About Lara Love Doyle, MPAS, PA-C, CAQ-Peds

I am a board-certified physician assistant with more than 27 years of experience caring for children, adolescents, and young adults. I completed the University of Colorado School of Medicine Child Health Associate/Physician Assistant Program in 1999 and earned my Master’s Degree in Physician Assistant Studies from the University of Nebraska School of Medicine in 2001.

After 24 years in pediatric primary care, I joined Boulder Creek Psychiatry in 2023, dedicating my practice to child and adolescent psychiatry. My clinical experience includes ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), anxiety, depression, OCD, panic disorder, tic disorders, challenging behaviors, sensory differences, and learning differences. I have a particular interest in working with twice-exceptional (2e) and highly sensitive children and adolescents.

My background in pediatrics allows me to approach psychiatric care with an understanding of the whole child, including developmental, medical, family, educational, and social factors. I value collaborative, individualized care and enjoy partnering with young people and their families to build confidence, develop skills, and help each child thrive.

I hold the Certificate of Added Qualifications in Pediatrics (CAQ-Peds) through NCCPA and maintain current physician assistant certification, Colorado licensure, and PALS certification. I regularly participate in continuing medical education to remain current with evolving standards of care.

Originally from the East Coast, I have called Boulder home for many years, where my husband and I raised our four children. Outside of work, I enjoy musical theater, live music, time with family, and exploring Boulder’s beautiful open spaces.
