CHRISTIE SHEN

Dr. Christie Shen prides herself on being a Central Texas local. Born in Austin, she grew up in Pflugerville, Texas, graduated from Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas, and then moved to Dallas, Texas, to complete her medical studies at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School. She completed her residency at San Jose O’Connor Hospital Family Medicine program. Excited by the Direct Primary Care model, she joined Ochna Health in September 2018, and she is excited to have her at the clinic. The setting allows her to truly care for her patients without worrying about administrative burdens or restrictions. No longer just focusing on sick care, she can now fully practice preventive care, the hallmark of Family Medicine. Her aims are to get you well, and keep you well. Fluent in Spanish, she is excited to be able to deliver her care to Spanish‑speaking patients who find their health care options limited in the traditional health system.
