About Dr. Christina Long, MD, FACEP

I’m Christina Long, MD, FACEP, DABOM, a board-certified Emergency Medicine (ABEM) and Obesity Medicine (ABOM) physician with more than 15 years of experience.

In 2023, I traded the fast-paced life in Chicago for a more intentional and adventurous mountain lifestyle. I currently still practice as an Emergency Medicine physician part-time. As a mom of three young kids, scaling back on my shiftload has helped me be present at home for my family and focus on my own wellness. This has allowed me to embrace my passion for health and wellness, offering various facets of telehealth care services including weight loss, sexual health, travel medicine, and longevity. I quickly discovered how meaningful it was to connect with patients one-on-one and help them reach their health goals, while being mindful of their time constraints. As an EM physician, friends, family, and even strangers often ask for medical advice or a prescription for minor concerns. That’s when the idea for concierge medicine clicked—why not create a service that gives patients exactly what they want: direct access, timely care, and expert guidance without the hassle?

The Bougie Bee MD was built to meet that need. While I’m not here to replace your primary care physician or emergency care, I am here to offer elevated, personal, physician-led care with same-day or next-day virtual access and à la carte treatments. Think of this as your boutique, bougie medical club—where your goals matter, your time matters, and your wellness takes center stage.

When she is not working in the ER, or at home in her all-pink office (adorned with Taylor Swift), she enjoys spending time with her husband and three daughters. She enjoys the outdoor lifestyle in Utah, frequently hiking, skiing, snowboarding, and exploring national parks. She has two large dogs who also enjoy hiking with her. She has accumulated additional "critters" from her kids, including 3 axolotls and a betta fish who keep her company in her office. When the weather is not permitting, she can be found in her home gym, lifting weights, hiking on the treadmill, or working out with friends on the Peloton rower or bike.
