Dr Lauren Fletcher

Veterinarian

Dr Lauren joined our team in October 2024. Lauren grew up on a cattle station in Central Queensland which meant she had many animal friends. During her veterinary career, she has worked in various mixed animal clinics including over in the UK. She was solely an equine veterinarian for 6 years until she returned to small animal GP practice in 2022. While horses have been her passion since childhood, she also loves cats and dogs equally – so naturally she is a pet parent to all of them.

Lauren loves the variety which comes with general practice. She has a special interest in both behaviour and alternative therapies including acupuncture.
