Lauren Williams
Veterinary Technician
Lauren began her career in the veterinary field in 2000, when she started working as a receptionist for VCA Grossmont Animal Hospital while attending ROP classes for her Veterinary Assistant Certification. Later that year she began working as a veterinary assistant and learned to draw blood, place IV catheters, assist in exams, vaccinations, and routine spay and neuters. In 2002, Lauren started in the specialty veterinary field as an animal dermatology technician. For six years she worked as the only technician in her department before moving on to the ER and ICU, where she continued learning new skills in emergency medicine. In late 2008, Lauren took a hiatus in her professional life, but was back in October of 2010 when she began working at Pacific Beach Veterinary Clinic as a receptionist and vet tech, and was eventually promoted to assistant manager. She worked there until early 2021. When Lauren isn’t at the clinic, she is home tending to her own little farm. Lauren has been married to her long-time boyfriend of fourteen years for four years now, and together they have five French Bulldogs, one Boston terrier, three cats, two birds, one fish tank and fifteen lizards. They also have two human sons, Austin (22) and Madden (11).
