Larkin, Daniel, M.D.

I am honored to serve the Highland Park community as a family medicine physician. My focus is on helping patients achieve their health goals by truly listening and guiding them along their health journey. I believe in a patient-centered approach, emphasizing the importance of collaboration and clear communication to ensure that patients fully understand their care plan.

My practice philosophy centers around the pillars of health: choosing high-nutrient foods, getting restorative sleep, exercising both body and mind, and staying connected with family and friends. By focusing on these foundational principles, I aim to support my patients in building a healthy and fulfilling life.
