Dr. Richard H. Lisk, Founder and Practice Owner

Dr. Lisk was born and raised in North Carolina. As a young boy, he always had a menagerie of pets, from hamsters and turtles to dogs and cats. While in high school, he worked part-time at a local veterinary clinic and it was from that experience that he decided to pursue veterinary medicine as a career.

After graduating from North Carolina State University with a degree in Zoology, Dr. Lisk attended graduate school at The Ohio State University, College of Veterinary Medicine.  He received his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine in 1984.    Dr. Lisk also completed a post-graduate Internship in Small Animal Medicine and Surgery at The Animal Medical Center in NYC.

Prior to establishing Bay Glen Animal Hospital in 1990, Dr. Lisk worked as an associate veterinarian in several multi-doctor practices in Connecticut, New York and Texas. He enjoys many aspects of veterinary medicine including challenging internal medical cases, ultrasonography, orthopedic surgery, and practice management.

Dr. Lisk feels very fortunate to have established his practice in Clear Lake. The surrounding community has embraced his vision of high quality pet care with exceptional customer service. The hospital and staff have grown and flourished under his direction and management.   Bay Glen’s success and growth wouldn’t have been possible without its commitment to maintaining a knowledgeable and well-trained staff, offering the best medical care available, and being devoted to educating pet owners about the many advances in pet health care.

Dr. Lisk and his wife, Carol, reside in the Clear Lake area with their three cats, “Louie”, “Huey” and “Hoover” as well as “Oreo” a Shih-Tzu and “Harley” a Golden Retriever. In his time away from the office, he enjoys spending time with his (nearly grown) children, Michael and Dana, touring on motorcycles, working in the yard, traveling and being active in his church.
