Freedom Doctors -Direct Primary Care
Primary Care done a little different.
What is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a new approach to Primary Care that seeks to bring the physician-patient relationship back to its core. Imagine a doctor who actually has the time to get to know you and become a trusted resource to your family, understand your health goals and help you achieve them.
In following with our model of transparency in pricing our patients pay a low monthly membership fee in exchange for direct access to their doctor.
No patient wants to be just another rushed 10 minute appointment. By limiting the number of patients on each doctor’s panel to <500, the doctor is able to spend more quality time with patients, it’s a win-win. If you or your loved one gets sick don’t stress we will work to see you in the same day or next day, this includes phone/video appointments if needed. By limiting the number of patients we don’t have to sacrifice quality of care.
Fast Direct Access to Your Doctor!
Unlimited visits, no copays, free telemedicine, free procedures, wholesale labs (up to 95% off) are all some of the mind blowing benefits of DPC.
Freedom Doctors has opted not to accept insurance because it causes unnecessary barriers on the doctor-patient relationship. Typical insurance-driven care is inherently not user-friendly. Our goal through our concierge style, Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice is to recenter the relationship between the doctor and patient, no middlemen involved.

Yes. Insurance is recommended and/or required in many states. Think “catastrophic medical coverage”. It is important to note, though, that the direct primary care model is not insurance and does not meet the criteria for insurance as set forth in the Affordable Care Act.
