Dr. Lauren Towle, MD
Board‑Certified Emergency Physician & Functional Medicine Practitioner
For more than a decade in emergency medicine, I have treated the full spectrum of human illness—yet I have always been fascinated by the why behind each patient’s story. My career has been driven by a belief that when we understand and support the body’s intricate physiology, healing often follows.
That conviction became personal in 2020, when I developed a severe post‑viral syndrome after COVID‑19. Months of debilitating brain fog, fatigue, and recurrent infections left me unable to be fully present—both at work and with my family. Standard evaluations showed “nothing wrong,” but I knew my body was signaling otherwise. A diagnosis of chronic Epstein–Barr virus explained the symptoms—but offered no real solution.
Determined to recover, I immersed myself in the research on immune dysregulation and post‑viral illness. Partnering with my colleague Dr. Green, I applied a functional‑medicine lens—optimizing nutrition, restoring microbiome balance, supporting mitochondrial function, and carefully retraining my immune system. The result was a full return to health and a renewed appreciation for medicine that looks upstream, listens deeply, and treats each person as a complex, interconnected system.
At MedLogic Functional Medicine, Dr. Green and I bring that same curiosity, empathy, and evidence‑based rigor to every patient encounter. Whether you are struggling with digestive issues, skin problems, weight loss plateaus, mood swings, "mystery symptoms", poor sleep, hormonal imbalance, or seeking peak performance, my goal is to uncover root causes and design personalized plans that empower your body’s own capacity to heal. I am honored to walk alongside you on that journey.
