In a Direct Specialty Care practice, the doctor makes a commitment to limit the number of patients to ensure adequate time and availability for each patient, and to provide a more personalized and enhanced level of care. Rather than us charging the patient or insurance for each office visit, the patient pays a monthly membership fee.
The membership fee covers all interactions with the physician, including office visits, telehealth appointments, phone calls, and access to the physician after hours by text or call. Other benefits include less waiting time for appointments, same day or next day appointments, and a more personalized wellness planning. Having fewer patients allows the physician to have a more meaningful relationship with each patient and provide a more comprehensive care.
The current medical practice environment in our country has evolved to a model that pushes physicians to see a high quantity of patients in less time. This results in suboptimal quality of care. Physicians are also driven to extend themselves through physician assistants and/or nurse practitioners. Therefore, in many instances patients are no longer under the direct care of the physician. My desire is to practice patient-focused medicine and to be able to provide the highest quality of care to my patients.
