Some issues Dr. Alyssa J. Stickney, MD can help you with:

Depression

Everyone knows what it feels like to get the blues once in a while. But depression is a serious illness that is more severe than a bad day and lasts much longer. Symptoms of depression stop a person from being able to function and enjoy daily activities for weeks or months at a time. It can happen to anyone, and it isn't something that people can control by force of will or "snap out of it."

Some common symptoms of depression include:

Feeling sad, guilty, empty or hopeless
Fatigue and a lack of energy and motivation
A loss of pleasure in activities that were previously enjoyed
Unusual sleep or eating habits
Mental fog -- trouble concentrating, remembering, or making decisions
Physical aches and pains
Suicidal thoughts or a preoccupation with death

We don't yet know what causes depression, but it's thought that it is a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and social influences. Because of this, the most effective treatments for depression combine medication with psychotherapy. Therapy, especially cognitive-behavioral therapy, can be extremely helpful in resolving the negative thoughts and feelings that come with depression. It gives patients new tools that they can use themselves to cope when their depression is making them feel down.

Some of the common medications used to treat depression include antidepressants such as SSRI's (Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft) or atypical antidepressants (Cymbalta, Wellbutrin). It's important to remember that these medications have different effects on everybody, and no one medication works right for everyone. Patients may have to try a couple before finding the one that works just right for them. If the first medication they try doesn't work, they should talk to their doctor about trying something else. In extreme cases where medication is not enough, electro-convulsive therapy and hospitalization may be the answer to keeping a severely depressed person safe.

Depression is a difficult illness to deal with, but it is more common than believed and there are many people who can help. With the right treatment, individuals with depression can get back to fully enjoying life again.

Eating Disorders

Eating disorders are mental and physical illnesses that impact behavior, emotions, and thoughts about eating, food, body appearance, and weight. These disorders are characterized by preoccupations with food and physical size, resulting in dramatic lifestyle changes and adverse health effects. In the past, eating disorders were often diagnosed using BMI (body mass index), or by assessing someone's weight. Eating disorders specialists now recognize that eating disorders may occur in people of all sizes. The most common eating disorders are anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder (BED).

Anorexia nervosa, frequently referred to as anorexia, is a disorder where people severely restrict the types and quantity of food they eat. Those with anorexia have an extreme fear of eating and gaining weight and may repeatedly weigh themselves or engage in harmful behaviors such as excessive exercise or starvation. Those with anorexia often find themselves preoccupied with food, but unable to consume a healthy amount of it. This results in symptoms such as abnormally low BMI, vitamin deficiency, fatigue, fainting, and amenorrhea (lack of menstruation in women). Anorexia may cause bluish discoloration of the hands, brittle and falling out hair, yellowish skin, and lanugo (fine, downy hair). Left untreated, anorexia can lead to organ failure, brain damage, and even death.

Bulimia nervosa, typically called bulimia, is a disorder where people binge (eat large quantities of food) and purge the food that they just consumed by vomiting, laxative abuse, fasting, or excessive exercise. This behavior is usually motivated by a feeling of powerlessness over eating and a fear of weight gain or desire for weight loss. Bulimia can occur in underweight, normal weight, and overweight people. Symptoms of bulimia include acid reflux, intestinal distress, dehydration from purging, amenorrhea, and dental erosion from vomiting. Some people with bulimia have swollen parotid glands (salivary glands near the cheeks) and red scars and marks on the backs of their knuckles. Electrolyte imbalance from bulimia can be particularly severe and may lead to heart attack or stroke.

Binge eating disorder (BED) is the most common eating disorder. People with BED feel that they are unable to control the amount of food they eat and may continue to binge after reaching a point of fullness. BED binges (consuming large amounts of food) are often accompanied by feelings of sadness, guilt, and shame. Symptoms of BED include obesity, acid reflux, weight gain, and dissatisfaction with one's body. People with BED tend to experience cycles of negative emotions and binges. Binges or BED episodes can be provoked by stress, boredom, restrictive dieting, depression, and other triggers.

Other common eating disorders include:

Pica, eating things that are not food, such as paper, ice, or soil
Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID), disinterest in eating and avoidance of food
Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder (OSFED), abnormal eating that does not fall under any disorder

Many people with eating disorders do not consciously develop them, and have difficulty seeking treatment. For this reason, it's important to detect and treat eating disorders as early as possible. Treatment for eating disorders can vary from therapy visits to inpatient treatment, depending on the disorder and its severity. Treatment aims to not only restore physical health and correct negative behaviors, but to also promote psychological well-being and self-confidence.

Sexual Health Issues

Sexual health is a broad and loosely defined term that encompasses several extremely different areas of medicine. Sexual health not only includes physical health related to the act of sex, but also emotional, mental, or identity issues that can interfere with healthy sexuality. Because this scope is so broad, a huge number of health care professionals can accurately say they work in the sexual health specialty. Some of the many varied conditions included in sexual health include intimacy disorders, sexually transmitted diseases, reproductive health, LGBTQ issues, and sexual violence.

Sexual intimacy disorders are those that cause problems with the act of sexual intercourse, such as erectile dysfunction or vulvodynia. Erectile dysfunction, the inability to get or maintain an erection hard enough for sexual intercourse, is extremely common. It affects fully half of men over 40 to some degree. It is treated with medications, devices, or surgery. Vulvodynia, burning pain in the vulva that can be made worse with sexal activity, has no known cause. It is treated with oral or topical medications.

Sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV/AIDS, herpes, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, are bacterial or viral infections that are contagious in the bodily fluids exchanged during sexual contact. Barrier methods of contraception, such as condoms, help prevent the spread of STDs. HIV is a virus that can be caught from an infected person's sexual fluids or blood. When the virus infects the body, it interferes with the immune system and causes the disease known as AIDS. There is no cure, but anti-viral medications can help people with AIDS live a long and healthy life. Herpes is also a virus found in sexual fluids, called HSV-2. It causes blisters that come and go on the genitals. There is no cure for herpes, but anti-virals can minimize outbreaks. Gonorrhea and chlamydia are both bacterial infections. They are extremely common and often have no symptoms. The most common signs of an infection are burning pain and discharge. Gonorrhea and chlamydia can be treated with medications.

Reproductive health refers to both contraception and infertility treatment. Contraceptives prevent and plan the timing of pregnancy. Some, such as a vasectomy or tubal ligation, are extremely effective at preventing pregnancy. Others, such as spermicides, are less reliable. Popular contraceptives include condoms, birth control pills, IUDs, and diaphragms. On the other side of reproductive health, infertility is the inability to carry a pregnancy to term after one year of trying. It can be due to problems in either the man or the woman, and both genders are affected equally. In total, about 15% of the population suffer from infertility. Infertility treatments include medications and surgery.

Gay and transgender people have a few specific health care needs that may sometimes fall under the sexual health umbrella. First, many LGBT people still face discrimination from healthcare providers, so providing supportive and appropriate care is an issue. Because of social attitudes surrounding sexual orientation and gender identity, many gay and transgender people struggle with their identities. Rates of depression, substance abuse, and suicide are all higher in this group. Providing mental health support and counseling to those in transition is critical. Finally, transgender patients who are undergoing gender affirmation require sensitive medical health care, including surgical and hormonal treatment.

Sexual violence can be defined as any unwanted or non-consensual sexual activity. It ranges from sexual harassment to touching to rape. It affects women more than men and is widespread: 1 in 4 women report being victims of sexual violence at the hands of a partner, and as many as 1 in 3 girls report their first sexual contact as being violent. Sexual violence has lasting physical and emotional consequences for victims, but educating both girls and boys can prevent violence. Care for those who have endured sexual violence includes counseling and mental health support, medical care, and legal support.

Sexuality is more than a reproductive requirement -- it is a form of expression and identity. Sexual health blends all these aspects of experience together and helps people lead sexually fulfilling lives.

I have ALWAYS felt heard, respected and "included" in determining my plan of care. I have always appreciated that Dr. Stickney presents options for care and gives me the choice to determine things for myself though I trust her judgement more than mine for sure! She makes myself and my family members feel comfortable and at ease. She Is compassionate and is truly invested in her patients. I always want to refer her (which I do) and yet I am afraid the word will get out and she will always be too booked up! She is already popular with the patients ) I have never had a negative experience at the Monroe clinic and I have been going there for many years. From the friendly front desk, security, imaging and lab techs to the MA's who greet me in the room!! I have always had a great experience!!! I appreciate you

The last doctor I visited at Providence was a very negative experience that kept me away from the office for over a year. When I received the letter that that doctor was leaving the practice and I'd be assigned a new PCP, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little relieved. Dr. Stickney was the doctor I was hoping to get. She asked lots of questions and ACTUALLY LISTENED TO MY ANSWERS! Imagine that! I could tell she was taking my experiences and wants to heart, and very clearly wanted to help me. I was so nervous going to this appointment and her energy put me at ease immediately. I left feeling very reassured, validated and actually cared for rather than just another name on the list like my last provider.

I think Dr. Stickney is the best PCP I have ever had. The appointments don't always start on time but I assume that's because she is also giving other patients the care they need and deserve even if it doesn't fit in the scheduled appointment time. I love that she seems to follow the "Health At Every Size" philosophy and doesn't assume the answer to all my problems is to lose weight. I feel respected and it feels like we are collaborating on my care instead of her assuming I don't know anything about my own body and adopting a 'managerial' tone with me. I wish she were accepting new patients so I could refer friends to her!

Dr. Stickney is very attentive, thorough and has always been very wonderful at putting me at ease, I am not fond of visiting doctors. I like that she offers suggestions on how best to manage your own health. I prefer to take care of my body through diet and exercise, and she supports that and gives me tools and information to do so. I truly appreciate that she listens to my concerns. She lets me know if I need to take further medical action on them. Dr. Stickney provides well-balanced care. She had better not retire before I am dead!! )

Dr. Stickney is a superb doctor. She examined my sprained knee (I had to come into the office on crutches), looked at my medical records (focussing on a recent X-ray), they set out her diagnosis and treatment recommendations. She used the longest needle I'd ever seen, explained that it held both anesthetic and steroid, then gently inserted it into the exact spot of my knee's pain. I walked out of the office and healed in the next 5 days just the way she predicted. She's a miracle worker!

Dr. Stickney & her team always get back to me in a timely manner when I send messages through the My Chart portal. Dr. Stickney actively listens to me and answers my questions thoroughly and without rushing. I always feel treated with respect & compassion. I am 60 years old and have received a good amount of medical care in my adult life. I have a direct line of communication with my doctor and her team. They meet my healthcare needs with courtesy & care.

Dr. Stickney is the best provider I've had in my whole 51 years--I feel like they are setting a new standard for me to search for if I ever need to change providers again. They take all my concerns seriously and I feel like I have agency in the direction of my care at the same time that I am receiving their expert advice. I don't believe my health conditions or my concerns would be taken as seriously if I were still with previous providers.

My provider and the whole team at Providence makes me feel very safe and secure with all of my treatment I've been seeking . I feel extra blessed to get this support . It makes me want to get healthy and to stay healthy, which is something I have avoided in the past due to either dis-satisfaction or a phobia of mine. I love my Providence team !
