At just 27 years old, Christina Khouri is already making a name for herself as both a doctor and a businesswoman in Croatia.
After graduating from medical school, Christina now works as a general practitioner and aesthetic medicine doctor in her family’s network of private polyclinics.
With specialisation options still open, she is currently leaning towards dermatology, plastic surgery or ophthalmology.
While many wonder about her unique surname, Christina is Zagreb-born and raised. Her father, originally from Syria, came to Croatia at the age of 18 to study medicine.

He later met Christina’s mother and chose to stay, eventually founding the family’s successful polyclinics.
Christina, alongside her brothers Matheo Marsello and Anthonio, launched the wellness brand Revive Me a few years ago – one of the first of its kind in Croatia.

The brand offers intravenous nutrient infusions designed to support and enhance overall health and wellbeing. A fourth sibling, Christian, handles the website and technical operations.
“I have always had a strong sense for both medicine and business. When the opportunity came, I knew I had to go for it,” Christina explains. “Of course, none of this would have been possible without my brothers. Balancing entrepreneurship and medicine is not always easy, but I’m grateful to have such a supportive family behind me.”
So, what exactly are nutritional infusions?

“These are special solutions infused with vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, amino acids or glutathione, delivered directly into the bloodstream,” Christina explains. “Each infusion is tailored individually, depending on a person’s health and needs. They help with everything from improving physical and mental wellbeing to preventing dehydration and speeding up recovery.”
One of the key advantages is the 100 percent bioavailability of the micronutrients, meaning the body absorbs them fully.

There are also specific infusions ideal for athletes, especially those rich in amino acids, which help with muscle recovery. Popular infusions include those with high doses of vitamin C, B-complex, glutathione and other essential nutrients.
Before starting treatment, every client has a consultation with a doctor to determine the best combination for their needs. For the best results, Christina recommends one infusion per week over a period of four to five weeks.
“These infusions can be used for medical reasons, such as vitamin deficiencies, but also as a preventative method to boost immunity, restore energy and improve sleep,” she adds.

“Patients are thrilled. It took a few months for people to try it, but once they did, they kept coming back. Most of them tell me they sleep better, feel more energised during the day and notice improvements in their immune system.”
Revive Me infusions are currently available at four locations: Poliklinika Zahi in Zagreb, Velika Gorica and Ivanić-Grad, and at Poliklinika Premium in Vrbovec.
In addition to IV therapy, these clinics offer a wide range of medical services including diagnostics, microbiology, lab testing, gynaecology, urology, dermatology, minor surgical procedures, ultrasound imaging, aesthetic medicine, cardiology, gastroenterology, orthopaedics, endocrinology, ENT services and full medical check-ups.
