Lauren Coons
@laurencoons
Experienced veterinary technician skilled in clinical care and client services.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am an experienced veterinary technician who provides compassionate patient care and strong support to veterinary teams. I have years of hands-on experience drawing blood, placing IV catheters, assisting in surgery, and preparing prescriptions.
I am proficient with practice management and diagnostic systems such as Idexx, eVet, and Avimark, and I bring reliable laboratory and clinical skills to every shift. I also have experience managing front-desk responsibilities including scheduling, phone triage, and payments.
My background includes diverse roles that strengthened my client communication and organizational abilities — from receptionist and administrative assistant positions to childcare work. I adapt quickly, train new staff, and maintain calm under pressure.
I am authorized to work in the US and seek a role where I can continue delivering high-quality patient care, contribute to a collaborative clinic team, and expand my clinical responsibilities.
