With a one thousand dollar loan cosigned by his father, Dr. Mike Yacapraro and his wife, Jane, set off to renovate a former steakhouse into a modern veterinary facility. That was in 1968. Today, that facility at 3050 Lincoln Way East stands as a testament to the Yacapraro's promise of loving care with a commitment to excellence. Dr. Mike and Jane Yacapraro opened the Wooster Animal Clinic in August, 1968. During the early months, it was just the two of them. In fact, clients would often see several of their small children in a playpen tucked behind the reception desk! Fortunately soon thereafter, they were able to hire some support staff, enabling Jane to spend more time at home with their growing family. Both remained active with the clinic until their passing. Though we lost both Dr. Mike and Jane in 2018, their memories remain with all of us at Wooster Animal Clinic. Keeping it in the family, our clinic has passed to a second generation of owners
