Metrowest, get ready to experience enhanced healthcare! I am Dr. Samantha Mekrut, a board-certified family physician, and I am thrilled to announce the opening of my Direct Primary Care office in Medfield, Massachusetts next month. Through this newsletter, I’ll bring you the latest health updates, practical wellness tips, and inspiration to help you take meaningful steps toward holistic well-being. This week, we're demystifying Direct Primary Care!
What is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care, or DPC, is a membership model of healthcare that puts patients first by giving them easier access to their physician. In DPC practices, doctors work directly for their patients, providing personalized care and ample time during appointments. Patients pay an affordable monthly fee, which grants them direct access to extended in-person visits, phone calls, video consultations, and direct messaging. There are no co-pays, deductibles, or surprise bills. Typically, you will be able to book same-day or next-day appointments.
What are the Benefits of DPC Compared to Insurance-Based Primary Care?
Same or Next-Day Appointments: Get the care you need when you need it. No more waiting for months to get an appointment!
See Your Doctor, Not a Covering Provider: Build a relationship with your dedicated physician.
Direct Access to Your Doctor: Connect via phone, text, and telehealth visits.
Discounts on Lab Work: Benefit from wholesale rates
Care Personalized to You: Enjoy healthcare tailored to your unique needs.
We're Opening Soon!
Stay tuned for the grand opening of Meristem Family Medicine next month. We're excited to partner with you in achieving your health goals. Look out for updates and exclusive offers in our upcoming newsletter.
Healthfully Yours,
Dr. Sam Samantha Mekrut, MD FAAFP Physician and founder of Meristem Family Medicine
