Lauren Baras, MD

I want my patients to describe me at compassionate, caring and competent. I enjoy listening to people and learning about their lives. I was inspired to be a healthcare provider by my father who practiced occupational medicine and often made free house calls for friends and their families. I wanted to help people and provide compassionate care.

I treat pediatric patients with ADHD, anxiety, depression, autism, trauma, and general behavioral challenges. I provide evaluations, therapy, medication management, and family support, using evidence-based treatments to foster well-being in young patients. My parents worked in health care so I developed a passion for helping others and a fascination with the workings of the mind and body early on. I work to make a difference in children's and their families' lives, guiding them through challenges and celebrating growth.
