Welcome to downtown Greenville's first combined functional medicine and aesthetics practice!

Dr. Katherine works on restoring balance in the body by working on environmental inputs, nutrition, hormone balance, inflammation, digestion and absorption, detoxification, energy metabolism, and emotional and cognitive wellness. Dr. Shawn offers a multitude of advanced aesthetic procedures, and a full array of plastic surgery procedures to make you look as good as you feel. We work together to help return you to your personal best.

YOUR Total body health
IS our top PRIORITY

Have you spent years battling a chronic disease or vague, unexplained symptoms? Maybe you’re tired of not getting any answers, and you’re looking for relief. 

By looking deep into the body’s complex network of systems, Dr. Katherine can identify patterns of dysfunction and return you to your personal best. She has seen many patients in the ER with serious symptoms not explained by conventional testing or diagnostic studies.

Many patients may have felt unwell for years but have never been offered treatment because there was no diagnosis, or even worse, dismissed after being told it was psychosomatic or just part of the normal aging process. Dr. Katherine uses advanced diagnostic testing to identify the imbalances that may be at the root of your symptoms.

ELEVATE YOUR HEALTH
IV NUTRIENT THERAPY

IV Nutrient Therapy is a great way to introduce vitamins and other therapeutic agents directly into the blood stream to:
• Correct Deficiencies
• Enhance Immunity
• Increase Energy
• Achieve + Maintain Optimal Health

Why Choose IV Nutrient Therapy?

It’s estimated that only 20-40% of vitamins and minerals taken orally get absorbed. By delivering nutrients directly into the blood stream, you’ll feel the effects immediately and distribution to your cells is quicker and more thorough.
Plus, you’ll get to hang out in our cozy IV Lounge!
