Dr Laura Buchanan
Dr. Laura Buchanan is a double board-certified physician in family and obesity medicine with a passion for using lifestyle modification as the first-line standard of care. She is also a certified metabolic health practitioner (MHP), and a Board and founding member of the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners.
She completed her family medicine residency at Wake Forest in 2022 and was a valedictorian of her class at the University of Florida College of Medicine.
The mission that drives her is to help people age successfully. That passion was initially derived from a love of sports but has since evolved and expanded to include a passion for healthy living generally, including the importance of nutrition, exercise, mental wellness and an optimal use of the medical system. She sees her role as a doctor being two-fold: promoting prevention and practicing medicine. She is currently accepting patients across the United States via Telemedicine with Dr. Tro Kalayjian.
