Professional Statement

Dr. McLaughlin brings extensive experience in providing full-spectrum care to patients of all ages, with over a decade of post-training expertise. He has particularly focused on acute hospital-based medicine, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. His approach to inpatient care is holistic, emphasizing collaboration with patients and their families to deliver optimal, evidence-based care tailored to each individual. This blend of conversation and counseling, along with research and reflection, transforms periods of acute stress and illness into opportunities for recovery and growth.

Get To Know Me

Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
I have a strong foundation in evidence-based medicine and an understanding of the importance of good communication.

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
My patients can expect to be listened to, I expect they are involved parties in their care.

How do you spend your valuable personal time when you’re not caring for patients?
When not caring for patients and their families, I spend time with my own family. Depending on the season, cycling, swimming, snowboarding and dancing.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
Family medicine was always my intention, hospital medicine chose me as needs arose in my community.
