What Sets Us Apart
Icon - Caduceus

Physician-Led Root-Cause Care

We combine the power to prescribe with the precision of functional medicine, treating everything from hormone and thyroid issues to autoimmunity and gut health.

Icon - Analytics

Personalized 
& Data-Driven

No generic protocols. We use advanced labs and your story to create a step-by-step plan designed for your physiology, goals, and lifestyle. It's time for actual data.

Icon - Team

A Collaborative, All-Female Team

From your first visit to ongoing follow-ups, you’ll be supported by a coordinated team, led by a physician and backed by a skilled nutritionist, clinician, and care coordinator.

Women’s Hormones

Reclaim hormone balance and feel like yourself again. Whether you’re facing perimenopause, menopause, PCOS, endometriosis, or are in your reproductive years, we personalize care to restore energy, mood, metabolism, and sexual health. With bioidentical HRT, targeted supplements, and lifestyle strategies, we create a plan tailored to you.

Gut Health

Your gut is connected to everything—hormones, immunity, and even mood. If you’re struggling with bloating, food sensitivities, IBS, IBD, or autoimmune issues, your gut microbiome plays a role. We start by removing infections like SIBO, dysbiosis, candida, parasites, and H. pylori, then replace and rebuild for long-term balance.

Hypothyroidism

No more being told “your labs are normal” when you know something’s off. We look at thyroid function in depth (not just TSH) to uncover Hashimoto’s or other imbalances. Our approach combines medications (T4, T3, or both), supplements, and lifestyle support to improve energy, metabolism, and mental clarity.

Autoimmune Disease

Finally, real solutions for autoimmune disease and elevated antibodies. Too often, patients are told they just “have to live with it” or are offered only immunosuppressants. We take a root-cause approach to reduce flares, calm inflammation, and restore immune balance by repairing gut permeability, addressing environmental triggers, and supporting genetics.

Metabolic Health

Break free from stubborn weight gain and slow metabolism. We focus on sustainable body recomposition, blood sugar control, and cardiovascular health by prioritizing muscle, mitochondria, and insulin sensitivity. When appropriate, we also use microdosed GLP-1 therapy to accelerate results safely and effectively.

Kristina, 52

When I started with Dr. Maren’s team, weight loss wasn’t even on my radar, I just wanted to feel better. I was dealing with years of digestive issues, joint pain, hypothyroidism, menopause symptoms, and feeling exhausted. In a year, I’ve lost over 50 pounds, gained muscle I never thought possible in my 50s, eliminated heartburn and joint pain, and have more energy than I’ve had in decades. I can run around with my grandkids, stay active with my husband, and truly feel good in my body again. I'm thrilled with the whole team.

Sheryl, 44

I have never experienced this level of in-depth consultation and support in my life. I genuinely looked forward to my sessions with Dr. Maren and her team. Their ability to pinpoint causes of my concerns, identify options for remediation, and help me feel results gave me confidence I had made the right decision. Breakthroughs were continual, every tweak brought improvement. Probably the biggest was hormone balance, which supported so many changes: better sleep, less brain fog, less irritability, and weight loss.

Krista, 31

This healthcare should be the standard for all. Everything was tailored, honest, and realistic, meeting me exactly where I was as a student and mother of four. After 10 years of knowing something was wrong and getting no answers, including a previously undiagnosed case of Hashimoto’s, I finally felt validated. It restored my confidence in knowing my body well and released the shame I had been carrying for years. I no longer feel ‘crazy’ ... I feel heard, supported, and empowered. I am so thankful to have found the care I had been searching for.

Sheelah, 47

I came to Dr. Maren after struggling with acid reflux for over two years, and I not only resolved it but also improved my gut health and optimized my hormones. It was more than I ever expected. Healing my reflux removed the fear around eating and allowed me to fuel my workouts again. Tweaking my diet and training helped me start successful body recomposition, gaining muscle and learning that carbs are essential for my goals. I now feel stronger, more confident, and fully capable of maintaining these results long-term.

Melissa, 35

Dr. Maren and her team are truly wonderful. I’ve worked with them for three years and couldn’t be more pleased. She creates plans tailored to your needs and preferences, values your beliefs, and truly listens. She’s helped me with gut health, infertility, and Hashimoto’s, and gave me such peace during pregnancy knowing my levels were monitored closely. The team is thorough, quick to respond, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. I even had my mom see her, and she was just as impressed. They truly care about their patients.

Claire, 34

After going through IVF and having a baby, I wanted to feel like myself again. Within four months of working with Dr. Maren’s team, I’ve lost 30 pounds, regained my energy, and truly feel like me again. I’m so grateful they looked deeper into the root causes of my postpartum symptoms instead of offering surface fixes. I finally feel like my health is back on track and my vitality has returned. The team’s dedication and thoughtful approach have made all the difference in my recovery and well-being. They are the real deal.

Amye, 44

Working with Dr. Maren and her team has been truly transformative. They took the time to listen and connect the dots in my growing list of symptoms and created a personalized, comprehensive plan for my health. I felt like my concerns were finally being taken seriously. In the middle of perimenopause, I finally felt clarity, balance, and hope I hadn’t found elsewhere. Plus, I can sleep again! About 10 months in, it shifted from feeling like a big uphill climb to simply maintaining my health. I’m deeply grateful for the care and dedication they provide.

Lauren, 32

Working with Dr. Maren and her team has been the best decision for my health. They have continued to support me as circumstances have changed and they have never given up on me. I trust that they would never recommend a plan they wouldn’t do themselves, and they are always open to discussing ideas. Most importantly, they look for the root causes and use labs to determine next steps. This thoughtful and thorough approach has made a tremendous difference in my health journey and given me hope again for lasting change.

Vanessa, 32

When I came to Dr. Maren, I had a long list of debilitating, mysterious symptoms. She identified chronic infections and got my thyroid medication back on track. My Hashimoto’s antibodies have dropped by 60% and I’ve made steady progress with her team. Unlike past experiences with cold, fear-driven care, this team is compassionate, organized, and encouraging. They’ve helped me heal physically and emotionally, and I feel safe, heard, and supported. This is how medicine should be, brilliant, kind, and truly invested in your healing.

Federica, 40

This care has been life changing, lifesaving, life affirming. It was life changing for the first 7 years, with support through all stages of my pregnancies and postpartum. It was lifesaving in the 8th year, when Dr. Maren accurately, and with urgency, diagnosed acute leukemia after being ignored by my PCP for months and misdiagnosed by 2 other doctors who saw the same labs. It has been life affirming this last year, as she and her team support me through post cancer treatment, helping me and my body regain balance.

Jami, 45

Dr. Maren and her team significantly improved my digestive issues and hormone imbalances. They truly listened and ordered the right tests to uncover the cause of my symptoms. Treating the root cause resolved most of my issues and left me feeling healthier, more balanced, and energized, body, mind, and spirit. My biggest win was resolving my digestive issues, getting on the proper diet and supplements, and watching my energy and strength soar. I now feel like I can maintain my health long-term with confidence.

Darlene, 65

After years of digestive issues and unresolved hormone imbalances, I finally found the support and expertise I needed. Over the past year, I lost over 15 pounds by developing better eating habits with the nutritionist, learning to listen to my body, and treating underlying issues that were causing inflammation. Dr. Maren’s team and their functional approach has left me energized, balanced, and in control of my health again. I’m now in my second year of care, continuing to refine my health, and I’m deeply grateful for this partnership.
What happens during the Discovery Call?

The Discovery Call is a no-pressure conversation to determine whether we’re the right fit. We’ll briefly discuss your health concerns, share our clinical approach, and help identify which of our programs best aligns with your needs.

How do I become a patient?

Start by filling out our brief online application. This helps us understand your health goals and determine whether your needs align with our areas of expertise. If we believe we’re a good fit, you’ll receive an email with next steps—including how to schedule a Discovery Call.

Important: If you don’t see an email from us within 24 hours, please check your spam or junk folder. Still nothing? Reach out to us directly at admin@drchristinemaren.com.

Do you see patients outside of California, Colorado, Illinois, Michigan, or Texas?

Due to state licensing laws, we can only accept patients in the states where we are licensed. We’re actively working to expand licensure to additional states and would love to hear from you so that we can prioritize your area. You can do that by completing the first few questions in our application.

Do I need to be in a health crisis to work with you?

Not at all. Many of our patients come to us because they want to feel and function at their best, not because they are in a health crisis.

We believe good healthcare is about more than managing symptoms. It’s about giving you greater agency over your health, optimizing how your body functions, and helping you build the foundation to live the life you want to live.

Who do you typically work with?

We specialize in helping women who are ready to address fatigue, hormone imbalances, thyroid dysfunction, gut issues, autoimmune disease, metabolic health, and more.

We also support men, especially those referred by existing patients.

Can you be my primary care doctor?

No. Our practice functions as a specialty consulting service. You’ll still need a primary care provider for general medical needs, physical exams, and urgent issues like infections or injuries.

Do you accept insurance?

We do not contract with insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. This allows us to provide personalized, unhurried care without the limitations of insurance-based models. However, the vast majority of patients use their insurance to cover conventional lab work, and many also use HSA or FSA funds to pay for our services.
