Care Philosophy: For Alex Huechteman, PA-C, there is no role in medicine quite as specialized and dynamic as the partnership with complex pediatric patients and their families. Despite being so rare, pediatric hematologic disorders and pediatric cancer have significant support networks for research to provide the evidence-based care. Although vastly researched, each patient's journey with cancer is personal and unique. Each diagnosis accompanies an introduction to a team of providers and supporters who have deliberately chosen to advocate for the ultimate well-being of each individual. It is an honor to be a part of a team and play a tactile role for every patient. Centered on integrity and compassion, empowering families to make strong decisions and take strides together is at the center of her work.
