Guest's bio:

Annika Lintvedt is a 4th-year medical student at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine and is graduating in May. She is pursuing a combined residency in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics at the University of North Carolina starting this June. Annika served as the Trainee Vice President of Communications through the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) and is a Recipient of the 2022 Donald A. Pegg Student Leadership Award through the ACLM.
Annika's passion for lifestyle medicine grew after she witnessed a family member with critical illness, as it prompted the realization that there was so much more to creating and sustaining health than medication and procedures.
Annika has vast career interests and is looking forward to exploring them throughout residency. It is her hope that she will be able to bring her understanding for holistic patient care and passion for evidence-based medicine into her career as a physician, with the goal of practicing true health care, not just sick care.
