Dr. Katia Meier is Board Certified in Family Medicine with an extensive background in Germany and the United States. She attended Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany where she received her M.D. in 1998.

She garnered a broader understanding of alternative therapies to achieve optimal health including herbal medicine, acupuncture and craniosacral therapy.
In preparation for medical internship in the United States, Dr. Meier passed the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and attended The University of North Dakota –School of Health and Sciences, an institute with a concentrated focus on women’s health, obstetrics and sports medicine.

Dr. Meier went on to practice obstetrics for eight years until the birth of her son, Noah. At which point she chose to retire from hospital work and become a solo practitioner opening the doors of Clear Sky Medical in 2007. Resolute in her passion to educate and help others, Dr. Meier remains abreast of new developments in the field of medicine. She endeavors to help patients look and feel better by rehabilitating the body – not just prescribing medications to nullify symptoms.
