Alicia Gatti is a Board-Certified Adult Nurse Practitioner and the CEO & Founder of modernDOSE. She graduated from Adelphi University with a BS in Nursing and earned her MS in Adult Health Nursing with Honors (Sigma Theta Tau) from SUNY Stony Brook.
She started her career as a Registered Nurse at Good Samaritan Hospital's Ventilator Medical-Surgical Unit, spending a decade building deep clinical knowledge before advancing to Assistant Nurse Manager. From there, she moved into primary care as a Nurse Practitioner, training alongside medical spas and plastic surgeons across Long Island's North and South Shore — and it was during this time that her aesthetics journey began.
After years of watching clients get surface-level treatments while the real issues — hormonal shifts, low energy, weight changes — went unaddressed, Alicia founded modernDOSE in 2020 to close that gap: a Nurse Practitioner-led practice where aesthetics and wellness are one conversation, not two separate appointments. She holds formal certifications from AMET, ESI, and Empire Medical Training, with advanced training in injectables, PRP, PDO threads, microneedling, laser systems, and bioidentical hormone therapy, and is a Certified BioTe Provider. But her story with modernDOSE isn't just professional — it's personal. Alicia has lived the same shifts many of our clients come to us for, which is exactly why she built a plan-based, no-pressure approach instead of a quick fix.
Her journey into nursing was inspired by her grandmother's own nursing career — a legacy that continues to fuel her dedication to compassionate, client-centered care. Outside of modernDOSE, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, especially her two dogs.
