About

Laura Munoz Beringer, MD MPH, holds triple board certification from the American Board of Internal Medicine in both Internal Medicine and Geriatrics, and from the American Board of Obesity Medicine as a Diplomat. She earned her medical degree at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. She also holds a Master's degree in Epidemiology and Public Health.

Her residency training took place at Jackson Memorial Hospital and the Miami VA, covering Internal Medicine and Geriatrics. Before medical school, Dr. Beringer built extensive experience in surgery, transplant surgery, organ retrieval, transplant coordination, and medical education. She later joined Martin Memorial outpatient clinics before establishing Beringer Medical Group in Stuart. She holds a firm conviction that primary care medicine is the foundation upon which all medicine stands. Her approach to geriatrics reflects that belief: she treats each patient as a complex individual with social, psychological, and functional needs, not simply a list of diagnoses. She and her husband Alex live in Palm City with their four children.
