About
I'm Dr Lauren Prictor
A General Practitioner and Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician. 🌟 I'm all about Lifestyle Medicine where we focus on self-care and use rock-solid, science-backed strategies to tackle and prevent chronic diseases. ​The wellness space has been an area where credible information can either be difficult and costly to access or buried by those in the wellness space who promote anecdotal evidence and confirmation bias. My goal is to give you the most up to date science, tips and tricks on living a happy, healthy and long life!
My journey began at James Cook University, where I completed my medical degree back in 2012. I finished my General Practice training and backed it up with earning my international board certification as a Lifestyle Medicine Physician. I kept the ball rolling with a Fellowship through the Australasian Society of Lifestyle Medicine, and a Master's in Lifestyle Medicine from Southern Cross University.
​When I'm not at work, you'll find me running, teaching yoga, diving into books, and exploring new destinations. Oh, and I can't forget about Leroy Brown, my trusty Labradoodle sidekick; we're an unstoppable duo! ​
