About Me
Alicia Gonzalez, FNP-BCFunctional Medicine & Root-Cause Primary Care | TelehealthI am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with extensive clinical experience in primary care, internal medicine, pediatrics, pulmonology, women’s health, and urgent care. Throughout my career, I worked in a variety of settings; including outpatient clinics, hospital-based care, long-term care, and community health; where I consistently encountered the same challenge: patients with ongoing symptoms were often told their labs were “normal,” yet they continued to struggle with fatigue, weight gain, poor sleep, anxiety, hormonal changes, and chronic conditions.That gap in care led me to functional medicine.My approach focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of symptoms rather than simply managing them. I am particularly passionate about working with women navigating hormonal transitions, as well as individuals dealing with metabolic dysfunction, prediabetes, hypertension, and chronic inflammation.In my practice, I take the time to look at patterns; how lifestyle, nutrition, stress, sleep, and biochemical imbalances interact to influence health. I utilize a combination of clinical evaluation, detailed history, and targeted laboratory analysis to develop personalized care plans tailored to each patient.I believe patients deserve to understand what is happening in their bodies. Education is a central part of my care model, allowing patients to feel empowered and actively involved in their healing process rather than dependent on quick fixes.My care model is designed to be practical and sustainable. I focus on realistic, step-by-step interventions that patients can integrate into their daily lives, including nutrition strategies, lifestyle modifications, and when appropriate, targeted supplementation and medical therapies.I currently provide telehealth services through a personalized, patient-centered model that offers longer visits, ongoing support, and a deeper level of care than traditional settings. This model is ideal for individuals who are seeking a more comprehensive, root-cause approach and are ready to take an active role in improving their health.My goal is not only to help patients feel better in the short term, but to create lasting changes that support long-term health, resilience, and quality of life.
