About Dr Christie Kunde, PharmD
Dr. Christie Kunde is dedicated to helping her patients achieve better health through the use of precision medicine. In her role as a certified pharmacogenomics pharmacist, she helps patients make well-informed medication decisions based on their individual DNA and lifestyle. Christie works with patients who are fed up with the trial-and-error approach to medicine and wish to reduce the number of medications they take and the side effects they experience.
After her own personal health experience, Christie was motivated to launch a business that helps people with their health. She was diagnosed with chronic migraine in 2013. Years were spent trying different medications, only for them to either not work or have side effects. She had to learn to advocate for herself as a patient before she was able to get her chronic migraine under control.
Christie earned her pharmacy degree from Belmont University in 2015. Her expertise includes managed care pharmacy, Medicare, prior authorizations, appeals, claims, and formulary. She currently lives in Phoenix, Arizona with her husband and two fur babies. Christie loves to be outdoors and in nature, especially hiking and kayaking.
