About
Christopher Stadtherr, MD founded Revitalize Metabolic Health after spending years in hospital medicine watching preventable metabolic disease unfold. He noticed the same cluster of diagnoses appearing repeatedly: obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, and fatty liver disease. That pattern drove him to build a practice focused on root causes rather than downstream consequences.
Dr. Stadtherr holds certification in Obesity Medicine and specializes in family medicine, functional medicine, and preventive care. His clinical passions include insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease prevention, lipid science, CGM technology, nutritional management of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and the metabolic dimensions of cancer. He has followed a low-carbohydrate dietary approach for over a decade and has personal experience managing cough-variant asthma through dietary intervention. Outside medicine, Dr. Stadtherr is an avid backpacker and has explored destinations including Olympic National Park, the Enchanted Valley, and the Hoh Rainforest.
