Kristina Schafer is an Adult Nurse Practitioner with 13 years of experience in the nursing field, including 5 years practicing as a nurse practitioner in internal medicine. Her clinical background is rooted in comprehensive adult care, with a strong focus on prevention, chronic disease management, and whole-person wellness.

Kristina co-founded Riverstone Wellness Internal Medicine and Psychiatry alongside her partner, Christina Holliday, with a clear vision: to create a medical practice where patients are truly seen, heard, and given the time they deserve. She believes meaningful healthcare cannot be rushed, and she intentionally structures care to allow for thoughtful conversations, thorough evaluations, and collaborative decision-making.

Her approach to medicine is proactive rather than reactive. Kristina emphasizes early intervention, preventive screening, lifestyle optimization, and patient education to help individuals stay well—not just treat illness after it appears. She partners closely with her patients to build personalized care plans that support long-term health, vitality, and balance.

At Riverstone Wellness, Kristina is committed to delivering high-quality internal medicine in a setting that values time, trust, and relationship-centered care.
