The Way to Better Care
"Through the direct primary care model, Dr. Amy is able to offer high quality, patient-centered care at an affordable price." —IMOGENE
Direct Primary Care
In the traditional fee-for-service system, over half of medical costs go to insurance companies and middlemen, driving up prices and forcing providers to see more patients in less time. This leads to rushed visits, long waits, and patient dissatisfaction.
Direct Primary Care is an alternative to this dysfunctional system. With DPC, your care is not dictated by an insurance plan. We have time for wellness, not just problems. We get to know you, to help you live your healthiest life.
Patients are healthier because they have access to a doctor who knows them and who they trust.
DPC in the media:

- AP News: Direct primary care cuts out insurance companies. Could it gain traction under Trump?
- Wall Street Journal: With Direct Primary Care, It's Just Doctor and Patient

DPC does not replace insurance for emergencies and hospital-based care. In fact it is a good partner for plans that cover unpredictable, high-cost services.
DPC pairs well with:
High-deductible or catastrophic plans. Pay lower out-of-pocket costs for routine care.
Flexible Spending
or Health Savings Accounts. Use pre-tax funds for membership fees.
Health Shares. Join these not-for-profit groups and get coverage for high-cost services for lower cost than insurance plans.*
