Overview:
Dr Kerrie Lek is the Founder of Passion Veterinary Clinic, a Singapore-based veterinary practice that combines conventional veterinary medicine with acupuncture, herbal medicine and other complementary therapies to provide holistic care for animals. Passionate about improving the quality of life of pets, she believes that every treatment plan should address the root cause of illness rather than simply managing symptoms. Her integrative approach has helped many pets recover from chronic conditions while supporting their long-term health and well-being. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are increasingly recognised as complementary therapies alongside conventional veterinary care when applied by qualified veterinarians.
Industry:
Veterinary Medicine | Holistic Pet Care | Veterinary Acupuncture | Animal Healthcare
Professional Experience:
Dr Kerrie is a qualified veterinarian with extensive training in both Western veterinary medicine and Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM). Throughout her career, she has developed expertise in veterinary acupuncture, herbal medicine, pain management, rehabilitation and chronic disease management. By integrating evidence-based conventional treatments with complementary therapies, she provides personalised care tailored to each animal’s condition, lifestyle and overall health, enabling pets to achieve better mobility, comfort and quality of life.
Turning Point:
A defining turning point came when Dr Kerrie witnessed how acupuncture and herbal medicine could significantly improve the recovery and comfort of pets that had limited treatment options through conventional medicine alone. This inspired her to pursue specialised training in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine and establish a practice focused on integrative care. Rather than viewing alternative therapies as replacements for modern medicine, she advocates combining both disciplines to achieve the best possible outcomes for her patients.
What She Does Now:
Today, Dr Kerrie leads Passion Veterinary Clinic, providing holistic veterinary consultations, acupuncture, herbal medicine and integrative treatment plans for companion animals. She continues to educate pet owners on preventive healthcare, rehabilitation and chronic disease management while promoting greater awareness of evidence-based holistic veterinary medicine. Her mission is to help pets live healthier, happier and more comfortable lives through compassionate, personalised care.
