About Dr. Agricola

Dr. Agricola practices direct primary care internal medicine at Altucare Primary Medical Care in Newburgh, New York. She earned a bachelor's degree in pre-medical science and music from Columbia University and her medical degree from Yale School of Medicine. She completed a combined Internal Medicine-Pediatrics residency at the University of Rochester and is board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine and the American Board of Pediatrics. During that training, she co-founded the nonprofit KidsThrive585 to advance pediatric health advocacy and received the 2016 Med-Peds Program Directors Association Walter W. Tunnessen, Jr. Award for that work.

Dr. Agricola serves on the faculty of Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine's Primary Care department in Middletown, New York, and is the laboratory director for Altucare Primary Medical Care. She has said that direct primary care counters the power insurance companies hold as a medical authority and brings care back to the doctor and patient relationship.

The insurance company role somehow got very skewed to be a medical authority, and that's become a problem. DPC combats that, because it dissolves that power dynamic and brings it back again to the doctor and patient relationship.

I've had several appointments and had a great experience in each! 10/10

"As a self-employed individual who can't afford conventional insurance, I first thought Direct Primary Care was too good to be true. However, just in my first few months as a member, I've had several appointments and had a great experience in each! 10/10"

Being a member of Dr. Agricola's practice is inexpensive, yet she offers a level of care that is unrivaled elsewhere.

"Being a member of Dr. Agricola's practice is inexpensive, yet she offers a level of care that is unrivaled elsewhere. Altucare is an unbiased answer to care that focuses on the individual rather than the insurance provider, which I highly suggest!"

I have complete faith in her.

"I've been a member of Altucare for about 6 months and have no plans to return to a traditional primary care physician that accepts insurance. I have complete faith in her. I'd never go to anyone else!"
