Dr. Carter is double board certified in Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. She completed her residency at the East Tennessee Family Physicians of Kingsport in June 2018 and later was accepted into the second cohort of the American Academy of Family Physicians’ Leading Physician Wellbeing certificate program. A proud East Tennessee native now living in Middle Tennessee, Dr. Carter is passionate about helping Tennesseans achieve their health goals through sustainable lifestyle changes. She is also a devoted wife and mother of three children, ages 13, 11, and 2.5. Dr. Carter’s philosophy is simple: allow vulnerability, acknowledge when change is needed, and strive for progress rather than perfection. She openly shares her own journey with obesity and related health challenges, and the profound transformation she experienced through strengthening her Christian faith, becoming board certified in Lifestyle Medicine, and leaning on the support of family and friends. She looks forward to meeting you and walking alongside you as you pursue your own path toward optimal health.
How I Began
This practice started from my passion for a holistic, patient-centered approach to wellness. I saw the need for a place where comprehensive care and compassion come together.
