Dr. Reid Christopher earned his medical degree from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and has been practicing medicine since 1989. He is board-certified in Internal Medicine and spent 36 years in private practice in Bessemer, AL, before joining Complete Health.
Passionate about the role of nutrition, exercise, and the study of lipids and atherosclerosis in overall health, Dr. Christopher is dedicated to helping patients take a proactive approach to their well-being. His decision to pursue medicine was deeply influenced by his father, a respected physician who played a pivotal role in improving rural healthcare in Alabama. Growing up, he witnessed firsthand the impact compassionate and high-quality care can have on a community—a legacy that continues through multiple generations of the Christopher family in medicine.
Outside of the office, Dr. Christopher enjoys golf, bow hunting, fishing, and the study of prehistoric fossils.
