Dr. Alexis Cutchins
board-certified Cardiologist
founder of Cutchins Cardiovascular Medicine
I began this work after years of caring for patients with POTS, MCAS, hypermobility, and other conditions that many doctors were not prepared to manage. My dedication to this patient community is what led me to build a practice centered on their needs.
I wanted to create something different for people who are often under-recognized and left without answers.
At Cutchins Cardiovascular Medicine, we provide inclusive, high quality support for those living with complex chronic illness.
Our Mission
Cardiovascular Care You Deserve
Inclusive, trauma-informed medicine built on deep listening and clinical excellence, empowering women and LGBTQIA+ individuals on their journey to lasting health.
At Cutchins Cardiovascular Medicine, we are committed to serving under-recognized and marginalized communities, especially women and LGBTQIA+ individuals—through inclusive, trauma-informed, and evidence-based cardiovascular and chronic illness care. By centering our practice on clinical excellence, deep listening, and collaborative partnerships with patients, we aim to restore quality of life and empower individuals on their healing journey.
