As a proud Atlanta native, it is an honor to serve my community and neighbors as a Primary Care Physician Associate. While I care for the full range of primary care needs, I am a Certified Menopause Practitioner and have the privilege of walking alongside women as they navigate perimenopause, menopause, and the many changes that come with midlife health. Prior to Ascend, I spent 3 years working in a gastroenterology clinic, giving me extensive experience with digestive health and persons with disordered eating.

Before I ever stepped into a medical clinic, I spent 11 years as a high school science teacher, which is an experience that shapes how I practice every day. I have made it my mission to educate you though plain language and to answer every question you bring to the visit. No concern is too small, and you should never leave an appointment feeling confused about your own health. Having once been the overlooked, unheard patient - scared and alone - I know how isolating illness can feel.

Whether you're facing the ups and downs of perimenopause, working through a digestive health concern, or everyday wellness, my promise is simple: you'll be heard, you'll be respected, and we'll figure it out together.

For the first time in my life I feel like I've found a medical provider who actually listens, provides helpful feedback, and approaches you with kindness and grace. I can't recommend Kristen and her team enough.

I'm a new patient and saw Kristen Oliver as my provider, and it was undoubtedly the most competent, professional, and proactive medical experience I've ever had. It's so rare these days to meet providers who truly care, take the time to get to know their patients, and follow through thoughtfully in their care journey. Kristen exceeded all of my expectations!

Kristen is great. I love her, she seems to genuinely care about the patient and it doesn't feel robotic! She listens. Everyone I've encountered in the office is welcoming.

This is a very friendly and authentic group. Relaxed but very professional obviously. Everyone's in a good mood and seems happy. Kristen Oliver is superb.
