Dr. Christina is a wellness, guiding light. During a particularly dark time when my dad was in his last few months of life, my physician at the time, suddenly passed away. Due to the stress of caring for my dad, I knew I needed to get a new doctor quickly. As I asked for references from medical staff at the hospital, her name quickly surfaced repeatedly. Thus, I followed those suggestions and became one of Dr. Christian’s patients. From the first time we met, I could see a glimmer of light that I could be healthier in every way. She genuinely cared about my physical and emotional well being. I not only found a medical guiding light, but someone who understood the impact acute emotional stress can have on overall health. This light gave me motivation, knowledge, and inspiration to make healthier nutritional choices and seek counseling to aid in reducing the emotional stress I was experiencing. Light allows us to see. Dr. Christina’s infectious smile and ability to impart medical information in an easy to understand way, helped me to visualize a healthier me. Being able to visualize changes impacted my ability to actualize health improvements. My husband and I have continued to be patients of Dr. Christina although we now live in Austin. When friends ask why we are making that choice, we think of light and a brighter future with Dr. Christina. Thank you Dr. Christina for a decade of support, care, and friendship! You are our greatest wellness advocate.
