Dr. Karen Bullington graduated summa cum laude from Ouachita Baptist University in Arkansas in 1985. She spent one year working in the Los Alamos New Mexico National Laboratory in the area of medical research and then earned her medical degree from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque in 1990.

In 2005 Dr. Bullington joined the Fibromyalgia and Fatigue Center of Atlanta as an attending physician and began to specialize in the use of bio-identical hormone therapies along with the evaluation and treatment of Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. She received intensive training from Dr. Kent Holtorf and from Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum.
