Lisa King, MD

Dr. King began her career in Fredericksburg, VA at an urgent care center, where she was instrumental in developing a continuity practice for patients who repeatedly used the center for routine health maintenance. She later joined the Medicorp Health System, as an inpatient physician, where she and two other physicians founded the Fredericksburg Hospitalist Group. Several years into her inpatient experience, she came to a cross roads personally, and professionally. After re-examining her primary care roots, she realized that she had not yet fulfilled her desire to have a lasting impact on the health and wellness of her patients.
n 2004, she ventured into fulltime outpatient internal medicine incorporating holistic approaches to wellness and weight loss. In 2008, she was joined by Velma Bunch, PAC, and together they have continued to serve the Northern and Central Virginia region assisting thousands in their efforts to win at wellness and weight loss.
D. Lisa is passionate about encouraging and empowering her patients as she partners with them in the office, the community or in the conference setting to tailor plans for optimal health. She is supported by her husband Dr. James E. King I, founder and Sr. Pastor of Land of Promise Church in Spotsylvania, VA and their two beautiful sons.
