“I had to find a psychiatrist to take over my care ASAP since my current psychiatrist cannot see pregnant people and I just found out I’m expecting. I was able to be seen within 24 hours and Lauren was prompt with the new patient paperwork and spent time getting to know me and my background. She was very kind and willing to jump in to being my provider! Wonderful experience, and fun (but professional/knowledgeable) energy, too. I’m glad I found her to care for me during my pregnancy.”
