WHY MEMBERSHIP MEDICINE?

Over the last few decades, the business of healthcare has created an environment where family practice physicians have spent less and less time with patients and more time having to work through the system.

On average, a primary care physicians spends only about 15 minutes with patients each visit, often less. And with big insurance running the healthcare system doctors are forced to carry a patient load of over 2,000 patients.

With a membership model, or having a concierge doctor/direct primary care, we eliminate the insurance middle-man and are able to take time with each patient and go over everything from acute issues to preventative screenings. There are unlimited appointments and we are easily accessible over the phone and by email. That is the true value of what you get by being a patient; an old-fashioned relationship with one doctor who really knows you.

It really is like having your personal doctor on call.
