I’m Chris Caffrey, a dual board-certified nurse practitioner with 16 years of experience across a broad range of medicine.
My career began in surgical specialties, where I worked across urology, neurosurgery, ENT, and gynecology before spending additional time focused specifically in neurosurgery. For the past 10 years, I’ve worked in gastroenterology, with the last several years also overlapping with psychiatric care.
That combination of experience has shaped the way I see health. Working across different specialties has given me the opportunity to see the same person from very different clinical perspectives—and recognize how often the boundaries between specialties fail to reflect how health actually works.
My interest in looking beyond individual diagnoses eventually led me to pursue additional training in functional medicine and become certified in nutrition. Today, I bring those perspectives together through Flexup Wellness.
Outside of medicine, I’m a husband and father of two girls. I enjoy the outdoors, strength training, learning, and continually exploring practical ways to improve health and performance. I understand that any health plan ultimately has to work within a real life filled with family, work, stress, and competing priorities.

Mission
To provide the time, expertise, and partnership needed to see the whole picture of your health—and turn that understanding into meaningful, sustainable change.
Healthcare often separates the body into individual systems. Flexup Wellness takes a more integrated approach, recognizing the relationships between gut health, mental wellness, metabolism, hormones, nutrition, lifestyle, and overall well-being.
My mission is to combine thoughtful medical care with functional and lifestyle-based strategies to uncover what may be holding you back, identify what can be improved, and create a personalized path forward.
Not more testing for the sake of testing. Not endless supplements.
Not generic protocols.
The right tools, used thoughtfully, to help you optimize, transform, and sustain your health.
