Mission

As the second generation owner of O’Brien Pharmacy and the Kansas City Holistic Centre in Mission, Kansas, Lisa grew up in pharmacy and healthcare, yet was dubbed the “un-pharmacist” for helping patients attain healthier lives through lifestyle changes, such as adopting a plant-based diet, versus popping pills. She uses her almost 50 years of experience as a clinical pharmacist and 30-some years as a certified clinical nutritionist to help people achieve the reversal of disease and the reclamation of their health. In her private consultation practice, she focuses on outcome-based holistic patient care and education. Her work incorporates the principles of biochemically-based clinical nutrition, spirituality, physiology, and pharmacology.

Lisa is the President of the International and American Associations of Clinical Nutritionists, a member on the Government Affairs Committee for the Kansas Pharmacists Association, and is on the Foundation Board of Directors for the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding. She served on the Professional Affairs committee for the Kansas Pharmacists Association and the Education Committee for the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding. She has fellowships in the American College of Apothecaries and the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding. Lisa was on the Midwest Internal Review Board for 10 years, overseeing more than 950 studies for the Food and Drug Administration, and served on the board of trustees for the American Holistic Medical Association. Lisa formulated the antioxidant supplement Body & Vision, and the multi-vitamin/mineral Optimal Daily Allowance which won the NutriSearch Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements Five Star Award in 2014. Recently, Lisa authored a textbook to benefit both practitioners and patients titled Learning to Thrive in a Toxic World and the Impact of Clinical Endocrinology and BHRT, and is working on a follow-up book for practitioners. Lisa is currently seeking her diplomate in constitutional homeopathy as a student of The Canadian College of Homeopathic Medicine.
