GET THE PROVIDER ATTENTION YOU DESERVE WITH
Direct primary care
For people with EDS and other chronic illness
Care for your chronic condition should be
Personalized. Prioritized.
Patient-focused.
Chronic pain is chronic. You can’t cure it in one quick appointment. And when your symptoms flare, you don’t want to wait weeks to be seen.
That’s why we offer direct primary care services for people with chronic conditions like Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome (EDS).
You get unrestricted access to a provider who knows and prioritizes your unique health all year long — for one flat, reliable monthly rate.
What is direct primary care?
AND HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM TRADITIONAL HEALTHCARE?
No one likes dealing with health insurance claims, do they? Not to mention the long wait times, rushed appointments, and complicated processes of traditional healthcare…
That’s why so many patients have turned to direct primary care (DPC).
Instead of billing third parties like insurance, DPC practices charge patients a simple, recurring fee that covers access to a wide range of services — no additional costs required. In return, you get easy access to your provider, highly personalized attention, and holistic, coordinated care that results in better outcomes.
