About Dr. Fillnow

Dr. Fillnow provides direct primary care internal medicine at Sojourn Direct Primary Care in Charlotte, North Carolina. He earned his medical degree from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in 2008 and completed his internal medicine residency at the Medical University of South Carolina. He is a board-certified internal medicine physician.

He opened Sojourn Direct Primary Care in Charlotte on November 1, 2021, after about ten years practicing internal medicine at two other clinics. He says frustration with the limitations of traditional healthcare organizations, including the focus on billing and the typical seven-minute visit, led him to adopt a direct primary care model built around a central doctor-patient relationship. He has been named a Castle Connolly Top Doctor in Internal Medicine in Charlotte, NC, since 2024.
