Founder & Clinician

Meet Kristen.

DMSc, PA-C GLP-1 Specialist Lifestyle Medicine RYT-200

Kristen Schnurman is a clinician, a yoga teacher, and the founder of Arrival Clinic. She built a practice at the intersection of modern metabolic medicine, evidence-based lifestyle medicine, and the wisdom of yoga — because she believes the three belong together.

Kristen Schnurman, DMSc, PA-C — Founder of Arrival Clinic

Three disciplines.
One philosophy of care.

Arrival was built on the belief that modern medicine's most powerful tools — including GLP-1 therapies like tirzepatide — work best when they're integrated with the science of lifestyle medicine and the mindfulness principles of yoga. Not as alternatives. As partners.

💊
Modern Medicine
GLP-1 therapies like tirzepatide are among the most effective metabolic tools in the history of medicine. Arrival prescribes them — and surrounds them with everything they need to work.
🔬
Lifestyle Medicine
The evidence is unambiguous: nutrition, sleep, movement, stress management, social connection, and purpose shape health as powerfully as any prescription. Arrival's Four Pillars™ organize this evidence into something you can actually live.
🧘
Yoga & Mindfulness
Kristen's 200-hour yoga teacher training (2018) reshaped her understanding of the body. Breath, presence, and intentional practice are not soft add-ons to health. They are the nervous system regulation that makes everything else sustainable.

Clinically grounded.
Soulfully led.
