may arise with same or next-day appointments.
​
As a patient, your monthly fee covers unlimited physician visits and customary in-office procedures. This means we can meet as often as you need without worrying about fees or co-pays. When you call I will be the one answering the phone If you can't make it to the office, we can consult with you over the phone or with text or email, when appropriate. Video conferencing is also available for virtual visits.
At Direct Primary Care of Eugene, I do not bill insurance. I do encourage you to have insurance coverage for potential expenses like costly tests or unavoidable and unexpected healthcare situations. For your day-to-day medical needs, however, your membership here has you covered.
The direct primary care model of health care is all about providing patients access to effective, convenient, affordable health care from a caring professional without interference. What does this mean? It means your doctor is free to focus on you and your well-being rather than spending time satisfying an insurance company’s bottom line.
