ABOUT
"The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet and in the cause and prevention of disease"
- Thomas Edison
Our Philosophy
We started our practice for all the reasons we couldn’t stand going to the doctor- long wait times, impossible robot phone trees, being passed around from provider to provider, unclear billing, difficulty in rescheduling, inflexible appointment offerings and endless forms. Medicine just didn’t work for us as patients.
It also didn’t work for us as health care providers. We had multiple third parties pushing their rules on our patients and us- from insurance companies to mail order pharmacies telling us what we could and couldn’t do, to what medication they would allow for our patients and to how much we were allowed to be paid for our work. We felt stuck in a system that we knew was providing inadequate and rushed health care. It was cost-inefficient and bloated- paying everyone between the doctor and the patient by over charging the patients and under paying the doctors.
We decided we could accept this fate where we had no control over how we practiced or how much time we had with our patients, or we could “Be the change you wish to see in the world”. Clearly, we chose the latter path and never been happier.
It is so refreshing to be able to tell patients exactly what their healthcare with us will cost and be transparent about those costs. There are no hidden fees or surprise billing. We created a practice that can take care of 80-90% of your healthcare needs for less than $1000 a year. In our practice, you are a shared decision maker with us. We are here to guide you and give recommendations on your health and well-being but ultimately, you get to choose what works for you, time wise and cost wise. Being affordable doesn’t mean we’re cheap. It’s quite the opposite. We are possibly the best value you can add to take care of yourself for today and invest in yourself for the future.
With our membership model, we like to keep costs reasonable and deliver value to the patient in the form of upfront cost control and price transparency. We always found it ridiculous that no doctor’s office was able to tell us the price of a visit or service up front. It would be like going to the grocery store and picking out your food and then getting home and getting a bill three months later for an amount negotiated by your third-party payer (i.e. insurance) that you were then stuck with to pay. So, if the grocery insurer decided milk was now $12 and eggs were no longer covered, that’s what you would get, without recourse. That would seem so crazy, but that is exactly what happens in the ‘real’ healthcare world, and people keep accepting it. It's time to choose a better way.
Another thing we love about our practice is that we aren’t restricted to traditional western medicine that is reimbursable by insurance companies. We embrace the concepts of whole health, lifestyle living, alternative care models like chiropractic, acupuncture, dietary improvement, functional medicine, herbal/supplemental medicine and psychedelic medicine wherever appropriate. Western medicine is one part of a larger offering and we wanted to be able to incorporate wellness and other preventive medicine modalities in our practice.
We would love to invite you to join us…. For better care, transparent care, consistent care, whole body/total health care. If you’re still undecided if our practice is right for you, reach out to us at the office- 847-881-6858 – you won’t find any annoying phone trees or elevator hold music. You’ll always reach one of us and we can help answer your questions.

Lauren Towle MD
Functional Medicine
For more than a decade in emergency medicine, I have treated the full spectrum of human illness—yet I have always been fascinated by the why behind each patient’s story. My career has been driven by a belief that when we understand and support the body’s intricate physiology, healing often follows.
That conviction became personal in 2020, when I developed a severe post‑viral syndrome after COVID‑19. Months of debilitating brain fog, fatigue, and recurrent infections left me unable to be fully present—both at work and with my family. Standard evaluations showed “nothing wrong,” but I knew my body was signaling otherwise. A diagnosis of chronic Epstein–Barr virus explained the symptoms—but offered no real solution.
Determined to recover, I immersed myself in the research on immune dysregulation and post‑viral illness. Partnering with my colleague Dr. Green, I applied a functional‑medicine lens—optimizing nutrition, restoring microbiome balance, supporting mitochondrial function, and carefully retraining my immune system. The result was a full return to health and a renewed appreciation for medicine that looks upstream, listens deeply, and treats each person as a complex, interconnected system.
At MedLogic Functional Medicine, Dr. Green and I bring that same curiosity, empathy, and evidence‑based rigor to every patient encounter. Whether you are struggling with digestive issues, skin problems, weight loss plateaus, mood swings, "mystery symptoms", poor sleep, hormonal imbalance, or seeking peak performance, my goal is to uncover root causes and design personalized plans that empower your body’s own capacity to heal. I am honored to walk alongside you on that journey.
