About Dr. Pennington

Dr. Pennington received her medical degree from the Medical University of South Carolina in 1991. She completed a family medicine residency at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center in 1994. She is board certified in family medicine.

In 2016 she founded Pennington Primary Care, a direct primary care practice that opened its doors in January 2017. She started the practice after practicing in a large corporate environment for many years, wanting a doctor-patient relationship with adequate time for each patient and without interference from third parties and administrators. The practice combines direct primary care with concierge medicine, charging a flat monthly membership instead of billing insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. Pennington Primary Care offers general health care, prevention and wellness, minor ambulatory procedures, gynecology, family planning, chronic disease management, and work, school, and sports exams. Dr. Pennington has served on several local boards and remains active in the Rock Hill community. She has also discussed direct primary care on WRHI Radio in Rock Hill.
