Meet Alexis, a highly qualified Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner who brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to her role at Absolute Health. With a degree from South University and certification in functional medicine underway, Alexis is dedicated to providing her patients with the highest level of care and a holistic approach to healthcare.
As a veterinary technician for ten years prior to becoming a nurse, Alexis has a unique perspective on healthcare. Her extensive experience working with animals has given her an in-depth understanding of anatomy and physiology, both of animals and humans. Because animals cannot communicate with words, Alexis had to develop the ability to read their body language and understand their needs based on their behavior. This experience has honed her intuition and allowed her to provide personalized care that meets the unique needs of each patient.
In addition to her experience as a veterinary technician and her dedication to functional medicine, Alexis’s approach to patient care is another aspect that sets her apart. She is committed to educating her patients about their health conditions in a way that is easy to understand and encourages them to take an active role in their own healthcare journey. Alexis takes a patient-centered approach where the patient is an active participant in the care plan. She works collaboratively with her patients to develop a personalized plan that takes into account their individual needs and preferences, ensuring that they feel supported and empowered throughout their healthcare experience.
Alexis’s passion for functional medicine is rooted in its approach to treating the root cause of health concerns rather than just managing the symptoms. This philosophy aligns with her goal of helping patients achieve optimal health and wellness. With a focus on nutrition, lifestyle changes, and integrative therapies, Alexis helps her patients take control of their health and reduce their reliance on medications.
Outside of work, Alexis enjoys playing and watching sports, reading, and spending time with her close-knit family. As a proud mother, she loves supporting her children in their various activities, including sports. Her daughter is currently studying Agribusiness and is on a softball schedule, while her son is active in flag football and baseball. Alexis is grateful for her family and the time she gets to spend with them.
Alexis is dedicated to ongoing learning and professional development, regularly attending conferences and workshops to stay up to date on the latest research and advancements in her field. With her commitment to excellence and her passion for providing holistic care, Alexis is an invaluable member of the Absolute Health team.
