Christie Garb

Dr. Christie Garb, MD is a board‑certified family medicine physician who founded Garb Family Medicine as a Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice in Millbrook, NY. The practice’s DPC model eliminates insurance middlemen, offering patients a flat monthly membership that provides unlimited office visits, same‑day appointments, telemedicine, secure texting, email, video chat, and even home visits. Dr. Garb believes that personalized, relationship‑based care—where the doctor knows each patient’s name, history, and life circumstances—leads to better health outcomes and a more satisfying experience for both patients and clinician.

Dr. Garb earned her MD from New York Medical College in 2005 and completed a family medicine residency at the University of California, Davis Health (2005‑2008), serving as chief resident. She has been practicing in the Hudson Valley since 2008 and brings over 20 years of experience treating a broad range of adult and pediatric conditions, from chronic disease management to preventive care. Fluent in English and Spanish, she is committed to delivering comprehensive, culturally competent care to the community through the convenient, patient‑centered DPC model.
