My Story

About Dr. Amy Myers

Dr. Myers is an accomplished, formally-trained physician who received her Doctorate of Medicine from Louisiana State University Health Science Center in 2005. From there, she served as an Emergency Medicine Resident at the University of Maryland Medical Center from 2005-2008, and an Emergency Physician at both Dell Children’s Hospital and the University Medical Center Brackenridge from 2008-2010. 

She was the founder and Medical Director at Austin UltraHealth from 2010-2018, where she helped thousands of patients with autoimmune, thyroid, and digestive issues reverse their conditions and reclaim their health.  

While running Austin UltraHealth, she also completed her certification in Functional Medicine at The Institute of Functional Medicine in 2012.  

Dr. Myers is a published medical researcher who also holds a US/International patent for her work: “Inhibition of angiogenesis and destruction of angiogenic vessels with extracts of noni juice (Morinda citrifolia)” PCTIUS02127579. 

She originally discovered her passion for helping others while serving as a US Peace Corps volunteer in Paraguay, and decided to pursue medicine. While in medical school, she was diagnosed with Graves’ disease, an autoimmune thyroid condition, and because her conventional medicine doctors were unable to help her regain her health, she decided to embark on her own journey to healing. 

Along the way, she made it her mission to help those who’ve also been failed by the conventional medical system restore their own health and live their best lives.
