Personalized, root-cause healthcare designed to help you feel your best—naturally.
Our mission
Austin Medicine was founded on a straightforward premise: patients deserve better than a system built around volume. When labs come back within range but something is clearly wrong, when symptoms get attributed to stress or age without investigation, the standard model fails. That gap is why this practice exists.
Dr. Lauren Hutson trained at Baylor Scott & White, where she spent years managing complex, critically ill patients as a hospitalist, before founding Austin Medicine. That background shaped how she approaches both primary and functional care. Evaluation begins at the cellular level, integrating genomics, gut function, hormonal status, inflammatory markers, and full patient history into a single clinical picture. Treatment is built around your specific physiology, not a generalized protocol.
In practice, that means continuity. Before each appointment, your provider reviews your history, tracks how interventions are working, and adjusts accordingly. This level of attention matters because chronic conditions, hormonal imbalances, unexplained fatigue, weight resistance, and complex diagnostic questions rarely resolve in a single visit. Sustained care is the standard this practice holds itself to.
If you have been told your results are normal while knowing something is not right, or if you are ready to move beyond managing symptoms to addressing root causes, Austin Medicine was built for you.
