LARA LAHR, CNM, MSN STAFF MIDWIFE

Hi! I am Lara. I am a certified nurse-midwife, health coach, exercise instructor, whole foods and plant based solutions expert. I moved to Fort Wayne in 2019 from North Philadelphia where I served the community for over 15 years. My heart to serve underserved populations is what led me to learn Spanish and return to school for my Masters in Midwifery. I am passionate about educating and supporting people in a holistic way to meet their goals.

Throughout my career, I have worked in hospital settings, home health, a Christian bilingual Federally Qualified Health Center (where I continue to serve as a board member) and currently in a private practice with a freestanding birth center. A highlight of my career has been educating people to be the healthiest version of themselves. I have served countless families as a nurse, doula, personal trainer, health coach and midwife.

On a personal note, I love spending time with my husband and three daughters anywhere near water! I birthed my daughters in a hospital, birth center and home. After experiencing my own pregnancies and childbirths with a midwife, I knew that this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
