We provide a range of anti-aging therapies including bioidentical hormone replacement therapy to help you stay youthful, sharp, and fit as you age so that hormonal imbalances don't drain you of your vitality. Don't let hormone imbalances call the shots! Take charge of your health with a personalized treatment plan that's safe and smart.
Bioidentical hormones, derived from compounds found in plants, are now being used in place of traditional HRT.
They are an exact match to hormones found in the human body making them free of pollutants that can raise your risk for certain illnesses & are highly customizable for proper dosing.
In conjunction with my functional wellness approach, I carefully prescribe bioidentical hormone replacement to alleviate symptoms.
Your dosage is customized specifically to you, your physiology, and specific needs based on your hormone testing, age, weight & risk factors.
While BHRT can be life-changing, I look at the full "hormone health spectrum" by also reviewing all other aspects of functional health including nutrition, detox and lifestyle.
I provide personalized nutrition & detox guidance to compliment BHRT and help reduce inflammation and further balance your hormones.
Kristina Gonzalez, DNP, FNP-C, is a board-certified family nurse practitioner and hormone health specialist who came to this work the hard way, through her own experience of perimenopause. Despite eating well, exercising, and doing everything right, she found herself struggling with debilitating brain fog, unexplained weight gain, joint pain, hair loss, and exhaustion that her providers couldn't explain.
After discovering that her symptoms were hormonal, not neurological or "just getting older", she pursued specialized training in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and functional medicine, to transform her own health. Now she brings that same approach to her patients: evidence-based, compassionate, and rooted in the belief that women deserve real answers and real solutions.
Kristina specializes in hormone optimization, metabolic health, gut health, and medical weight management. She integrates conventional and functional medicine into her practice, guided by the belief that the best care draws on every tool available.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Gonzalez for about three months, and from the first visit she made me feel comfortable, heard, and informed. Her recommendations aligned with what felt right for me, which helped me move forward with confidence. I’m naturally cautious with new medications, and she has always respected that, never rushing or pressuring me and fully supporting a conservative approach to dosage and treatment pace.
The changes have been gradual but meaningful. I no longer need sleep medication and I’m noticing improvements in my mood and overall well-being. Scheduling and follow-ups have been easy, communication has been clear, and I always feel supported and cared for. I’m truly grateful to have found her and would highly recommend her thoughtful and trustworthy approach to hormone therapy.
The journey of peri-menopause is a wild roller coaster full of ups and downs. Finding a trusting support system including a knowledgeable prescriber to order the right treatments is key to getting through this stage of life with success. I have been working with Pristine hormones for 3 months now and they are knowledgeable, kind, caring and quick to respond to my questions and make necessary adjustments to my plan that they tailor just for me based off of my symptoms and blood work. I feel supported by them and more importantly, I feel physically and emotionally so much better.
I've been seeing Kristina for going on 4 months and she exceeded my expectations. My weight goals have been met and my hormone labs are outstanding. Kristina has a warm one on one environment, she is knowledgeable, caring, passionate and constantly stating up to date in what she does. She takes time to educate and answer any questions or concerns at any time. I trusted Kristina with every step of the process and I have no regrets. Kristina is amazing and I'm forever grateful. We need more like her!!
