"The day I became Alicia's patient was a turning point in my health journey. She took her time, sincerely listened, and thoroughly investigated the root cause of my symptoms."
Alicia Barkholtz, FNP-C, is a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) at Forum Health Fond du Lac and sees patients virtually at Forum Health Knoxville. She has a robust set of skills and knowledge from her experience in urgent care, med/surg units, and the COVID unit in 2020.
Alicia’s journey into integrative medicine began during her undergraduate studies when a close family member fell gravely ill and traditional medicine couldn’t provide answers. She turned to Fox Valley Wellness Center, now Forum Health Fond du Lac, where Dr. Meress diagnosed her family member with advanced Lyme disease. His integrative approach facilitated significant healing, igniting Alicia’s passion for holistic care. Since then, she has been deeply committed to integrative and functional medicine.
Alicia’s practice style is collaborative, working closely with patients to develop individualized treatment plans that balance happiness and health, recognizing that it’s unique for each individual.
Outside of the practice, Alicia is an outdoor enthusiast who loves running, hunting, fishing, and spending time in nature. She cherishes time with her husband, Jordan, their energetic springer spaniel, Kip, and their wonderful daughter, Haven.
