About Lauren Waters, PA-C
Lauren Waters, PA-C earned her Bachelor of Science in Public Health and Psychology from Worcester State University in Worcester, MA. She continued her medical education and obtained her Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies from Bryant University in Smithfield, RI.
As a Physician Assistant specializing in neurosurgery, Lauren is committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care to patients facing some of the most complex and life-changing diagnoses. Her philosophy of care centers on clear communication, patient education, and emotional support — ensuring every patient feels heard, understood, and involved in their treatment journey.
Lauren was drawn to her career through her passion for hands-on clinical work and critical thinking in complex care environments. During her surgical and critical care rotations, she was drawn to neurosurgery because of the field’s complexity, collaborative nature, and the profound impact it can have on patients and families. She finds it deeply rewarding to support individuals through both critical interventions and long-term recovery.
She believes that combining clinical precision with empathy is essential to achieving the best outcomes — especially in a specialty where patients are often navigating high-stakes, life-changing diagnoses.
Outside of work, Lauren is passionate about staying active and giving back. She ran the Boston Marathon in memory of her late uncle, a firefighter who passed away from a glioblastoma, raising funds for the Boston Fire Department Relief Fund. She also enjoys outdoor activities like hiking and spending time near the water, as well as participating in community health initiatives.
A strong believer in lifelong learning and cultural exchange, she has taken part in medical travel programs in Greece and Belize.

Why aren’t there any ratings?
We do not have a rating for this provider for one of the following reasons:- Provider was newly added to our survey process and has not yet received the minimum number (30) of survey returns. Check back soon for results!
- If this provider’s biography page does not specify practicing at Southcoast Physicians Group or a Southcoast hospital site (Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital), he/she is affiliated with Southcoast Health Network but not employed by Southcoast Physicians Group. Our affiliates are not included in our survey process.
- If this provider’s biography page specifies practicing at Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital, without reference to an outpatient practice, he/she delivers care in the inpatient hospital setting only; inpatient surveys do not include questions about individual providers.
Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings. Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.
Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.
Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.
How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office. The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
