CityVet, a network of 39 veterinarian-owned practices, announced today that it has acquired The Animal Hospital at Steiner Ranch in Austin, Texas. The clinic, located at 5145 Ranch Road 620 North, Suite F140, has been run by Tamera Cole, DVM, for the last 10 years.

“I am incredibly thankful for my patients and all the wonderful client relationships we’ve cultivated over the years. We are thrilled to join the CityVet network and transition our patients and team into the excellent care of the CityVet team who believes in putting people at the center of everything they do,” expressed Cole, in an organizational release.¹ 

“I will be transitioning out to seek further study and certification in Animal Behavior, and Heidi Moore, DVM, a long-time local resident, will assume ownership and leadership responsibilities at the clinic. I've had the pleasure of getting to know Dr Moore and I have complete confidence in her capacity to uphold the clinic's high standards, to which our clients and team have grown accustomed," she continued.

According to the release, Moore attended the St Georges University of Veterinary Medicine for her veterinary education and spent her final year at the Louisiana State University.¹ Currently, she is serving as the area veterinarian for Austin Zoo and has experience in mixed animal medicine. She practiced at Lakeway Vet Clinic for 10 years and held the medical director position for 2 of those 10 years. Her interests include emergency care, internal medicine, preventive medicine, mixed animal and exotic medicine.

“Cole and her team have a well-established clinic in Austin with a strong reputation as a trusted veterinarian in the community. Our partnership with Moore will bring added value and expanded services to their clients and staff with enhanced tools and support. We are excited about contributing to the continued legacy established by Cole and her team in Austin,” said David Boguslawski, CityVet CEO.¹

During the transition, the clinic will be adding extended hours during the week and weekends and Moore will begin offering surgeries and expanding dental services to patients in need. According to the release, the terms of the transaction were not disclosed and the acquisition went into effect May 10, 2024.¹
