Bio & Overview

As an internal medicine provider, Lindsay C. Carter, MD, MBA, specializes in providing primary care to patients 18 years old and up.

She has a special interest in women’s health, complex chronic diseases, and wellness and prevention.

Dr. Carter, who always dreamed of becoming a doctor, is passionate about helping people and enjoys connecting with her patients.

“I am collaborative, approachable, kind, and a good listener,” Dr. Carter says. “I am also meticulous, with attention to all details.”

A native of the Chicago suburbs, Dr. Carter earned her bachelor’s degree from Princeton University, where she studied health policy, completed her pre-med requirements, and ran varsity track – primarily the 800-meter race.

She then went to Harvard Medical School and Harvard Business School, where she earned a joint MD/MBA degree. This allowed her to pursue interests in both clinical practice and health care systems. After graduating from Harvard, Dr. Carter completed her residency in internal medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, where she also served as chief resident.

From 2016 to 2022, she was an attending primary care physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital, with an academic appointment as an instructor at Harvard Medical School. She also served as an attending physician on Brigham and Women’s Inpatient Integrated Teaching Unit, and was assistant program director for the hospital’s Internal Medicine Residency Program.

Committed to innovation in healthcare, Dr. Carter has served in multiple clinical leadership roles. As founding medical director of the Cancer Diagnostic Service at Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women’s Cancer Center, she established a clinic for patients presenting with signs or symptoms of cancer but no definitive diagnosis.

Most recently, she has worked for Devoted Health, where she established and launched several innovative clinical programs for members and developed health education content.

Outside of work, Dr. Carter enjoys spending time with her husband and three children. Dr. Carter loves being active, especially running, swimming, biking, and hiking.

Dr. Carter was spot on with suggesting some remedies for a couple of my health concerns, for example my diet and GI issues and switching my anti depressant meds to another one (Thank you Dr Carter I think it is working). However, the reason I was able to get an appointment at last minute was because I had been dizzy prior to the appointment and had irritation in my right eye which was not healed by warm compress, etc. At the time of the appointment my dizziness had disappeared but she focused for quite some time on my use and need of anti depressants. Apparently she got distracted by my GI problems and need for anti depressants and did not read through my chart for the reason I was coming in (eye irritation). She said we were out of time and I said "Wait, I also came here for some eye meds", so she needed to have read through my chart info more thoroughly. Otherwise as I said she was spot on with the new anti depressant and the antibiotic creme for my eye.

Dr. Carter saw me as my regular PCP was not available to assess my injuries from a fall. She was professional, friendly, empathetic to my falling and we discussed the tests/scans/films needed to further evaluate any injuries. I enjoyed my interaction with her.
