Philosophy of care
I aim to treat patients with compassion and establish a care plan with joint decision-making.
Why Lauren went into Medicine
My father was paralyzed, which broadened my understanding of medicine. My mother was a nurse, and I watched her care for others with compassion and understanding.
Favorite advice to give patients
I like to ask patients where they see their health in five years, and what can we do together to make sure you are healthy and happy?
Let’s work together on preventative measures and improve the current medical issues to achieve this goal.
