Dr. Lisk was born and raised in North Carolina. As a young boy, Dr. Lisk was always fascinated by animals. He had a variety of pets from hamsters and turtles to dogs and cats. While in high school, he got a part-time job at a veterinary hospital and it was from that experience that he decided to pursue veterinary medicine as a career.
Dr. Lisk received his undergraduate degree in Zoology from North Carolina State University in 1980 and his doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from Ohio State University in 1984. Following graduation from veterinary school, he completed a one year Internship in Small Animal Medicine and Surgery at The Animal Medical Center in New York City.
Prior to starting his private practice in 1990, Dr. Lisk worked as an associate veterinarian for several animal hospitals in Connecticut, New York and Texas. He enjoys many aspects of veterinary medicine including challenging internal medical cases, orthopedic surgery, and practice management. Dr. Lisk feels very fortunate to have established his practice in Clear Lake. The community has embraced his vision of high quality pet care with exceptional customer service. The hospital staff has grown and flourished under his direction. He firmly believes that the hospital's remarkable success is in large part due to the commitment of providing a knowledgeable, courteous and well-trained staff, offering the best medical care available, and being committed to educating clients about advances in pet health care.
Dr. Lisk is the proud father of two children, a son Michael, and a daughter Dana. He resides in the Clear Lake area with his Shih Tzu "Oreo" and his Birman kitten "Norton".

Dr. Tina Han
 Dr. Tina Han entered veterinary medicine as a second career. After graduating with honors from Rice University with an engineering degree, she worked in IT consulting and spent the next 5 years as a management consultant. When she realized that her true calling in life was not implementing ERP systems in large corporations, she settled down in Houston and worked at Reliant Resources while attending school part-time to obtain her prerequisites for veterinary school. This non-traditional background allowed Dr. Han to enter veterinary school with a unique perspective and aided her in excelling in her academic studies.
Dr. Han graduated with top honors from Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine. She aims to couple compassionate medicine with a logical mind and enjoys spending time with owners to educate them on their pet's health. She recognizes the individual needs of her patients and clients and prides herself on delivering the highest quality medicine. Dr. Han's special interests include internal medicine, imaging, and in particular feline medicine.
Dr. Han calls the Houston Heights home. She shares her 100-year-old bungalow with her husband, two adorable dogs, three beloved cats, and a goldfish named "John Smith". In her free time, she enjoys traveling, outdoor adventures, romantic comedies, eating, laughing, and taking naps.
