DR. Nicole ALEXANDER- SPENCER MD
For more than two decades, Dr. Nicole Alexander-Spencer has cared for patients through every season of life — first pregnancies, growing families, new diagnoses, and the quieter turning points in between. Medicine, for her, has always been more than a profession. It is a calling grounded in compassion, trust, and deep respect for each person's story, which shapes how deeply she listens and how fully she sees each patient. Her move to a concierge model reflects a simple belief: good medicine takes time. With a smaller practice, she can sit down, listen without watching the clock, and follow a plan through from the first conversation to the follow-up. Care is built around prevention, partnership, and the day-to-day habits that shape how you feel — with a physician who knows your history and answers when you reach out. Dr. Alexander-Spencer completed a fellowship in Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona under Dr. Andrew Weil and holds a Master of Arts in Spiritual Psychology from the University of Santa Monica. That training shapes a whole-person approach: evidence-based Western medicine blended thoughtfully with natural and holistic therapies, addressing the root of a concern rather than the symptom alone, and honoring how closely mind, body, and purpose are connected. As a Black female doctor trained at Howard University College of Medicine, she brings both clinical rigor and cultural insight to every patient relationship.
