About My Guest
Today I’m interviewing Dr. Tiffany Mullen, DO and certified with the American Board of Integrative Medicine. She is an integrative medicine specialist and has over 23 years of experience in the medical field. She is also the co-founder of Vytal Health, a telemedicine company based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin servicing patients from all over the country.
Dr. Mullen’s first role in healthcare was that of a patient. Diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis at a young age, she experienced the difficulties of living with an unpredictable and painful illness first-hand. After navigating a confusing and frightening healthcare system without finding genuine, compassionate care, she decided to dedicate her practice to providing integrative care for her patients.
Dr. Mullen is dually board-certified in Family and Integrative Medicine. Welcome, Dr. Mullen!
