About Us
How we can help —
With our model you'll work closely with one of our coaches to implement a wellness-oriented diet and lifestyle to improve health conditions and geared to meet your health goals. Our team physician and founder, Dr. Laura Houser, is our personal medical resource. She serves as a medical provider for some of our local clients, but you're not required to be under her care to participate in our programs.
Dr. Houser founded this concept to ensure that the principles and resources of lifestyle medicine could be made available to any and everyone! Ultimately she's here to help us serve you by being available to answer questions, provide her medical expertise, and feature in our classes or programs to share her wealth of knowledge on women's health and functional medicine.
Change is hard at first, messy in the middle, and gorgeous at the end.

Physician
Laura Houser, MD
I’m a board certified OB/GYN and practicing partner at Columbus Obstetricians-Gynecologists Inc. — I treat common gynecologic problems with a functional medicine approach, which includes foundational functional medicine principles. I also encourage my patients to work with their primary care physicians for general health care needs.
After practicing obstetrics and gynecology for over 20 years, I realized that I needed to make changes in my own diet and lifestyle if I wanted to improve my lifespan, and health span. My search for better care for myself AND my patients led me to the Institute for Functional Medicine. After taking my first course I was hooked and ready to learn all I could! I was finally learning how to help patients be WELL, not just how to prescribe medication or recommend surgical procedures. Functional medicine has made me passionate once again about my work — sharing this information is now my purpose.
I created Live Well 365 to do just that. I saw a need to provide my patients (and you!) a broader platform to address health care needs.
Functional medicine uses a team approach towards healing, and at Live Well 365, this team includes you, a health coach, perhaps a registered dietitian and physician. This model provides the guidance and coaching needed to achieve your health care goals.
We’re happy to have you — welcome to Live Well!
Health Coach
Caitlin Pfeil, FMCHC, CPT
The kind of world I want to live in celebrates holistic health with a focus on balance, where body positivity is the norm and where “bad” foods don’t exist. It’s possible with small but powerful steps, accountability and support and, dare I say, making it fun!
Over five years ago, I knew I had to make a change. At my heaviest, I was fifty pounds overweight, tired and moody, with skin issues, allergies, and frequent headaches. I joined a gym, became a trainer and my passion led me to fitness competitions. Competing taught me extreme drive and motivation, patience and discipline, but definitely not balance. Now, I’m an advocate for balancing physical, mental and emotional health, which I’ve seen spill over into and improve all different areas in my own life and in the lives of my family, friends, and clients.
I’m a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach and an NCCA Certified Personal Trainer, with a specialization in fitness nutrition, and a Lifestyle Educator. I look forward to meeting you and working with you to help you achieve your goals and live your best balanced life!
Our Model
Focusing on you
01 — determine where you are
At what part of your health and wellness journey are you? What are your thoughts about your current health and what have you tried in the past?
02 — discuss your goals
You came here for a reason… what is it? What goals do you have for yourself? Do you know what’s motivating you to make a change or keeping your from success?
03 — plan your path towards progress
It’s time to determine exactly how we can best serve you. We’re your partner — here to help you find what you need to be successful.
Your path will look different because your life is different and your goals are personalized.
We’ll work together to find the areas of health and wellness where you need support, education, or tools for success!
04 — your support along the way
Behavior change is hard! Life gets in the way sometimes. Perhaps what’s worked for you in the past is turning out to be a bust now. We’ll help you work around these barriers that may spring up in your day-to-day life.
Remember, we’re here to help you find success and provide that support you need for as long as you need it!
