Dr. Drew Christensen is on a mission to bring the ‘heart’ back into medicine. Several years ago Dr. Christensen found himself stressed out, gaining weight, and with declining health. He decided to make the switch from family medicine to Functional Medicine and has since used a root-cause approach to healing his own health and many others.

Heart Focused Medicine with Dr. Drew Christensen

After becoming a certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, opening Living Health MD and a trip to Eygpt that changed his understanding of the heart, Dr. Christensen became passionate about spending quality time with his patients to learn about their unique health issues and find their root causes. Through personalized care, lab testing, lifestyle interventions, and group coaching, Dr. Christensen is delighted to help patients turn things around and create lasting health.

Dr. Christensen believes that when it comes to matters of the heart, every factor needs to be evaluated. Our love, relationships, burdens, and flow of our hearts can have a large impact on the health of our hearts, which is why Dr. Christensen believes that true health starts from the heart.
