"After twenty-five years of medical practice in multiple settings, I decided that I needed to rebuild my practice to meet the needs of my patients, not the business aspect of the healthcare industry. I began this new practice in January 2001. In this model, medical decisions are based upon your health and well being not the “bottom-line” of an insurance company. For an annual fee, you will receive my complete medical supervision and comprehensive primary care -such as yearly physical exams, X-rays taken at the office, routine gynecological care and lab tests performed in my office. I will also provide a full range of other medical services not usually covered by insurance contracts, including health information updates and coordination of consultative services. This practice also includes: An experienced physician and well-respected staff committed to a high level of care and service Unlimited physician availability-including consultation and after hours emergencies Patients seen on-time and in an unhurried atmosphere No bills for medical services, no deductibles, no hassle Human beings answering the telephone Communication via telephone, fax and e-mail 24-hours a day Outside of my office, you will still need medical insurance for emergency room visits, hospitalization, specialists, prescriptions and tests not covered in my plan. I recommend that you review your current plan to see how it will fit with mine. It is very likely that you will require less comprehensive insurance coverage, which should lower monthly premiums for you. It is my intent to provide you with a unique combination of medical care and personal service rarely seen these days. To meet the points outlined above means a much smaller practice with a limited number of patients."
