Ashley Hall is pleased to announce that Lauren Fogelgren, PA-C will join our community as the Director of Health Services in January. Lauren brings over 15 years of pediatric clinical experience across New York, Georgia, and South Carolina. She has also held key leadership roles in higher education, serving as the Director of Admissions and Assistant Professor in the Division of Physician Assistant Studies at the Medical University of South Carolina, where she was recognized with the 2025 MUSC Teaching Excellence Award.

Lauren’s professional and academic interests center on promoting the mental health, wellness, and nutrition of children and adolescents. She recently completed her doctorate in these areas and looks forward to fostering a culture of well-being within the Ashley Hall community.

As many do, Lauren fell in love with Ashley Hall after her campus visit. At that time, she shared,“The energy on campus and among the staff was evident in every interaction I had and observed. I went into the interview excited about the opportunity, and I left even more enthusiastic. I truly appreciated the collaborative spirit across roles and the school’s forward-looking vision. It would be an honor to come to work each day surrounded by such dedicated staff and inspiring students.” Since then, her excitement has grown, as has the joyful anticipation of the team she will lead in the Health Center.
