Concierge medicine membership programs are popping up all over the country – and for good reason. These programs offer patients dedicated access to their physician and care that you can’t get in a normal primary care office.
Dr. Jeff Toll offers concierge medicine as part of his Gold Membership program. He’s an experienced and compassionate internal medicine specialist who provides telemedicine, chronic care management, and weight-loss assistance at his practice in Los Angeles, California.
Concierge medicine is a branch of medicine that offers personalized care for a monthly fee. The membership includes many perks, such as same-day appointments, longer appointment times, and direct access to a care team via email, text, or calls.
The cost of the membership doesn’t include everything in medicine. For example, it may not cover ambulance rides, hospital stays, or specialist fees. But it does offer you a way to avoid the long waits and uncertainty of a primary care office with a small fee attached.
A concierge medicine benefit program offers many perks – but it’s OK to be skeptical. At his practice, Dr. Toll prides himself on offering the following benefits to members of his concierge medicine program:
It’s difficult to get into a normal primary care office without waiting several weeks or even months. With a concierge medicine membership, you have unlimited access to our team 24/7 through email, texts, and telemedicine.
Coordinating your care from one specialist to another is difficult on your own – but we can help. Our membership program allows Dr. Toll to coordinate care with any other specialist you need for seamless health care.
At a normal doctor’s office, you’re just a number – meaning your treatments aren’t unique to your needs. Concierge medicine treats each patient individually, enabling better outcomes and specialized care.
It can take months to get a referral for a specialist, and most people don’t want to wait that long. Our membership gets you faster specialist referrals so you can start feeling better faster.
Home visits are crucial when you’re dealing with a chronic illness or simply can’t leave the house. Our program allows for several home visits and coordinated care to ensure you get what your body needs.
A membership program is typically on the smaller side, meaning Dr. Toll has more time to learn about you, your family, and your health needs. You get a stronger relationship with our team, which helps us treat you more efficiently.
Not only do we offer normal health treatments, but we also focus on the holistic aspect of care. This means health and wellness coaching and advanced testing to help you look and feel your best.
It’s tough to get the care you need in an office that rushes you through. At our practice, our membership program allows you to take the time you need with Dr. Toll to discuss your health and anything that’s on your mind.
Because they don’t have to see the 25-30 patients a day that doctors in traditional medical practices do, concierge doctors say they are more relaxed, which can lead to better focus on patients.
Preventive care is the way to slow disease progression or prevent chronic health issues. We offer personalized preventive care to keep your body and mind as healthy as possible.
