UP Health System – Marquette Welcomes Family Medicine Provider Lauren Lemery, FNP-C, MSN

UP Health System – Marquette is pleased to welcome Lauren Lemery, FNP-C, MSN, to its UP Medical Group | Marquette Family Medicine practice.

Lauren is a graduate of Northern Michigan University, where she received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing.

Family medicine providers, like Lauren, have the education and training to care for the health of an individual and their family. They can diagnose and treat a wide variety of ailments in patients of all ages and also focus on prevention to keep you healthier as you age. This includes lowering your risk of chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease or diabetes by encouraging healthy habits, annual screenings and exams, and identifying your risks.

As an FNP, Lauren is grateful for the opportunity to care for community members who make the Upper Peninsula so special. "I spent some time doing travel nursing around the country before completing my nurse practitioner degree. While there are many incredible places to explore and live, nothing compares to the beauty of the Upper Peninsula and the kindness of the people who live here. I look forward to providing compassionate care and building trusting relationships with my patients."

Outside of work, Lauren enjoys hiking, biking, paddle boarding, reading, camping, cooking and spending time with her family.
