Our Services

Primary care focuses on general health management and prevention. At our primary care practice, we structure services to make sure that our patients are staying on top of any existing health issues, and staying ahead of any developing health issues. Unlike emergency or urgent care, primary care is designed to manage and encourage general health and wellness.

Acute and chronic disease management, yearly physicals, health assessments, reproductive healthcare, mental health screening, weight loss and weight management, and vision and hearing screenings are all provided within your membership fees. For a more comprehensive look at what is included, visit our membership page.

Although emergency medical care is important, it is equally vital to have a standing relationship with a healthcare team to measure ongoing issues and check in with each year. Prevention is an important part of maintaining health, and primary care services act as preventive medicine and long-term management in one convenient location.

At our Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice, we focus on providing ongoing healthcare to our patients for a simple monthly membership fee. This system allows our office to provide primary care services, including yearly physicals, ongoing or acute disease management, and reproductive health care without any surprise fees or insurance issues. At our office, you can expect to know where your money is going, what services are covered, and when to expect outbound referrals.

Physician’s Assistants (PAs) and Family Nurse Practitioners (FNPs) are often seen working in a primary care practice, but family medicine practitioners and pediatricians can also be common in a primary care setting. Our staff is headed by our Doctor of Medicine, Katherine Weeks, MD.

Primary care specialties include any areas of medicine that act as the first line of care. Obstetrics, geriatric care, pediatric care, and family medicine are all primary care specialties because they focus on the general health and ongoing health maintenance of a patient.

The frequency of your visits will depend on your health, age, and other factors. If our team is helping you manage ongoing health conditions or concerns, your visits will be more frequent. If your focus is primarily on preventive care and yearly checkups, you may not need as many visits. Regardless of your number of visits, the structure of our membership plans ensures that you are receiving a good return on your investment.

Primary care allows you to conduct an ongoing relationship with a medical team when you need a yearly check up, basic services, or other non-urgent and non-emergency services. When you have a question for a doctor, your primary care practice is the place to call. When you have the sniffles or a chronic ache or sensation of discomfort, primary care is likely the service you need to seek out. Primary care is the first line of defense against disease and declining health.

The patients seen in a primary care practice vary. Primary care can encompass all care that does not fall under the umbrella of “secondary care,” or urgent or emergency services. Primary care practices can see everyone, from infants to geriatric patients.
