She loves every aspect of labor and catching babies, and cares deeply about ensuring accessibility to the elements of holistic midwifery care for all clients. She is also passionate about reproductive access, gender affirming healthcare, well-person care across the lifespan, and ante and postpartum care.
In her free time, Alex enjoys trying new restaurants, exploring museums, reading, hiking, and spending time with her friends, family, and Portuguese Water dog Sally.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Alex is incredibly kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable. She answers all my questions with patience and provides reassuring guidance that puts my mind at ease. Her warm and calming presence truly takes all my worries away. Plus, she’s absolutely beautiful, which adds to the wonderful experience. Highly recommend her!
She talked to me like I was a lost puppy looking for a soft spot to lay. She didn’t give me any medical advice, only asked for my own opinion. I’m still unclear on how I should go about things and unless someone requests a midwife, there’s no reason to assign one.
