Lauren Allison, MD, FAAP
I am very excited to bring all that I have learned caring for children of all ages in a variety of clinical settings to my practice at Willows Pediatrics. Whether meeting your infant, child or adolescent for a check up or sick visit, my goal is to provide individualized, compassionate care informed by current research and guidelines. I hope to form long-term partnerships with families as I work with parents to keep their children well from birth through adolescence. Being a Connecticut native and growing up in Redding, I especially look forward to connecting to communities that are like home for me.
