About me
Lauren Drake, MD, practices family medicine at MedStar Family Health Center at MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center. She enjoys caring for patients of all ages and has a special interest in adolescents, community health, dermatology, geriatrics, LGBTQ health, mental health, pediatrics, and women’s health.
Dr. Drake’s philosophy of care focuses on the patient as an individual. No two people are exactly alike and their healthcare shouldn’t be either. She works with each patient to help them create a unique plan of care that fits both their lifestyle and their needs. She wants her patients to leave her office with the knowledge of their medical problems and the steps they can take to improve their overall health.
Outside of work Dr. Drake enjoys spending time with her family, trying out new recipes, and exploring the city of Baltimore.
