Hello! I am Dr. Christine Daecher (pronounced “decker”). I am Board-Certified in Internal Medicine (IM), and I have received certification from the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM). Previously, I had a solo IM micro practice in Camp Hill, PA. After 14 years, I closed the practice, moved south, and transitioned to telemedicine, focusing on urgent care, wellness visits, and routine care with a large national company. While working in telemedicine in an insurance-based health system, I could only sprinkle bits of a functional medicine approach into the care I provided. My desire to help more patients has led me to change gears and open a new private practice so that I can fully apply functional medicine.
​
I am fully licensed in GA, FL, SC, TX, and PA.

How did I find functional medicine? Several years ago, I began my functional medicine training. I soon became disenchanted with some of my education and its application to chronic conditions, especially obesity. In conventional medicine, the physician is often alleviating symptoms or managing the condition. With functional medicine, the goal is to reverse illness and to do so with as little medication as possible. As a functional medicine physician, I use advanced labs to evaluate nutritional status, gut health, hormone levels, inflammatory processes, and body detoxification systems. I work with you to make meaningful lifestyle changes that become habits.
Whether your goal is to lose weight, reverse metabolic conditions, get off prescription medication, fix biotoxin (mold) illness, balance hormones, fix your gut, reverse autoimmune disease, or improve mitochondrial health, I am here to help.
