CAIRO, GEORGIA: TLC's 'Welcome to Plathville' star Kim Plath is a naturopathic doctor. Even though naturopathic doctors aren't permitted to use the title "doctor." But, according to Georgia naturopathic doctors aren't "registered or licensed" doctors.

In addition to being a self-proclaimed doctor, she is also a mother, author, and ballet dancer. Kim along with her husband Barry Plath also owns an Airbnb, that costs the clients around $165 per night.
