Meet Dr. Kris Larson

I embarked on a distinctive path toward my medical profession, initiated my own health challenges in my early twenties—persistent, perplexing symptoms that defied the conventional solutions. After years of resilience, I embraced alternative medicine, sparking a transformative journey that has become an integral part of my life story.

Driven by a profound passion for facilitating healing, I employ a holistic approach, leveraging nutrition, supplements, acupuncture, and a positive mindset. I firmly believes in the power of educating and empowering my patients to embrace a clean, non-toxic lifestyle coupled with wholesome nutrition as the fundamental pillars of optimal health and graceful aging.

In personalized one-on-one sessions, I collaborate with her patients to address a spectrum of health concerns. My passion is illuminated by the mission to unveil the benefits of natural healing remedies, facilitating my patients in feeling better, enhancing their well-being, and seamlessly integrating these methods into their daily lives.

Originally from North Dakota, I earned my Bachelor's in Kinesiology from the University of North Dakota. Relocating to San Diego in 2013, I cultivated a passion for Natural and Alternative Medicine. Commencing training to become a Doctor of Eastern Medicine in 2018, I reached a milestone with my graduation from Pacific College of Health and Science in 2021, attaining a Masters in Traditional Oriental Medicine and a Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. Currently, I am actively pursuing a postgraduate degree in Functional Medicine.

Meet Sara Leckman

Sara is a Registered Nurse and Functional Medicine Practitioner. 

Sara holds over 10 years of experience in the medical field. In her early nursing career Sara served as a Nurse Clinician at a Community Health Clinic in Seattle, where she practiced chronic disease management and led diabetes education programs. Early on in her career, Sara recognized that the conventional-medicine model fails to identify and treat the root cause of disease, and often leaves patients desperate for more help. In search of something greater & more effective, Sara discovered the power of Naturopathic & Functional Medicine. Since then, Sara has spent the last 4 years passionately continuing ongoing education and practicing as a Functional Medicine Clinician at one of San Diego's largest Functional Medicine clinics. 

As a Board Certified Nurse Coach, Sara views her patients as active participants in their care, as they are supported in creating lasting-lifestyle change. She utilizes functional medicine lab testing to help patients understand their unique physiology and identify underlying imbalances that are driving their symptoms and disease. Sara’s mission is to help educate and empower individuals to take back control of their own health and wellbeing. Sara believes the human body is naturally intelligent and fully capable of healing, given the right environment. What Sara loves most about her role as a functional medicine practitioner, is seeing patients get off numerous prescription medications while they continue to reverse disease and live more fulfilling lives.
