Kristen Lowery, PA-C

Originally from Michigan, Kristen moved to Asheville in 2017 after falling in love with the mountains during a weekend trip while in PA school.  She graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology.  Kristen was then awarded a National Health Service Corps Scholarship and used that scholarship in the Physician Assistant Program at James Madison University.

Kristen has worked in both primary care and palliative/hospice care. During this time she realized her interest in oncology with a special concentration in hematologic malignancies.  She truly enjoys developing relationships with her patients, making sure they feel supported throughout their treatment and knowledgeable about their diagnosis.

In her spare time Kristen relaxes with her husband, their cat and two rescue Pitbull mixes. She also enjoys CrossFit, yoga, hiking, cooking a nice meal while listening to good music and scuba diving.
