Dr. Lynne Lankes

Doctor Lankes joined our practice in 2001 (after practicing back East for 4 years and then 2 years in Southern CA). She graduated with Honors from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1995. She is one of those people you hear about that wanted to be a Vet at age 5, and actually achieved it! Her extensive experience in avian, reptile and small mammal ICU care has elevated the level of medicine we provide here at CMCEH. Dr. Lankes has lived in many places including Hawaii and the Caribbean, but has chosen to settle in the Bay Area to be close to both her family and the domestic exotic patient world. She is owned by her cat Lord Latte, and supervised by an angora rabbit, many snakes, a chameleon, and four large parrots...and a very understanding husband! She is currently pursuing her board certification in avian medicine.

"Dr. Lynne" maintains membership in: the Association of Avian Veterinarians (AAV), the Association of Reptile and Amphibian Veterinarians (ARAV), the Association of Exotic Mammal Veterinarians (AEMV).
