Concierge Medicine = Better Care

Concierge Medical Care

Concierge medicine used to be a way for the privileged to secure the services of a private physician by agreeing to keep that provider on retainer. Now, anyone can feel “privileged” to say they have their own, exclusive medical home. Concierge medicine is not only more affordable than ever (a fraction of what private insurance costs), but it also feels more authentic and has better outcomes! If you’ve ever waited for hours on an answering service to never get a call back, sat in lobbies endlessly for appointments with providers you’ve never seen and will never see again, or worse, had health issues go unaddressed because a provider is too busy, you know that traditional medical offices leave much to be desired. Concierge medicine is the answer to that: providers who care, schedules built to ensure REAL conversations and easy access to people who genuinely want to help YOU!
