Lauren Iacono, DO, Pediatric Endocrinologist

Taking care of my pediatric patients and their families is my top priority. As a pediatric endocrinologist, it's rewarding not only to see patients taking care of their diabetes but also to hear about their most recent academic achievements, sporting events they participated in, or something new they learned.

I want my patients and their families to know that my approach to care is a team effort and that working together to achieve optimal health is key. I love seeing my patients succeed and create the healthiest lives for themselves.

I majored in biology at Fairleigh Dickinson University, earned my Master of Public Health at CUNY School of Public Health in Harlem, and my osteopathic degree from the New York Institute of Technology – College of Osteopathic Medicine. My focus areas include pediatric obesity, diabetes, and health disparities, specifically among Hispanic and Latino youth, as well as pediatric food security and food access.
