Lauren Beaird

Dr. Beaird’s journey to becoming a veterinarian began when, as a child, her grandfather would share meaningful pearls of wisdom about plants and animals when they visited her grandparent’s cottage. Her love for animals continued to grow and in 2015, she graduated from the University of Illinois Champaign Urbana. In 2019, Dr. Beaird became a Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist through the Chi Institute. After five years as a relief veterinarian, she fell in love with the team at Lane Vet and settled in as a part-time veterinarian.

Her goal as a veterinarian is to be a part of your pet’s care team, to serve you both, and to truly listen to your questions and concerns. She wants to be approachable, and for you to know she believes wholeheartedly in individualized care that reflects your pet’s unique lifestyle.

Dr. Beaird and her husband have 2 beautiful boys who keep them laughing, learning, and incredibly busy. She currently has no pets since losing Finn and discovering that her oldest son has severe allergies to pets.

In her free time, Dr. Lauren loves being outside no matter the weather. She also enjoys vegetable gardening, crocheting, practicing watercolor, baking sourdough, and cherishes her time with family and friends.
