My time as a physician has taken me through hospitals, emergency rooms, primary care clinics and nursing homes. After seeing how painful the process of getting in front of a doctor can be and often frustrating the system as a whole is, I decided to pivot towards a different type of practice. I wanted to removing middlemen, improving access and delaying the onset of disease through prevention. In modern health systems, very few people are fortunate enough to have someone they call “my doctor.” Complicated phone trees, rushed appointments, and rotating pools of doctors involved in your care lead to frustration and poor quality. Trust has eroded, and compassionate care has become increasingly difficult to find. We aim to bring that tradition back. By providing patients with their doctor’s direct line, urgent care visits become unnecessary. Care can be delivered based on patient convenience, specialists can be engaged when needed, but the primary doctor remains your primary point of contact, your trusted advocate and reliable resource in times of need.
