My name is Kristann and I am a medical doctor (MD) board-certified with the American Academy of Family Medicine and the American Board of Integrative Medicine. I am also a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner as well as a registered dietician (RD) and a physician acupuncturist.  I did my undergraduate studies at Simmons College, where I earned a bachelor’s degree in nutrition science. After graduating, I completed a dietetic internship and worked as a registered dietician with many community-based nutrition programs. I then completed two Maternal and Child Health Fellowships one in Adolescent Nutrition and the other in Nutrition in Children with Developmental Disabilities.   
 
I went on to receive my medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, and completed my family medicine residency at Lehigh Valley Health Network. During this time, I began studying other forms of healing, such as acupuncture, medical group education, homeopathy, herbal medicine and functional medicine. My research focus during residency was integrating these modalities into a primary care setting for which I was given the Family Medicine Resident Award for Scholarship.  After completing my residency, I worked as an integrative family doctor in Pennsylvania and New Jersey for many years, where I provided primary care and nutrition services for families as well as educational programs for the community.  I established my own practice, Red Hill Medical+Wellness, in 2015.
