Profile

After working as an ER doctor for seventeen years, Alexander Kulick turned his talents toward more integrated, holistic medicine. Today, his modest Upper East Side clinic sees patients for the usual bugs, aches, and pains, but most visit for his signature nutrition counseling, acupuncture, and mesotherapy treatments. With many patients sports-injured, overweight, or in the senior set, Kulick develops a personalized, integrated treatment plan that’s tailored to address specific ailments, from allergies, arthritis, and fatigue to heart disease and migraine. Diet and acupuncture often augment traditional medicine. Some medical and aesthetic issues are tackled via mesotherapy, a nonsurgical alternative to liposuction that involves microinjections of medications both conventional and botanical, vitamins and nutrients. In addition to wide using it for spot weight loss or to target cellulite, Kulick also turns to mesotherapy to treat sports injuries and pain management. The lunchtime meso-lift facials have earned a devoted following for their firming and glowing results. — Molly Noonan
