CLINICAL STANDARD

Questions, often asked.

On the practice, membership, and what medicine demands — plainly answered.

On Joining

Who It's For

Patients who want one physician, across years — not across visits. Complex decisions go to the board. Built for long-term care, not episodic.

Many of our patients are healthy — they come for evaluation and plans to stay well. Preventive medicine takes time. That's what we're built for.

No referral required. Patients apply directly — many come recommended. Every application reviewed the same way, regardless of how you arrived.

Patients fine in fifteen-minute visits. Those who prefer rotating specialists. If standard primary care works, Medic is an unnecessary expense.

Practical Details

A long first visit — sixty to ninety minutes: your history reviewed, tests if needed, mostly listening. You leave with a plan and a direct line.

Directly. Every patient has a line to their physician — not the front desk. Email, phone, or patient portal — answered same day, urgent, faster.

First visits sixty to ninety minutes, follow-ups thirty to forty-five, complex longer. We schedule to the case, not the calendar — no extra charge.

Telemedicine, yes — for follow-ups, quick questions and check-ins. First visits and complex cases, in-person. House calls when genuinely needed.

Membership & Pricing

Annual fees depend on care level — published in application materials, not online. Applicants receive a transparent quote before any commitment.

Unlimited appointments, direct access, annual evaluation, board review — included. Labs, imaging, procedures billed separately or via insurance.

Yes — for medical services. Visits, procedures, labs, imaging billed through major insurance. Membership is direct-pay. We verify your coverage.

HSA/FSA cover membership and out-of-pocket — check with your plan. Insurance handles billing directly. We provide statements for reimbursement.

When It Matters

We refer to people we'd send our own families to — not the next name on a list. Your physician arranges, stays involved. We coordinate the care.

Life-threatening emergencies: call 911. For urgent non-emergency concerns, your physician is reachable by direct line, after hours and weekends.

Yes — coordination is part of what we do. Your physician communicates with other doctors, reviews reports and advocates during hospitalizations.

Membership travels — telemedicine from anywhere. In-person care while traveling: vetted colleagues. Move? We transition to someone we vouch for.
