Lauryn Taylor
Technician

Lauryn has been with Thompson's Veterinary Care since August 2016. She was born in Naples, FL and raised in Lakes Wales. She has 3 fur babies; a one-year-old pit bull mix named Nala. Nala loves everyone (and food). Polly, a 1-year-old DSH cat, loves getting her chin rubbed. She got her from TVC when someone brought her in from the street. And last but not least, the newest addition to the family is Fluffy. Fluffy is a DLH cat that Lauryn also got from TVC when someone brought her in and she was lifeless. But now Fluffy is as lively as can be. If Lauryn is not at TVC she is hanging out with her family and playing with her fur babies. She volunteered at Veterinary HealthCare Associates for 2 and a half years and now she is going to start her second year of college in August. 

Erika Bulington
Technician/Office Support

In April of 2018, I became Fear Free certified. I have six kitties that share THEIR home with me. I love working with Dr. Thompson--I get to learn and experience new things all the time! I have one son who has a passion for welding and his cat, Gremlin. In my free time, you can find me hanging out with friends, geocaching, reading or doodling a little artwork.
