About the Guest

Dr. McKinzie started her education at Oklahoma Christian University with a strong passion to help families. She obtained a degree in psychology before deciding to attend Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. Dr. McKinzie gravitated towards the challenging field of Anesthesiology and completed her residency at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.

After practicing for 5 years, it became apparent that, like her, many patients were neglecting their own health to take care of others. At that time, she not only regained her passion for exercise and self-care, but also began a business in health and nutrition counseling. Through that business, she identified a need for those who were unable to achieve the exact results they desire – no matter how hard they work. That is where her passion for aesthetics came in.

For the past five years, she has been practicing in both fields of medicine and continues to add to her list of services. Her latest endeavor includes bioidential hormone replacement therapy (or rather optimization) and it seems this will be her most rewarding chapter yet.
