Our Services

Concierge Medicine In Jacksonville. You're in Good Hands

We use a patient-centered strategy to healthcare, rather than the conventional one-size-fits-all insurance limited viewpoint.

As a board-certified Family Medicine physician I have experienced the decline in patient-doctor interaction and quality of care, we have gone from a relationship to only having a few minutes with our patients.

The concierge model eliminates the insurance confinements and allows us to focus on explaining, educating, counseling, and treating patients without time restraints. This translates to better health and longevity-allowing us to recognize and address minor problems before they have the opportunity to manifest as significant issues.

Primary Care

Patients are best served when their care is provided by an integrated practice care team led by a primary care physician. Health professionals work together as an interprofessional, interdependent team in patients' best interests to support comprehensive care delivery. A primary care physician is a specialist in family medicine, general internal medicine, or general pediatrics who provides definitive care to the undifferentiated patient at the point of first contact and takes continuing responsibility for providing the patient's comprehensive care.

Functional Medicine

Functional medicine asks how and why illness occurs and restores health by addressing the root causes of disease for each individual. It is an approach to patient care that views health and illness as part of a continuum in which all components of the human biological system interact dynamically with the environment, producing patterns and effects that change over time. Functional medicine may be described as the clinical application of systems biology. Chronic disease is usually preceded by a period of declining function in one or more of the body’s systems. Restoration of health requires improving the specific dysfunctions that have contributed to the disease state. Functional medicine provides tools and a reproducible method to enable clinicians to identify dysfunction and promote balance in physiology as the primary means of improving patient health.

Pellet Therapy

These factors can disrupt hormone levels, leading to a whole range of health issues. Introducing the EvexiPEL method - a game-changing bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) with pellets. This revolutionary approach optimizes hormones and tackles the symptoms of hormonal imbalance in both women and men.

You are also at an increased risk of disease.

LGBTQ+

It is important for LGBTQ+ individuals to have a primary care physician who they feel comfortable with and can ask honest questions about their health and well-being. Our concern is that patients often avoid or delay care due to fear of discrimination by healthcare providers. As your personal healthcare advocate, we recognize how important it is to understand lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning identities, experiences and relationships.

Your Health is Our Concern

House calls are available when appropriate. Some patients may not be able to visit us in the office due to severe illness or injury. House calls visits will be available after a virtual consultation at no additional cost. These visits will be scheduled on as needed basis depending on the severity of the case.

Why Us

Our Health Services are a Concierge Style

We believe a strong doctor-patient relationship and convenience of care are key to maintaining good health. Concierge medicine typically provides a level of access to your physician that is unachievable in a traditional doctor-patient arrangement. Concierge medicine allows your physician to significantly limit the number of patients they accept into their practice, which means increased availability and access for one-on-one healthcare. Concierge medicine helps form a personal bond between you and your physician. With more direct access, you’re likely to develop a more trusting and familiar relationship, which may make you more willing to follow recommendations for preventive care.

Serving You With Compassion

Over time I have witnessed a change in medicine that I am not proud of. When I signed up to run this marathon, I did it thinking of my future (of course) but also thinking about the positive changes I could make in my patients. I did not spend a third of my lifetime studying only to see insurance companies run all of our lives and limiting what is done. On top of all, we have employers pushing for more and shorter appointments. This makes our job virtually impossible, as there are many aspects to review in a very short period of time. I do not want to practice medicine under these conditions. I want to bring back the personalized true family/personal physician model where there is a true patient-doctor relationship.

Understanding What you Need

Maintain a small provider-patient ratio allows us to offer more convenient, patient-focused care. Our concierge model is a membership program where we do not accept health insurance, allowing us the freedom to operate without restrains/ limitations.

Testimonials

This is What Our Patients Say

Q&A

HSA/FSA OPTIONS

Health savings accounts (HSA) and flexible spending accounts (ESA)might cooperate with concierge care. Check with your plan provider, but medical services generally apply the same way that a copay or prescription at a traditional practice would. Some HSA and FSA plans reimburse for other services, like wellness visits, if you show receipts.

HOW OFTEN MAY I SEE THE DOCTOR AS A MEMBERSHIP PATIENT?

You may see the doctor in the office as many times as medically necessary as a membership patient of our practice. In addition, the doctor is available 24/7 via e-mail, text, and personal cell phone.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE MEMBERSHIP FEE?

Items such as laboratory tests, immunizations, diagnostic tests, hospitalizations, specialist visits, and medications are not covered by the membership fee. These services are usually covered by your health insurance plan. We do recommend everyone have health insurance as we are not a health insurance company.
