Not just treating your symptoms when you’re sick.
Your personal wellness plan should be about your needs, your goals, your life.
After all, it’s your wellness journey, right? The challenge, of course, is getting people—like your primary care physician—to slow down long enough to really hear you when you explain what you’re looking for in a wellness plan.
The problem is time.
Quality time is at a premium for so many PCPs. That’s because they’re typically juggling between 1500-3000 patients. This averages to 30-50 patient visits per day, with some visits lasting no more than ten minutes. As for the substance of these visits? Due to time constraints, the focus is usually centered on sickness rather than long-term wellness.
In other words, spending time with patients when they’re healthy (in an effort to keep them healthy) is a luxury that many PCPs can’t afford.
There simply aren’t enough hours in the day. And so it goes with traditional healthcare. But there is another way. A BETTER way.
Say Hello to Direct Primary Care through Total Access Medical
Direct Primary Care through Total Access Medical is all about quality time. Time to treat patients when they’re sick. Time to work with patients when they’re well. Time to create carefully designed wellness plans. Time to answer questions, check in, and cheer on each and every patient—and not just once or twice a year, but as often as the patient needs.
Why do our concierge doctors have so much quality time to dedicate to these endeavors?
According to a 2012 article in the Annals of Family Medicine, the average primary-care physician juggles about 2,300 patients. Total Access Medical doctors are only permitted 600 patients per practice allowing them more time to focus on long-term wellness first, rather than sickness.
In an effort to make sure all of our patients take advantage of this quality time, we’ve created our Total Wellness Program, which comes standard with any Total Access Medical membership.
How Our Total Wellness Program Works
This program involves the creation of a personalized wellness plan designed by you and your doctor to fit your needs, your goals, your life.
Taking advantage of our Total Wellness Program is as easy as 1-2-3.
- Schedule a wellness visit with your concierge doctor. After you select one of our concierge doctors, you’ll schedule your first wellness visit, which lasts about two hours.
- Determine your baseline. During your wellness visit, you will go through a series of questions, tests, and panels so that your doctor can determine a baseline of where you are health wise.
- Develop your wellness plan. From there, you and your doctor will develop a personalized wellness plan designed with your specific needs in mind.
Depending on your specific goals, your doctor may suggest working with professionals from within our Total Wellness Network. These professionals include nutritionists, personal trainers, health coaches, and more.
Great Program. Great Value.
Creating a similar wellness program outside of the direct primary care medical model would require hundreds in out-of-pocket fees. Patients would have to individually seek out services. With Total Access Medical’s Total Wellness Program, patients only pay their annual fee.
With our Total Wellness Program, you don’t pay a penny extra.
Your membership fee covers your personal wellness program, including:
- Initial wellness screening
- Your total wellness program, designed by your doctor around your unique health profile
- Four complimentary sessions with a health specialist in our Total Wellness Network and discounted rates for continuing service from these providers
- Check-ins and consultations with your personal doctor
