I’m Doc Alexander, a Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (DAOM), Licensed Acupuncturist and Eastern Medicine Practitioner, and wellness coach passionate about guiding individuals toward holistic health and personal transformation. My approach combines the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern strategies to help my patients achieve balance, vitality, and a renewed sense of purpose. As a compassionate problem-solver, I work with people who are ready to take charge of their health and wellness. My practice focuses on empowering patients to rebuild their physical, mental, and emotional well-being through acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, wellness coaching, and other time-tested techniques. I believe that true healing begins when we address the root causes of imbalance and commit to the journey of change. With over a decade of experience as a healthcare leader, educator, and healer, I’ve cultivated a practice that prioritizes personalized care, inclusivity, and community. Whether I’m teaching patients about the benefits of acupuncture, designing individualized wellness plans, or helping someone reconnect with their vitality, my mission is to help people thrive in every aspect of their lives. Outside of my practice, I bring my background in technology, education, and nonprofit leadership to develop systems that support sustainable growth and improved quality of life for others. My varied and diverse personal and professional experiences have given me a unique ability to connect with and understand patients from all walks of life, helping me provide care that is both empathetic and deeply personalized."

Identified and designed an elegant solution to fill a gap in community health by creating a mission-driven nonprofit organization to provide low-cost wellness services to underserved communities by creating living wage jobs that qualify for Public Service Loan Forgiveness. Selected Contributions: • Reduced long-term cost savings by more than 10% and freed up limited resources after automating donor management using saas technology such as Ortto, Zapier, Stripe, and Salesforce. • Eliminated 75% of costly outside software solutions after I leveraged the Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud grant program to create a bespoke electronic medical record (EMR) designed for traditional Chinese medicine-focused research coupled with an end-to-end patient management system. • Increased donations more than 10% by writing, designing, and overseeing implementation of brand development, marketing, and fundraising; created, built, and updated the website, wrote comprehensive fundraising materials, produced fundraising videos, and created engaging content for marketing automation applications. • Managed over 25 individual employees, volunteers, and consultants to achieve success.
