Lauren B. Burns

Overview

Inspired by her mother, a nurse, and her father, an emergency medical technician, she began volunteering in healthcare at 16 and found her calling in medicine. Outside of work, Dr. Burns enjoys traveling with her husband, crocheting and relaxing on her porch surrounded by wildlife and her cats.".
