, and running his small gardening supply store in Gaffney, SC, where he grows rare plants and gourmet mushrooms. 🌿🍄
When asked what makes Fort Mill Animal Hospital special, Hector shared:
“The care and genuine love we have for all our patients.” 💙
We couldn’t agree more. Help us thank Hector for all the heart and dedication he brings to our team! Comment below if you've met Hector at our office! 💬
