Are you wondering if Direct Primary Care is right for you? When I had a part-time job (without health benefits) as a physician, I stressed all the time about utilizing my high-deductible plan and paying out of pocket. It left me endlessly worried when my child got sick. I avoided going to the doctor because of the cost, but also feared ending up in the Emergency Room because the office was closed. And when my daughter did get the flu on New Year’s Day, this actually happened. We got hit with an $1800 bill. Not to mention all the waiting, with a sick, dehydrated toddler.
I think if I had known a DPC doctor, I would have signed up. Having access to a doctor, worry-free, when I needed it would have saved me time, money, and most importantly, lots of heartache.
I can imagine during this pandemic people might also be in a similar situation; and having a doctor that’s accessible and affordable would give invaluable peace of mind. So I thought I would share a breakdown how our DPC practice might benefit you during this pandemic.
We are available!
Our practice model lets us see you when you need it. Not next week or next month. We get our patients in on the same or next day. Right now, more than ever, having worry-free access to a doctor is so important.
We don’t have people waiting
We see one patient at a time, and never have crowded waiting rooms—pandemic or not. When you’re trying to stay safe and limit exposure to others, it can be stressful to decide to go to urgent care or even wait in your doctor’s office inside for a long time.

For those who the pandemic has lead to devastating job losses or loss of insurance, we are here for you. Our practice is affordable, does not bill insurance, does not require co-pays, and does not have any hidden charges.
