I am Dr. Yalavarthi, a Board-Certified Family Medicine Physician. I graduated from University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine and completed my residency at Baptist – Lutheran Medical Center in Kansas City. After residency I moved to St. Louis with my husband to be close to family.
My goal in this direct primary care practice is to provide personalized, cost-effective, and cost-conscious healthcare to my patients all while loving my job. I am excited to spend time with my patients, making decisions together based on the best evidence available. While I treat both acute and chronic conditions, I am a big proponent of preventive care. Keeping you healthy through nutrition, exercise, and mental well-being is just as important as treating an illness.
My husband and I have 3 children and two dogs. In my free time, I enjoy watching my kids at their sporting events, playing tennis, running, reading and being with my family and friends.
