Hi Alicia, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Dr. Alicia is a dedicated functional medicine provider passionate about empowering individuals to achieve optimal health through holistic, natural, and evidence-based approaches. With a robust educational foundation and diverse clinical experience, Dr. Alicia integrates her expertise to address the root causes of illness and promote wellness through integration of evidence based practice, patient-centered care, and natural approaches.

– I still work in western medicine, but my approach has always been, here’s your options, the medicine or the education of how to do it without medicine. Its your choice of what you put in your body, I can help you with either option. Even if you choose the medicine, youre going to get the education of how to be healthier as well but more as an education rather than a full plan.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
I am working full time in western medicine and in corrections, while being a mother, and furthering my education in functional medicine, psychiatry, and achieving my Doctorate in nursing. I am trying to live the lifestyle as well by growing my own garden and trying to get rid of microplastics in my house to provide a healthier and cleaner life for my family.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
There are many functional medicine providers out there. I think my approach is well rounded with my knowledge of western medicine and natural approaches. I love working with mental health, Fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, weight loss, general health, a chronic diseases. I am down to earth and have worked with a variety of patients from all walks of life making me easy to talk to and understanding
