"I think that something I am honored to witness on a daily basis is the power of the human-animal bond. We now have so much more information about how we connect with our pets and how they connect with us, and how that affects us and them both mentally and physically. As a child, I was fascinated by this connection, and now as a veterinary professional I am honored to share in the task of preserving that bond."
Originally born and raised in Louisiana, Dr. Lannes relocated to Winter Springs, FL several years ago to practice veterinary medicine and loves everything that the Sunshine State has to offer.
From the time she was a small child, Dr. Lannes always had a special connection with and appreciation for animals. The love and fascination she had for animals in her childhood did not diminish over time, and she was lucky enough to be able to follow her passion and pursue a career in veterinary medicine. She has always considered it an honor to be able to care for and advocate for our four-legged family members. She often refers to herself as “the pediatrician for the furry kids,” since they cannot speak to us in the traditional sense and tell us how they are feeling. It is so important to listen to pet parents when describing concerns, and to look, feel, and listen to what our pets are telling us during a physical evaluation.
Dr. Lannes gets so much satisfaction knowing that she is helping pets and their families live their best life together. While her passion for animals drove her into the profession, the satisfaction that she gets from partnering with a family to facilitate them in taking the best possible care of their pet is what drives her to be the best veterinarian she can be.
Dr. Lannes' professional interests include behavior medicine, internal medicine, allergy and dermatology, and nurturing the human-animal bond. Outside of work, she enjoys college football, going to theme parks with her family, and live music.
