About Us

Laurie Peek, DVM

Veterinary Program Director

Dr. Laurie Peek has practiced small animal medicine and surgery since her graduation from Cornell’s College of Veterinary Medicine. In addition to her daily hands-on work helping animals feel better, Dr. Peek is a major force at Maddie’s Fund, guiding decisions on veterinary school grants and guidelines and consulting with other staff on veterinary related issues. Dr. Peek’s goal, to encourage veterinary schools to provide more professional support to animal shelters and educate them on new studies regarding health and long term shelter care, fits perfectly with the mission of Maddie’s Fund.

Dr. Peek has been affiliated with the foundation since its inception. Although her sheltie dog Anna, cats Amanda, Aggie, Moses and Tangi, and horses Lewi, Sonnet, and Madison are all special, Dr. Peek has an extra special place in her heart for her first dog, Macey, an 11 year old lab/shepherd mix.
