I view my patients as family, and my goal for your health is to focus on you as a “whole” – mind, body and spirit. I strive to focus on prevention and wellness. I emphasize the importance of diet and lifestyle choices, and how they influence our health and our ability to impact disease prevention. I also work diligently to diagnose and manage both acute and chronic conditions. As an MDVIP‐affiliated physician, I can take the time and energy necessary to develop a personalized care plan to maximize health outcomes for each patient I serve. My goal is to empower you and lead you to be the happiest and healthiest version of yourself.

Her clear communication, knowledge, compassion and warmth makes her an… See more
I’m 68 years old. In my lifetime, I have had 6 primary care physicians. Five of them were “ old school doctors” who I felt were lacking “ state of the art” medical knowledge.

I am so happy, relieved, and actually… See more

Dr Erin Lavin is always there for me. On a Friday night I had fallen and by Saturday morning I thought I may have broken my wrist. I texted her and immediately she responded. She met me in her office, gave me an X-ray procedure form and within 30min I was on my way home!!! Fortunately it was not broken. She also responds immediately if I need her. She is just the BEST! I can’t thank… See more
