Most modern-day healthcare practices aren’t known for their service. Many doctors’ offices have full schedules and getting an appointment when you need it can be difficult.
The traditional healthcare’s failings have led many people to turn to alternatives that can give their body the care they need to feel their best. An Optimal You strives to ensure all our patients get what they need to feel the best they can. From hormone supplements to ozone therapy, our team wants to make sure patients are happy and healthy.
We are care providers who actually care about optimizing your health rather than only caring about you if you fall ill. Call An Optimal You at (951) 225-1792 today!
What Is Concierge Medicine?
Also known as boutique care, concierge care, direct primary care, and platinum practice, concierge medicine is a membership-based care plan that focuses on making personalized care convenient. Patients choose between an annual fee or a flat monthly or quarterly fee, and in return they receive personalized care with quick and direct access to the staff and the doctor. No more waiting weeks for an appointment or being told that you can only talk about one problem per office visit. Under the concierge plan, all your needs are addressed–including hormone balancing.
The thing that makes this form of care so appealing is the fact that insurance companies do not come between you and your care.
What Makes Concierge Medicine Better Than Traditional Care?
A typical patient in a large metropolitan area waits an average of 24 days just to see their primary physician. No one should have to wait that long for the care that they need now.
The experience in these traditional healthcare offices also do not get much better. You wait in a waiting room for a long time, only to be moved to a screening room to wait even longer for the doctor to actually see you. Then it take weeks on end for you to get the results for the screenings and tests that you paid for. Even after you get them back, there is a chance that the results will be inconclusive. All this time wasted leaves you infuriated.
Concierge medicine addresses many of the issues patients’ experience at the doctor’s office. Many doctors with a concierge medicine plan keep their patient panel smaller, making it easier to schedule appointments and reduces wait times in the office.
An Optimal You offers a concierge medicine plan to a limited number of our patients. Our doctors can focus on the care that you need, helping you both feel better in the moment and improve your overall health in the long run.
The Benefits Of Concierge Medicine
One of the benefits of being under a concierge physician’s care is that a doctor can spend more time with you. Patients under a concierge medicine plan are able to spend upwards of 30 minutes with their physician during a visit, allowing the doctor to full understand the issues the patient is dealing with and get them the help they need. Many traditional practices do not spend enough time with the patient, but concierge medicine makes sure the doctor can get patients the help they need.
Another huge benefit is the direct access patients have to their doctor. Concierge medicine patients get a direct line of communication to their provider, so they are not left waiting anxiously for their next appointment. We all know the stress that new symptoms arising directly after a doctor’s visit create. But with concierge medicine, you can just call up your doctor and get the information you are looking for, no extra visit or stress needed.
