Alexis Tremble, LCSW
As a young student, I always enjoyed science. But it was the prolonged illness of one of my best friends during college that led me to choose medicine as my career. \n I have learned that the best advice can be given only after careful listening. That's why I am passionate about taking the time to really listen to my patients so I can help empower them to make the best decisions for their health. \n Over the years, I have listened to women who are frustrated that they can't successfully lose weight and keep it off. Many have tried a variety of diets and supplements that aren't always effective. I became a diplomate in obesity medicine - a distinction awarded by the American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM) - to provide the best, safest and most effective care for these patients. \n Medicine is always changing, and I make it a priority to keep up to date on the latest treatment options available. My philosophy also includes using natural healing to complement medical treatments. As a result, I have earned several advance certifications, including North American Menopause Society Certified Menopause Practitioner and a hypnobirthing certified practitioner. \n My hypnobirthing training helps my patients who want a natural birth experience to be more comfortable during labor. \n I'm also a certified (by the North American Menopause Society) menopause practitioner and am passionate about providing excellent care during and after menopause - and that includes prescribing bioidentical FDA-approved hormones. \n My wife and I have lived in Charlotte for about 15 years. We met during training at Duke University Medical Center. We have three children and enjoy spending as much time with them as possible. I enjoy being outdoors and spend a lot of time hiking on nature trails. I also enjoy baking with my kids. As a Formula One racing fan, I love cheering for Max Verstappen and the Red Bull racing team.
