Primary Care Built Around You, As an Individual

Built to be different, built for better care

I designed Nexus Primary Care to center the needs of patients, not insurance companies. With Direct Primary Care, visits are covered by your monthly membership fee. This means that we can keep the practice small, so I can spend more time with patients, focus on your specific needs, be available to you directly via phone or text, and personalize care to be most impactful to your health.

Another Real-World Example of Saving Money with DPC

Last week I had a new patient who came to me from a traditional insurance-based practice. She was tired of not being able to get through to her physician, and having to wait months for an appointment — the typical reasons people check out Direct Primary Care (DPC) practices like Nexus Primary Care.

Spending $150 per month on a doctor was a tough choice for her. By the end of the visit, she was only spending $50 net per month. And it wasn’t because she talked me into giving her a big discount. How did we accomplish this?

Personalized Primary Care for Everyone

Including Patients with Complex Needs

15 minutes isn’t much time. But that’s how long you get with a typical primary care appointment. So what happens when you need to really talk through next steps?

ADHD Diagnosis and Management

One of the more frequent reasons people come see me is to help them manage a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of ADHD. I get patients of all ages looking for ADHD support. I find treating ADHD really satisfying. People do so well once they are on medication. It can be life-changing! Very often, other symptoms of depression and anxiety clear up as everything becomes easier and more satisfying.

Mindful Meditation

A few years ago, I discovered the concept of meditation, and it’s changed my life. I think it’s essential for almost everyone to learn this skill, and I try to work it into almost every treatment plan I help a patient create.

The reason meditation is so important is that it helps us understand what’s going on in our brains. If you don’t know what’s happening in your brain, you’ll have a hard time managing all kinds of problems.
