Concierge-style or direct primary care is really a return to how medicine was practiced generations ago. It is an alternative to the insurance-controlled and frequently corporate-owned places of medical practice that exist in most of the country now. If this kind of direct care resonates with you, then you start with emailing me at clubpediatrics@gmail.com. I will send you more detailed information to ensure you feel informed. We will have a virtual or in-person meet-and-greet. Then, you start paying monthly or yearly for your age appropriate membership. In return, you have direct access to YOUR doctor for any pediatric concerns.

Direct Primary Care is a model of healthcare that focuses on the physician-patient relationship without the limitations of insurance or corporate regulation.

Yes. I recommend you still have insurance. Insurance is best used for specialist care, emergency care, surgeries, and hospitalizations. Most members choose either a high-deductible PPO plan or health share program. I recommend talking to your insurance agent for the best plan for you.

I strive to be an extension of your family. I offer more than once a year check-ups, and I think your family deserves more high-quality healthcare than that. I frequently hear families use their pediatrician for a 10 min annual check up, and use Urgent Care for all sick visits for convenience. While Urgent Care does have a purpose, your child will have better care from someone who knows them. Time and time again, I see kids fall through the cracks because of disjointed care and aggressive use of prescription medications. You will never have to worry about accessing me. You'll have my personal number!

Yes! I have the ability to spend 30-60 minutes with you and your child as often as you need. In the traditional system, I rarely got more than 10 minutes of face-to-face time to tackle medically complex children. That just isn't enough. I aim to be an advocate for your child in our rather daunting healthcare system, and I strive to personally know how all your child's specialists can come together to keep your little one as healthy and comfortable as possible.

I am an advocate for vaccines, and I vaccinate my own children per the CDC/AAP recommendations for routine vaccines. However, I do not require you to have your children vaccinated. I understand that my job is to give advice, and your job is to decide what is best for your children.

Yes! There are no hidden fees and for the payment of a Starbucks a day, you have a pediatrician in your pocket. It is rather like a gym membership with an expert personal trainer. In a traditional corporate medical practice, most families spend about $1000+ per year on top of their insurance premiums. This gets them a rushed 10 min check-up and 5-10 minute acute appointments in the middle of a jam-packed clinic. For a similar price, you get direct, unlimited access to YOUR doctor.

You can fill out the contact form on the website, or email me directly at clubpediatrics@gmail.com, and I will directly reach out to you to set up a meet-and-greet.

Yes. You can cancel your membership after giving a thirty day written notice.

I will offer one-time visits depending on schedule availability.

Yes! Large families only pay $500/month for their membership.

I will be in communication with you and your hospital doctor to ensure your child has continued expert care. I do not, however, take over the care of your child during an admission.

Yes! I am a board-certified and licensed general pediatrician. This means I graduated college, medical school, residency, and passed all the exams and certifications needed to be licensed in my profession and state of practice. I also continue with ongoing education to stay apprised of the ever-changing medical landscape.
