M Alexander Lapp, Otr/L, CHT

Dr. Lai is passionate about preventive health, along with working with patients to treat and improve chronic conditions such as hypertension and lipid disorders. Dr. Lai's desire to create a healthier and better community inspired him to become a health care provider. He is a Seattle native and likes staying active by hiking and exercising on a regular basis. He also enjoys spending time with his wife and son.

I worked as team physician for a local professional baseball team. I have also worked with the Tacoma Rainiers, the Seattle Marathon, Virginia Tech athletics, Rat City Roller Derby, Seattle Dragons of the XFL, and high school football teams as a sideline physician. I diagnose and treat a wide range of sports-related injuries. My special interests include ultrasound-guided injections including steroid and PRP injections. I also perform osteopathic manipulative treatments on musculoskeletal injuries when appropriate.

My practice focuses on care after surgery, managing overuse disorders, treating neuropathy and fractures, and creating orthotics. I was inspired to go into health care because I enjoy helping others.
