Urgent care leader welcomes new CFO and CPO to drive financial sustainability and workforce development in expanding access amongst rural communities
OKLAHOMA CITY, July 16, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Xpress Wellness, a Goldman Sachs Sustainable Investment Fund company, and leading provider of urgent care, virtual primary care and occupational medicine services across underserved communities, has announced the appointment of Joe Alegre as Chief Financial Officer and Traci Bowen as Chief People Officer, effective immediately.
With more than 70 locations across Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, and continued expansion planned for 2025 and beyond, Xpress Wellness is reinforcing its commitment to transforming health care delivery in rural and suburban America.
"As we grow, we're creating more than clinics; we're building a durable, mission-driven organization," said David Pyle, CEO of Xpress Wellness. "Joe and Traci bring the leadership, expertise and heart that will help Xpress Wellness scale responsibly while staying rooted in our purpose. Their work will directly impact both our people and our patients, especially as we deepen our presence across Texas under the Integrity Wellness brand."
As Chief Financial Officer, Alegre will lead the organization's finance, accounting, revenue cycle and managed care contracting, serving as a key advisor to the leadership team in driving mission-aligned growth. He brings two decades of financial leadership across dental, surgical and post-acute sectors, including CFO roles at Oral Surgery Partners and West Coast Dental.
"We're building a financial strategy, not just a strong balance sheet, that enables better care and better outcomes for the communities we serve," said Alegre. "Xpress Wellness brings a clear sense of purpose to its growth, and I look forward to supporting its next chapter with discipline, insight and integrity."
As Chief People Officer, Bowen will oversee core human resources functions including recruiting, career development, training and continuing education, while leading efforts to strengthen employee engagement. By creating a culture that supports team member growth and long-term career advancement at Xpress Wellness, Bowen will shape a people-first organization. She brings decades of HR leadership experience across multiple industries, including a previous tenure alongside Xpress Wellness CEO David Pyle at Adeptus Health, where she helped the company become recognized as one of the best places to work in health care.
"My focus is on elevating the workplace experience where people feel valued, supported and inspired to grow," said Bowen. "At Xpress Wellness, our people are our strength. When we invest in them, we're investing in the quality of care our communities receive."
