Info

Lisa did her residency in family medicine at Fairfield Medical Center in Lancaster, Ohio. She thought she wanted to be an OB/GYN, and so she became a member of the Woman's Health Club and even the Treasurer. In her third year of medical school, she had a little boy. After taking a year off from medical school to be a stay-at-home mom, she decided to be a family physician instead of an OB/GYN.

Dr. Karres enjoys treating everyone in the family, from great-grandmothers to newborn babies. She is a member of the AOA, AMA, and AAFP.

Her pastimes are spending time with family, gardening, exercising and watching movies.
