Dr. Amanda Lawler is originally from New Jersey and earned her Bachelor of Science degrees in Animal Sciences and Biological Sciences from Rutgers University in 2011. She received her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Oklahoma State University in 2016. Dr. Lawler completed a rotating internship in small animal medicine and surgery at Oradell Animal Hospital, where she went on to pursue a specialty internship followed by a three-year cardiology residency. After completing her residency, she remained on staff at Oradell for four additional years, working closely with the emergency and specialty teams to provide advanced, compassionate care. She decided that after almost 10 years, she wanted to take on a new journey. She has since founded her own consulting business with the goal of expanding access to high-quality cardiology care within the veterinary community. Dr. Lawler is happily married to her husband, Bryan, and together they have two sons, Jonathan and Matthew. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her family and taking trips to the Poconos or the beach.
