Dr. Karen Kaufman – Passion for Functional Medicine
While practicing in Boulder, Dr. Kaufman became aware that patients needed and wanted more than what they were receiving from traditional Western Medical healthcare. She observed that while some patients felt better with certain medications including bio-identical hormones, a large percentage continued to not feel “well” or had even more symptoms because underlying issues were not addressed. Through these observations she became passionate about functional, integrative medical care and incorporating more holistic approaches with patients. As a result, she pursued a fellowship in Functional Medicine to develop a deeper understanding of the underlying triggers that keep patients from experiencing their optimal health.

More Time for Personalized and Comprehensive Care
Dr. Kaufman recognized that she wanted to take more time to investigate and understand the various underlying causes of her patient’s symptoms than she had in a traditional medical model. Her current practice, Kaufman Health and Hormone Center reflects a personalized and comprehensive care model emphasizing the partnership between doctor and patient.
Partnering With Patients
Each patient is an individual with varying backgrounds, life stressors, medical history and symptoms. Dr. Kaufman takes the time to learn about and partner with each patient to provide more personalized and comprehensive health care to help someone feel better when out of balance.
Mission Driven
Dr. Kaufman’s mission is to provide personalized and comprehensive health care to patients using both conventional medicine combined with her functional medicine training. Her focus is in adolescent gynecology, peri-menopause, menopause and hormone changes throughout every decade of life.
