By taking yourself out of the traditional route of insurance-based medical care, where physicians are burdened by too many patients and limited time with each patient, you are eliminating the stress of paying a premium you are afraid to use because of high copays and deductibles. Just having insurance doesn’t mean you have good access to health care. The average family spends $17,000 annually paying for health insurance premiums. With concierge medicine, patients choose to sign up for a high-deductible insurance plan, where premiums are low, but catastrophic/hospitalization coverage is still in place. Patients then portion out their annual membership fee for their own personal, concierge physician, who offers unlimited office visits, without additional copays.
Comprehensive Physical
Your yearly, comprehensive physical is vital for your health and wellness. While it allows us to follow ongoing, chronic medical conditions, it also is an opportunity to detect abnormalities early and even prevent disease.
Preventive Care
Have you heard that it is easier to prevent disease than it is to treat it? Preventive medicine involves a “whole body” approach to medicine, specifically, focusing on the whole patient and the many factors that play a role in their health.
Care Coordination
Your primary care physician is the “quarterback” of your health. Whenever you need to see a specialist, we seek out the best one for your specific needs and schedule the appointment on your behalf. We also “close the loop” and follow up with the specialist to solidify your medical plan of care.
