Veterinarian
Dr. Lauren Firestine is a Pittsburgh native who recently moved back to Butler, PA to be of service for her community and be close to family. She attended The University of Findlay in Ohio for undergraduate studies where she fell in love with food animal medicine. She continued on to Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine; and completed her clinical year at THE Ohio State University.
Dr. Firestine enjoys connecting with her clients and being able to be an advocate for the creatures who don’t have a voice. She loves to say “Animals talk, you just have to listen the right way”.
In her free time, Dr. Firestine loves to play golf to honor her late father. You can also catch her watching hockey, or spending time with her husband and 5 dogs at home; Brooks, Duke, Jim, Milkshake and Zeke.
Dr. Firestine lost both her father and her son, Owen in 2023. These are both two main driving forces for her output of empathy and work ethic to maintain the human - animal bond.
The animals she will see for appointments include cats, dogs and food animals.
