About Dr. Chrisette Dharmagunaratne, MD

After completing her residency in 1999 at St. Paul’s Hospital in Dallas, Dr. Dharma single handedly grew her small medical practice into Southwest Family Medicine Associates (SFMA). As the medical director, she brings her passion for innovative and cutting edge technology to the practice, and worked to secure recognition of SFMA as a “medical home” from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA)-an elite accreditation which only 1,500 clinics in the nation hold. Dr. Dharma has a “no stone left unturned” philosophy to medicine, which has earned her a strong following of patients. She also believes that prevention is the key to good health, which lead her to establish our on-site wellness center in 2014. Her dedication to medicine is represented by the multiple board positions she holds, including president of her local chapter to being on the board of the national Texas of Physicians- (TAFP). As an associate clinical faculty member at UT Southwestern, she has taught medical student for over 15 years. In her spare time, she enjoys cross-fit, Capoeira martial arts, and spending time with ther family.

SWFM is the best. Thank you Dr. RANDHAWA and Dr. SPITZER‼️

Zaneta W. • December 26, 2025

My wait was an hour but I honestly can't complain. I needed to get her feedback on my health. Her directness is what I need. I don't need anyone beating around the bush about my health. This would have been a 5Star but the wait dropped it to a 4Star.

Lasondra T. • December 06, 2025

She is a wonderful Dr. She accidentally wrote down the wrong directions on my suboxone! When I called the next day to get itt straightened out! It took awhile for her to get in touch with the pharmacy. Other than that, She is an excellent doctor!!

Michelle Jasper Saved My Life – And She Can Change Yours Too If you had told me a year ago that I would lose 124 pounds, reverse my atrial fibrillation, and improve my severe sleep apnea to mild, I wouldn’t have believed you. I had spent years feeling trapped in a body that was failing me—struggling with my health, my energy, and my confidence. But everything changed the day I walked into Michelle Jasper’s office. Michelle didn’t just help me lose weight; she gave me back my life. She saw me not just as a patient, but as a person. She listened when I was frustrated, encouraged me when I doubted myself, and never let me give up on myself—even when I wanted to. Thanks to her, my heart is stronger, my energy is limitless, and my future is brighter than I ever imagined. I wake up each day feeling alive again—something I hadn’t felt in years. I know, without a doubt, that she has added years to my life. If you’re reading this and you feel hopeless, stuck, or unsure where to start, I promise you—Michelle is the answer. She is the kind of clinician who genuinely cares. She will help you find your why, create a plan that actually works, and celebrate every victory with you along the way. I spent years searching for solutions, trying everything, and feeling like I would never break free. But now, I know what’s possible. I’m living proof. And you can be too. Make the appointment. Trust Michelle. She will change your life. Forever Grateful, John
