Kristine grew up in Cedar Rapids and attended the University of Northern Iowa for her undergraduate studies. She earned her MBA with a specialization in Data Analytics from Colorado State University in 2020. Since 2015, Kristine has worked in healthcare, gaining in-depth knowledge of medical insurance and administrative operations. Her goal is to help patients feel confident navigating their insurance benefits and ensure a smooth, informed experience from start to finish.
Our work brought us together in 2017. In late 2020, we saw an opportunity to better serve our local community and founded Horst Physical Therapy. What began as a shared vision quickly grew into a patient-centered clinic rooted in trust, compassion, and evidence-based care. Since opening our doors, we've been committed to providing personalized, hands-on treatment that empowers individuals to move confidently, recover fully, and live healthier lives. As a locally owned practice, we value the relationships we build and take pride in being an active part of the community we call home.
