"Once upon a time, doctors were on call 24 hours a day. If someone came down with a fever, ailment, or serious injury, a doctor could be summoned immediately. Today’s medical care is very different and less personal, but some practices are trying to change that reality. By offering services from a concierge medicine doctor, the Longevity Health Institute is establishing a new kind of health care, in conjunction with the benefits of personalized medicine, functional medicine, and preventive medicine.

Concierge medicine may seem like the kind of service that is accessible to only the elite, but the offerings of a concierge medicine doctor are more affordable than you may think. It isn’t necessary to select every available concierge service. Medical practices that offer concierge medicine provide personalized, immediate, thorough health care when it is needed most. Different cost options are available for different levels of care, so nearly anyone can find a niche.

Some individuals balk at the idea of paying a retainer for ongoing medical care when their health insurance gets them “good enough” care. But it’s perfectly natural to want to elevate your level of health care, especially if you have a chronic condition or serious illness. People who have a high-deductible insurance plan

Even the healthiest of patients see a great benefit in concierge medicine: After all, if you visit a doctor regularly and receive exceptional, personalized care anytime you need it, your health will be better. Your medical bills will go down by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, not getting sick, not having flare-ups, and not developing new health problems."
