Meet the veterinarians
About Dr. Erin Clark
I was born in Worthington, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus, and have been drawn to animals since childhood. In fact, my very first word was not “Mama” or “Dada,” but “dog.”
Fueled by my passion for animals, I decided to pursue a career in veterinary medicine and headed off to Ohio State University—Go Bucks!—where many of my family members had also attended. I completed my undergraduate studies and veterinary school at OSU, and I am very proud to be a Buckeye.
After graduating, I worked in general practice and emergency medicine, caring for animals and supporting families during some of the hardest moments of their lives. Through my work, I’ve come to value the beauty of the human and animal bond and the importance of providing quality end-of-life care. We all deserve dignity, respect, and comfort during our lives—and when we pass. If we could choose, most of us would prefer to spend our final moments in the comfort of our home, surrounded by our family, and I believe our pets would choose that, too.
My role at Lap of Love gives me the opportunity to provide pets with a peaceful and dignified passing in a familiar environment with the people they love while supporting families as they grieve the loss of a family member.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my own animals, including my two cats, two rabbits, and three dogs.
