In today’s fast-paced healthcare system, many parents feel like they’re being rushed in and out of appointments, with little time to truly connect with their child’s doctor. At our practice, we believe families deserve better. That’s why we’ve embraced the Direct Primary Care (DPC) model for pediatrics—a simple, personal, and community-focused approach that puts your child’s well-being first.
What is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care is a membership-based model where families pay a flat monthly fee for unlimited access to their pediatrician. No copays, no surprise bills—just a direct relationship with your child’s doctor.
With DPC, you get:
Same-day or next-day appointments
Longer visits—time to ask every question without feeling rushed
Direct communication with your pediatrician via text, phone, or email
A focus on wellness and prevention, not just “sick care”
Why It’s Great for Local Families
Because we’re local, we know the community, the schools, and the unique challenges our kids face. We can recommend trusted local specialists, understand seasonal trends in illness, and be available when you need us most—without the long wait times of big-box healthcare.
Personalized Care for Every Child
We believe that every child deserves compassionate, judgment-free medical care. We welcome all families, including those who follow alternative vaccine schedules or choose not to vaccinate. Our role as your pediatrician is to partner with you, provide education, and support your family’s choices while keeping your child healthy and thriving.
The Bottom Line
Direct Primary Care in pediatrics is about time, trust, and accessibility. It’s about having a doctor who knows your child by name, not by a chart number. And it’s about making sure your family feels heard, respected, and cared for—right here in your own community.
