Meet The Team

Dr. Brawner was raised on a professional Quarter Horse farm in central Alabama, where she developed an interest in animals at a very early age. She obtained her Bachelor of Science degree in Zoology from Auburn University.  She then attended veterinary school at St. Matthew’s University and completed her clinical year rotations at Oklahoma State University.

After practicing in general practice for a couple of years, she was excited for the unique opportunity to practice emergency medicine at a busy, multi-specialty referral center. She enjoyed the opportunity to follow complex and emergency cases with multiple specialists. Her professional interests include internal medicine, radiology, ultrasonography and critical care.  Her passion to be part of a client-centered general practice that provides comprehensive care for the pets in the community has finally been realized with the purchase of 30A Vet. 

Dr. Brawner is pictured above with her French Bulldog, “Eleanor,” the new mascot for 30A Vet! She also has a Great Dane named “Loretta” and a cat named “Kit Kat”.

“Not only did I literally grow up in this profession as my brother and father both were Veterinarians but twenty plus years of experience in both clinical and pharmaceutical areas of Veterinary Medicine has provided me with a unique perspective to develop alliances and to build relationships with potential internal and external customers. Upon graduation in 1994, I practiced in Tennessee, Kentucky, Oregon, Virginia, and Maryland before joining the Veterinary Operations team with Pfizer Animal Health. In 2014 I returned to private practice as an associate Veterinarian for Banfield Pet Hospital in Destin Florida and my recent clinical experience with the largest “Corporate Practice” in the US has renewed my interest in wellness plans and the importance of preventative medicine.
Additionally, my 13 years of Industry experience provided me with a multitude of diverse experiences with many cross functional teams such as New Products Marketing, Technical Writing, Learning and Development, Research and Development, Strength-Based Coaching, and Pharmacovigilance. In 2006, I was certified as a FRANK Communications Facilitator and I have conducted hundreds of Communication Workshops for Veterinary Health Professionals in the Mid-Atlantic.
For three years I oversaw the Pfizer Education Alliance Program which at the time was the only structured educational program in place for each of the respective Veterinary Schools across the country involving student representatives, as well as student and faculty awards. I have also served as the Pfizer Liaison for Auburn, Tuskegee, and Virginia Tech Colleges of Veterinary Medicine”.
