ESSEX, MD – October 7, 2026 – VetEvolve is pleased to welcome Oak Hammock Animal Hospital in Sebring, Florida, to its growing community of veterinary practices. 

Led by Medical Director Dr. Chris O’Sullivan, Oak Hammock Animal Hospital is a three-doctor practice providing high-quality veterinary care to dogs and cats throughout Highlands, Hardee, and Polk counties. 

“What stood out to us about Oak Hammock is the history behind the practice and Chris’ connection to it,” said Clayton Stanley, Chief Development Officer of VetEvolve. “He started his veterinary career there as a college student, returned home to Sebring to eventually lead the practice, and has built a team that’s deeply invested in the community. We’re proud to be part of what comes next for Oak Hammock.” 

Through its partnership with VetEvolve, Oak Hammock Animal Hospital will maintain its name, local identity, and commitment to its clients and patients while gaining additional resources and support. The partnership allows the team to continue focusing on delivering high-quality veterinary medicine and serving the families who have trusted Oak Hammock with their pets’ care. 

“Oak Hammock has been an important part of my life for a long time, and I’m incredibly proud of what our team has built here,” said Dr. Chris O’Sullivan, Medical Director of Oak Hammock Animal Hospital. “Finding a partner that understands what makes this practice special was important to me. With VetEvolve, we can preserve the relationships and culture that have shaped Oak Hammock while giving our team additional support and resources for the future.”
