Most of what moves a patient’s numbers happens between visits.
A simulation study in the Journal of General Internal Medicine estimated that a primary care physician would need 26.7 hours a day to deliver every guideline-recommended service to a typical 2,500-patient panel alone. With team-based care, that estimate falls to 9.3 hours.
A concierge wellness partner works to close the gap in carrying out your clinical decisions.
Here’s what that looks like with Sandra, our functional nutritionist:
→ You set the diagnosis, the targets, and the medications. We don’t change them.
→ Sandra turns your nutrition recommendations into a plan the patient follows day to day: meals, grocery decisions, and the real-life questions that don’t fit in a standard visit.
→ Patients get more frequent check-ins than an office schedule can offer.
→ You get structured progress notes back, so the next visit starts with data instead of the patient’s memory.
→ A new symptom or a lab that looks off comes straight back to you.
What we don’t do: diagnose, prescribe, or replace your care. We help your plan get followed.
