Alexandra P. Riccio, Ph.D., FNP

Dr. Alexandra Riccio is an Integrative Family Nurse Practitioner and Classical Homeopath at Beth Israel's Center for Health and Healing in NYC.

She studied classical homeopathy at the New England School of Homeopathy and started practicing homeopathy in 2003. Prior to moving to NYC with her family, Dr. Riccio had a homeopathic practice on eastern Long Island and Saratoga Springs.

By 2006, she became a family Nurse Practitioner, using both conventional medicine and homeopathy to address and treat all illnesses on the mental, emotional, and physical levels. Dr. Riccio also integrates nutritional/diet counseling, stress reduction guidance, and life style management. She specializes in family wellness and primary care with emphasis on women's health and children's issues and illnesses. Her integrative and holistic approach is highly effective in these populations.

Throughout her career, she has successfully treated clients with ADD, allergies, asthma, autism, GI disturbances, urinary tract infections, migraines, skin ailments, emotional problems, hormonal imbalances, psychological issues (anxiety, depression, OCD) pain, and acute illnesses (viral and bacterial infections).

Dr. Riccio strongly believes that providing a patient with various treatment options and modalities empowers the patient to discuss and make knowledgeable decisions about their own health. She welcomes one and all to her practice and encourages parents to participate in the healing and wellness of their children. “Treating the entire family truly helps to paint the clearest and most descriptive picture of the health imbalances of an individual”.
