Direct Care

Direct care means receiving high-quality, personalized healthcare directly from a physician, without the need for insurance. You pay a fee for the services you receive, allowing your physician to focus solely on your health, rather than administrative work. This model is gaining popularity among those who want to proactively manage their health, rather than merely treating diseases.

The current American healthcare insurance system often presents challenges in adequately compensating physicians, necessitating an increase in patient volume. However, this can hinder our ability to provide the level of care you deserve. If your insurance plan has high specialist co-pays, deductibles, or care restrictions, choosing the direct pay route is typically more convenient and results in significantly lower cumulative out-of-pocket expenses.

Cancellation/ no-show policy:

​

To secure a new patient consultation, a $100 deposit is required at the time of scheduling. This deposit will be credited toward the consultation fee on your appointment day. Please be aware that we have a 48-hour cancellation policy for new patient consultations. If you cancel your appointment with less than 48 hours' notice or do not attend the scheduled appointment, the deposit will be designated as the late cancellation/no-show fee.

​

The cancellation/no-show fee for follow-up visits is $75 in case of appointment cancellation with less than 48 hours notice or failure to attend the scheduled appointment.
