Dr. Ellie Reidt. Chiropractic Physician | Functional Medicine Practitioner | Acupuncture Provider

She has completed advanced training in Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) through the BHRT Training Academy and is currently pursuing her diplomate (DABCI) through the American Board of Chiropractic Internists to further specialize in internal medicine, advanced diagnostics, and functional nutrition.
Dr. Ellie’s passion for functional medicine lies in its ability to go beyond symptom management to truly identify and address the underlying imbalances that cause dysfunction. She is especially passionate about supporting women’s health—guiding patients through all stages of life, from puberty and the reproductive years to perimenopause and menopause. Whether it’s hormone imbalances, menstrual irregularities, fertility challenges, or healthy aging, she creates individualized plans that combine lifestyle medicine, targeted supplementation, advanced lab testing, and mind-body support.
She also believes deeply in the power of food as medicine. Her approach emphasizes whole-food nutrition as the foundation for health and healing, and she enjoys educating patients on how to use food, movement, and mindset to optimize their vitality and well-being.
At Health by Design MD, Dr. Ellie blends functional medicine principles with evidence-based therapies like acupuncture to support the body’s ability to heal and thrive. Her clinical interests include hormone optimization, thyroid and adrenal health, women’s health, functional nutrition, lifestyle interventions, regenerative therapies, and in-depth diagnostic testing. With her warm and encouraging presence, Dr. Ellie ensures every patient feels seen, heard, and supported on their unique health journey.
