What is concierge medicine?

Concierge medicine is a personalized healthcare model where you pay an annual or monthly fee to have direct, 24/7 access to your physician. This approach allows more time with your doctor, same-day or next-day appointments, and a highly individualized care plan tailored to your needs.

How is concierge medicine different from traditional healthcare?

Unlike traditional practices where doctors may see dozens of patients a day, concierge medicine limits the number of patients per physician. This means more one-on-one time, better availability, longer appointments, and proactive, preventative care rather than rushed, reactive visits.

Who can benefit from concierge medicine?

Concierge medicine is ideal for anyone who values personalized care, but especially beneficial for individuals with chronic conditions, busy professionals who need flexible scheduling, and those who want a more holistic approach to maintaining their health.

Does concierge medicine replace insurance?

No — concierge medicine is not a replacement for health insurance. You still need insurance for hospitalizations, specialist visits, and emergencies. Concierge medicine complements your insurance by offering premium, highly-accessible primary care.

Is concierge medicine worth the cost?

For many, the value of concierge medicine comes from peace of mind, better health outcomes, and a stronger doctor-patient relationship. With longer visits, preventive focus, and quick access to your physician, it can save you time, stress, and even unnecessary hospital visits over time.
