Dr. Kristin MakinajyanFNP, DNP

Kristin is a Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Doctor of Nursing Practice with over 25 years in patient care — from trauma ICU and home health to primary care and integrative medicine. Born in Armenia and raised in Pasadena, California, she is now a leader in Tucson healthcare and the founder of Total Health Tucson, the in-person practice that has informed every clinical protocol in the GoodLife Health platform. Her specialty is what most primary care misses: hormone optimization, metabolic health, and the kind of unhurried clinical relationship that comes from actually looking at the labs and the patient together.

She co-founded GoodLife Health with Dev for the same reason she started Total Health Tucson — too many patients she saw in clinic had spent years being told their labs were normal while feeling unwell. And she has lived it herself. Kristin is on Wegovy for sustainable weight loss, following the same low-dose, slow-pace protocol the platform recommends — and her own results are the proof: 8% of her body weight gone in 9 weeks, 17% by week 27, 18% by week 35. Wegovy's published ceiling is roughly 18% over 72 weeks; she reached it in a fraction of the time, without the crash. She is not prescribing what she has not tested. She is scaling what is already working.
