Mike Nigliazzo, DVM
Dr. Mike Nigliazzo has a special talent for both listening to his clients and helping them understand their pet’s condition. He joined The PARC team in 2000 when it was known as Hulen Hills. To him, The PARC philosophy means “family” – helping not just the individual patient but the whole family through the good times and the bad. He has a particular interest in dermatology, dentistry and internal medicine. Dr. Nigliazzo also serves as the Medical Director at The PARC and leads the medical staff, both veterinarians and technicians.
Growing up on a farm in Navasota, Texas, Dr. Nigliazzo decided to become a veterinarian in high school. He earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 2000 from Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine. While still at school, he gained experience working in a mixed animal practice and later as a surgery technician in the vet school.
Mike’s wife, Sarah, is a nurse practitioner, and they have three lovely children and two King Charles spaniels named Millie and Winnie.
Personal motto: Find joy in every circumstance. This ties into his favorite quote: "Those who spread sunshine can't help but feel the warmth of the rays themselves."
Advice for pet owners: Keep their weight ideal so they can live a long life and you can love them even longer.
