Personal Statement
Imagine a medical experience where your doctor personally knows you and has the time to address your unique health needs fully. That vision fueled my education and training. When I began that journey, I aspired to be a neighborhood family doctor, embodying the values of connection and personalized care. Sadly, I learned along the way that these were lost in the modern, rushed healthcare experience.
In 2011, I brought my naive vision to life by founding NeuCare, one of the nation’s first Direct Primary Care (DPC) practices. We recognized that delivering great care begins with eliminating unnecessary complexity associated with traditional medical care. By establishing a direct-to-patient model, we have provided affordable, high-quality primary care to thousands in our community.
At NeuCare, our commitment to innovation is driven by our dedication to delivering exceptional patient care and experiences. We will continue challenging the status quo because better health care should be a standard, not a privilege.
