Liz grew up in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado, and graduated in 2005 with honors from the University of Colorado at Boulder with a degree in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology.

After moving to North Carolina, she was fortunate enough to work as Integrative Family Medicine’s first employee in 2011. Inspired by the compassion and integrity with which Dr. Krisel and Dr. Lewis treat their patients, Liz pursued her own degree in medicine, graduating in 2015 with distinction from the Physician Assistant Studies department at Wake Forest School of Medicine. She has been practicing at Integrative Family Medicine as a PA since August 2015.

Serving the patients of Integrative Family Medicine and the WNC community is a great honor for Liz. She helps her patients develop sustainable and mindful ways to health. Liz has particular interest in women’s health, coordination-of-care for patients with outside specialists, and enjoys meaningful and unique relationships with all her patients.

When she’s not in clinic, Liz enjoys exploring the trails and mountains around WNC with her husband and dogs, experimenting in the kitchen, entertaining at home, and traveling to see friends and family.
