Christie MD

Functional and Aesthetic Medicine

Hello! From Dr. Christie

Welcome!

Functional Medicine is a holistic, patient-centered approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of diseases and symptoms.
Unlike traditional medicine, which often treats symptoms alone, functional medicine integrates various therapies and emphasizes a comprehensive understanding of each patient’s unique genetic, biochemical, and lifestyle factors.

A key component of functional medicine is lifestyle modification including diet,
exercise, sleep, and stress management as essential for restoring health.
Personalized nutrition plans help address specific health needs, including food
sensitivities, nutrient deficiencies, and overall nourishment. Through extensive
testing and analysis, we identify issues such as gut dysfunction, nutrient needs,
hormonal imbalances, or chronic inflammation. By targeting these underlying
problems, Functional Medicine aims to not only alleviate symptoms but also
prevent their recurrence, leading to long-term health improvements.

About Dr. Christie

For me, functional medicine is the missing puzzle piece in my nearly 20 years of being a physician. Sometimes this approach can resolve issues with the body, sometimes I use this in conjunction with traditional healthcare to improve various medical issues and symptoms, ideally backing off prescription medications over time when appropriate. I am excited to have my patients getting and feeling better over time. This includes having more energy, mental clarity, improvement or resolution of symptoms and feeling like they have their lives back! If you’re interested in learning more, please consider a complimentary discovery call where you and I can briefly discuss your issues and health care goals. I’ll briefly discuss my approach and we can decide if we’re a good fit for your healing journey. Thank you for your interest and I look forward to working together!

About Dr. Christie

Dr. Heather Christie is a board-certified Family Medicine physician and Founder of Christie MD Functional and Aesthetic Medicine.

She is passionate about partnering with her patients to identify the root causes of disease in order to restore and maintain optimal health. She practices functional medicine, which is based on the truth that our body systems function as an interrelated whole as well as the understanding that we have a natural ability to heal when provided with the correct ingredients. Her holistic approach integrates traditional testing and medications with advanced testing and proven natural treatments. Natural approaches to healing include nutritional supplements, food plans, hormonal support, physical activity, and stress reduction techniques. She may recommend prescription medications if indicated, although prefers to reduce patients’ reliance on prescriptions and to have patients become healthy enough to discontinue prescription meds when medically appropriate.

Her goal is to enable patients take control of their own health through education about their disease processes and by detailed evaluation to uncover the root causes of underlying imbalances. She will partner with you to develop a personalized health plan, created for you and your individual needs, to restore and maintain yourhealth. She is committed to helping patients make sustainable changes in your lifestyles that will produce positive, life-changing outcomes and facilitate achieving your health goals.
