Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a healthcare model where you pay a monthly subscription fee directly to your physician for a range of primary care services. This model eliminates the red tape and restrictions of traditional medical practices, putting you first with more personalized and accessible care. https://youtu.be/HKl80u54pp4

The DPC membership includes comprehensive primary care services such as routine check-ups, preventive care, chronic disease management, and same-day or next-day appointments. It also covers basic lab tests and procedures performed in the office.

Although Direct Primary Care (DPC) and concierge (VIP) practice models have similarities such as membership fees and small patient panels, there are some very fundamental differences: • VIP charges significantly higher membership fees PLUS retail prices for medical services, • DPC has much lower member rates with INCLUDED medical services.

Absolutely! We believe that everyone benefits from more personalized medical care, which is why we offer customized healthcare tailored to each patient's specific needs. Being proactive with preventative healthcare is better than being reactive after more complicated medical issues arise.

By providing unparalleled access to your physician, our hope is to minimize referrals to specialists or hospitals. However, if needed, we will work closely with your hospitalist and/or specialists to help manage your care.

Since urgent medical needs don't always happen during business hours, you can call, text, email, video chat (Telemedicine), social media message, etc. your physician any time. It's how we provide personalized healthcare.

If you need medical attention while traveling, our independence from third-party payers allows us to communicate freely with patients. And since we know our patients so well, many illnesses can be diagnosed and treated remotely via phone, email, text, or webcam (TeleHealth / Telemedicine). We can even find a nearby pharmacy and order the appropriate medications, no matter where you are. https://youtu.be/X34xwVJJqkM
