Hi, I’m Kristen Knopp, FNP-C, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in healthcare. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing from Saint Joseph’s College of Maine, graduating with honors in 2016. My career spans critical care, geriatrics, chronic pain management, and advanced treatments in both regenerative medicine and functional medicine.
At QC Kinetix in Portland, Maine, I specialize in regenerative therapies like stem cell injections and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to promote healing, reduce pain, and restore mobility—without the need for surgery, steroids, or pain medications. My approach integrates functional medicine principles, focusing on identifying and treating the root
causes of chronic conditions to optimize the body’s natural ability to heal and thrive.
I’m committed to offering my patients a holistic, science-backed approach to their health. Outside of work, you’ll find me hiking, horseback riding, or experimenting with healthy recipes at home in Western Maine.
With more than 14 years of experience as a Physician Assistant in orthopedics, Brigham brings a strong commitment to patient-centered care with a specialized focus on joint health. For over a decade, he concentrated on joint replacement surgery—guiding patients from initial evaluation through surgical recovery and long-term outcomes—before transitioning into the field of orthopedic regenerative medicine.
Brigham has performed over 10,000 joint injections and is highly skilled in ultrasound-guided techniques, offering precise, real-time treatment for optimal results. He also has extensive experience with bone marrow aspiration procedures, a key component of many regenerative therapies for musculoskeletal conditions.
Brigham is passionate about helping patients move better, feel stronger, and live with less pain. His goal is to create thoughtful, personalized treatment plans that support healing, enhance mobility, and improve overall quality of life.
