About Dr. Omar Akhter:

I grew up in my native country of Pakistan in a family of physicians. I had many early exposures to the world of medicine.

I then practiced hospital medicine for a few years in a large hospital system in New Jersey before eventually settling in Austin, TX as a functional medicine doctor with my wife and young son. Working in these different systems gave me an excellent understanding of and exposure to our healthcare system. I now bring my experience to the world of Functional Medicine.
