Veterinarian and Owner
Dr. Lorie studied human medicine in college before making the switch to veterinary care. One night during her studies, she had a peculiar dream that changed her entire life. She dreamt she was driving along a back road and came upon a deer who had been hit by a car—Dr. Lorie immediately rushed to save the deer’s life. Upon waking up, she realized that she wanted to dedicate herself to animal medicine! Dr. Lorie hasn’t looked back since, and is now the proud owner and operator of her very own pet clinic: Critter Care Veterinary Hospital.
Dr. Lorie was born in western Philadelphia and grew up in southern New Jersey. After studying in the biomedical program at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in upstate New York, she changed her major to veterinary medicine and took a job at a local pet clinic shortly afterward. Upon graduating, she worked part-time at a veterinary hospital in Marlton, New Jersey while also working full-time in research at The Wistar Institute and Jefferson Hospital. Next, Dr. Lorie attended the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Veterinary Medicine to earn her degree in veterinary care, graduating as a veterinarian in 1992.
