Dr. Cheri Honnas

owner at honnas veterinary

Originally from Bryan, Texas, Dr Cheri Honnas followed in her veterinarian father’s footsteps, studying at Texas A&M School of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, before moving into the field. Dr. Honnas later returned to Texas A&M for her residency before she began working overnights at Lakeway Veterinary where she learned key information about what it means to be an emergency vet. With a clear vision for what Honnas Veterinary should be based on the needs of Austin’s pets and their owners, Dr Honnas then opened her own vet clinic on South Lamar Blvd, where she leads a team of caring and devoted staff, to deliver a range of veterinary services with excellence.
