Dr. Aurora Lambert earned both her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Animal and Veterinary Science from the University of Wyoming before completing her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine at St. George’s University in 2016. She finished her clinical training at Oregon State University and began her career in emergency and critical care at a busy hospital in Missoula, Montana. In 2017, she relocated to the Flathead Valley and in 2020 purchased Ashley Creek Animal Clinic, a long-standing small animal general practice. Dr. Lambert has a special professional interest in canine reproduction and surgery. Outside of practice, she enjoys training and competing with her Boxers in AKC
sports, including agility, obedience, and conformation.
With early mentorship from Dr. Paul Schaumberg in Missoula, Dr. Lambert began performing ear crops in 2018 and has since provided this service for all breeds. Thanks to the DPCA’s Grant Program, in 2025 Dr Lambert was thrilled to be able to refine those skills and learn to add that “special touch” to her show crops, after mentorship with the renowned ear crop specialist Dr Anne Midgarden in Ohio.
Dr. Lambert continues to offer ear crop services at Ashley Creek Animal Clinic in Northwest Montana, which will be relocating to a newly renovated 7,000-square-foot facility by winter of 2025.
