Expert Endocrine and Wellness Care FAQ

What is direct care?

Direct care is a simple, patient-focused approach to healthcare that enables personalized, unhurried access to your physician.

This often includes visits, messaging your doctor directly, or getting same-day appointments in return for a fee paid directly to the doctor. You are billed annually, monthly, or per visit—your choice.

Unlike traditional insurance-based models, direct care cuts out the middleman (insurance companies), so there’s less paperwork and fewer hassles. It’s not insurance itself—it’s about covering your needs, like managing chronic conditions or handling minor emergencies.

The goal? A stronger, more direct relationship between you and your doctor, with transparent pricing and care that’s tailored to you.
