What is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a nation-wide movement of Primary Care doctors who have disembarked from the insurance companies and their assembly-line model of medicine in favor of re-establishing the patient-doctor relationship. We operate on a monthly membership fee, which allows patients to receive unlimited office visits and technology visits (email, cell phone/text messages). At Roark Family Health, DPC means you spend more time with your doctor, building a much closer patient/doctor relationship. Dr. Roark is able to spend more time with her patients and generally guarantees appointments within 24 hours. Our membership-based approach to routine and preventive care can significantly reduces health care costs.
