  • While all people can reap the benefits of the concierge model, this model especially makes sense for seniors, people who are self-employed, or those with a chronic disease or complex medical needs. Our practice model also benefits patients who travel often, as they are able to set up a virtual visit from wherever their work or personal travels take them.

  • Our doctors are associated with both of our local hospital systems. We can refer you to the best specialists within these health systems, as we are not bound by in-network referrals. If you need specialty care, your doctor will communicate directly with your specialists and advocate for you. We are dedicated to helping you get seen quickly and managing your care as a central point of contact.

Additionally, our doctors will be covered by another physician in the practice when they are out of town.

Insurance

  • Most insurance plans do not cover this cost, but we recommend checking with your individual insurance company to confirm. Certain plans, such as HSAs and FSAs, may be used to cover the membership fee.

  • We do not participate in any commercial or employer-sponsored insurance plans, nor do we participate in Medicare. The membership fee is out-of-pocket and covers the cost of the annual executive physical, all office visits, and any routine services available in the office.
