About Dr. Alicia
Meet Dr. Alicia McCarthy, ND
“I believe beauty starts from within—and aging gracefully is a whole-body experience.”
Hi, I’m Dr. Alicia McCarthy—a licensed Naturopathic Doctor with a unique approach that combines the science of aesthetic medicine with the power of functional wellness. My mission is simple: to help you feel confident, vibrant, and truly yourself—inside and out.



My Journey
Before entering the world of aesthetic and integrative care, I spent over a decade working in emergency medicine and EMS. That hands-on experience taught me the value of quick, practical care—and the importance of listening deeply to each patient.
After earning my Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine from the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, OR, I completed a CNME-accredited residency in primary care at NUNM’s Teaching Clinic.
My love for aesthetics grew from my work at Knott Street Dermatology, where I currently serve as the primary aesthetic provider. I’ve trained under some of the most respected names in the industry and now bring those skills to my private patients in Hood River.
