The concierge model is the best way to return to the “good old days” of medicine, before insurance companies, administrators, and bureaucrats got in the way.

In the past, doctors knew their patients well and spent significant time with them during office visits. The pressures of insurance companies, hospital administrators, and government agencies have completely transformed this model. Now physicians see thousands of patients per year, spending just a few minutes with each of them, and often don’t get to know them very well. Small details are sometimes missed, and the focus is on dealing with acute problems rather than preventing future ones. 

In cardiology, the tiny details matter, and an effective prevention plan can add many healthy years to your life.

The concierge model allows doctors to focus on a small number of patients to provide a more personalized approach to heart health, with longer visits and deeper levels of coaching and engagement. This model ensures that patients receive not just immediate treatment for acute conditions, but also benefit from a comprehensive strategy focused on prevention and overall wellness. It is common for visits to last for an hour or more.

If you suffer from heart disease or have risk factors for developing heart disease – such as hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease – then you should strongly consider joining a concierge cardiology practice.
