direct care podiatry

Being a direct care podiatry practice means we do not allow insurance companies to interfere with patient care. We often see patients that have insurance but we are out of network which means all fees are paid directly by the patient.

Eliminating insurance allows us to concentrate on the doctor-patient relationship. Patients have direct access to the doctor, the doctor can be seen within 24 hours, there are no wait times in the office, patients can spend up to an hour with the doctor and there will never be a surprise bill. Direct care medicine respects the patient’s needs and time. This is medicine as it should be.
