History
Boerne Veterinary Clinic was opened by Dr. Ray Smart DVM in 1977. The old Boerne Locker Plant and Market was converted to a full service veterinary clinic with 2 exam rooms, surgery suite, and hospitalization for companion animals. Dr. Steve Rapp DVM purchased the clinic in April of 2002 from Dr. Lee Carriker, DVM. The practice has tripled in size since that purchase. In the summer of 2011, Dr. Rapp with the help of his wife Laura renovated the building into a facility that is more respectful of Boerne architecture. This includes 3 exam rooms, an updated surgery, and more office space. The waiting room is charmingly decorated using antique church pews for seating.
