Our Veterinarians

Growing up, Butch Schroyer was often found in the creek, lake, woods, or fields around his family home. If a creature didn’t run, crawl, slither, fly, swim, or scurry fast enough it would come home with him! By the time he was a junior in high school, Butch knew he wanted to become a veterinarian.

Dr. Schroyer completed his undergraduate work at the University of Kentucky before getting his DVM from the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine. After working at several practices in Kentucky, Dr. Schroyer and his wife opened their first animal hospital in 1981. In 1983, he opened another hospital in Lexington, which would eventually become the Animal Care Clinic!

As a veterinarian, Butch particularly enjoys reproductive medicine and preventative health care. He loves adding to a pet’s time and quality of life.

Dr. Schroyer lives with his wife, Charlsey. They have a son, Avery, who is married and about to graduate with his doctorate in Physical Therapy. They have a several pets as well: Gus, a Yorkie; Amarula, a South African Mastiff; Mazzi, a Doberman Pinscher; Emmet, a yellow tabby cat who lives indoors; Tweety, a blue and gold macaw; and JoJo, a yellow naped Amazon parrot.

Butch has recently gotten back into playing the saxophone and has begun playing in a local concert band. He also enjoys fishing and biking in his spare time.
