Kimberly Cunningham
Nurse Practitioner, MSN, APRN, ANP-CADJOINT Faculty, CU College of Nursing
Kimberly is a Board-Certified Nurse Practitioner who has provided healthcare in Colorado for over 20 years, with experience across a range of settings, including the emergency department, inpatient hospital care, skilled nursing facilities, internal medicine, and healthy aging clinics. She started Cunningham Clinic with a focus on integrating Western and European guidelines to help people look and feel better after suffering a life-changing injury that left her immobile for years. Her own journey and recovery were fully achieved utilizing hormone replacement therapy, and she now teaches other providers how to integrate hormone therapies into their own practices. In 2023, she celebrated having a Number One New Release on Amazon with her book Great Sex Never Gets Old: Health, Hormones And Having It All After Forty.
Cunningham Clinic offers both healthy aging solutions and aesthetic treatments. Kimberly’s passion for helping people look and feel better is pursued through a conservative approach that uses the minimum intervention to achieve a natural correction and avoid looking “done.” First-time clients can feel comfortable knowing she uses a “start low, go slow” approach and crafts clinic days to allow for long visits and time to review each person’s anatomy, age-related changes, and the best way to use esthetic treatments to correct those changes.
Currently on the faculty at the University of Colorado College of Nursing and Regis University, and a trainer for Biote Medical and Allergan, Kimberly often has a graduate student or new provider shadowing in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy during clinic days to learn best practices or advanced techniques. Her passion for healthy aging and the preservation or recovery of functionality throughout the lifespan has yielded a carefully crafted collection of proven products and services to keep her clients, including current and former elite athletes, at peak performance as long as possible. She regularly hosts in-house training for her team to stay at the forefront of cutting-edge technologies and medications. She has her entire team in the process of becoming additionally certified in Functional Medicine.
Her dedication to education often includes speaking at professional conferences, trade shows, and corporate events.
