About

Alexandra (Ali) Colwell, NP, is a UW Health nurse practitioner who specializes in hematology (blood diseases) and oncology (cancer). Ali works as part of a multispecialty team to evaluate and treat various types of cancers and blood disorders.

As a nurse practitioner, Ali works with hematologists and oncologists to care for patients currently undergoing treatment.

If needed, she provides alternative therapies.

Ali takes a patient-centered approach to care. She enjoys getting to know her patients, including their interests, care goals and concerns. She educates them about their conditions and ensures that they understand all the treatment options available to them. She is an advocate for her patients and helps them get the support they need within the clinic, at home and in the community.

In her free time, Ali enjoys spending time with her family.

It’s rewarding getting to know patients over time and hearing their success stories.
