Certified Family Nurse Practitioner
Karen has been a Board Certified Nurse Practitioner since 2007, and has significant experience in emergency and hospital medicine. While addressing emergent or acute problems is important and necessary, it has piqued her interest in how to identify and address the root causes of illness. She has always been fascinated with the relationship of lifestyle and a person’s health, and is in the process of obtaining her Functional Medicine certification through the Institute for Functional Medicine. Her priority is to enhance heart and metabolic health through personalized plans.

John 10:10
Functional Medicine (FM) is a science based, personalized, holistic healthcare approach that focuses on identifying and treating the root cause of illness. Through the lens of FM, our goal is to help you get well and stay well through treating the root cause of your symptoms. Only treating symptoms of disease will rarely lead to sustainable wellness, and contributes to the revolving door of disease and episodic dysfunction. Instead of waiting for things to become “bad enough” to diagnose and treat, we work with you to take proactive, targeted action now.
Our goal for you is health, not management of disease.

For a list of pediatric services visit:
AC&W Pediatrics
We review your history and current concerns and I take time to fully understand your story, your health concerns, and your personal goals.
I typically recommend a full lab panel, which can be drawn at this appointment (if you are fasting and seen in person), scheduled another time in my office, or sent to a Labcorp near you
We will review metabolic health, hormone balance, gut health, nutrition, exercise/ movement, sleep, stress response, and detoxification and formulate a plan that works for you.
Your plan will include lifestyle interventions, a food plan, nutritional supplements, and in some cases, prescription medications (including compounded semaglutide therapy and bioidentical hormone replacement, as indicated and appropriate).
We will check your body composition, review your progress, and refine and support as needed. At each visit, we will review exercise, nutrition, sleep, stress, gut health, hormone balance, and detoxification- as these are essential to long term metabolic health and vitality!
We will check body composition at each visit (in office or with your own home scale) and basic labs and MSQ (symptom score) every 3-6 mos.
