ABOUT
Saadia Alvi, MD
Dr. Alvi believes in the power of both evidence-based conventional and lifestyle medical approaches to prevent, manage and treat endocrine conditions. After 13 years of practice, she opened her membership-based care practice, Vitality Endocrinology, to help her patients actively pursue better health.
Beyond the Basics
As a Plant-based Endocrinologist, Dr. Alvi takes endocrine treatment to a more in-depth level of encompassing health. Incorporating lifestyle medical approaches into conventional medical treatment, she provides enhanced care through improved preventive options. This approach emphasizes a partnership between her and her patients, for optimum health now and into the future.
Ongoing Prevention
Giving her patients the flexibility of ongoing care is key to endocrine-based disorders, which often require a higher level of monitoring. Membership-based care offers an affordable way for patients to budget their health care dollars. It also gives them a higher level of access to endocrine health care – to do more than merely manage symptoms.
Through this combination of ongoing management, monitoring and multi-level treatment, her patients can better control their endocrine-based disorders. Dr. Alvi believes this focused approach helps her patients feel better, and live better, every day.
A More Personal Approach
Dr. Alvi’s customized approach to her patients’ long-term health includes a highly-personalized relationship with each individual. At each extended appointment, she listens, answers questions and develops a course of action tailored to the person. She provides ongoing care through unlimited appointments and on-call availability to answer questions via phone, member portal email or video conference. She also provides telemedicine services to Florida residents.
