Internal Medicine and Holistic Medicine Combined
A Message from our Founder
Welcome! I’m Dr. Karen Sun, founder of the Integrative Wellness Center in Orange County, California, and board-certified in both Internal Medicine and Integrative & Holistic Medicine. After facing my own struggles with menopause, gut issues, and the limitations of conventional care, I discovered powerful, evidence-based solutions—like bioidentical hormone pellet therapy, personalized nutrition, detox, and regenerative treatments—that transformed my health and now transform the lives of my patients. Some of these really effective evidence-based solutions I found over the years was captured in my first book : Vitality Now - A comprehensive guide to anti-aging, rejuvenation and vibrant health.
From fatigue and mood swings to gut imbalance and stress, I treat the root causes, not just the symptoms. Whether you're searching for answers after years of frustration or simply want to slow the aging process and feel your best, I’m here to help. Let’s create a personalized plan so you can thrive—stronger, healthier, and more vibrant than ever.
