What’s Wrong With Our Current Healthcare System?

If you are like most patients across the United States, you are probably wondering when medical care became so time consuming. Why do patients have to block off an entire day in order to fit in a routine examination? Patients should not be calling their doctor’s office, only to learn that the next available appointment is not for six months. Patients should not be forced to wait by the phone, hoping that someone cancels, so that they can get an appointment within a reasonable amount of time, nor should they be hurried out of their visits without the opportunity to ask crucial questions about their medical care. If you’re one of the patients who has felt this way, it is likely because your doctor is one of the many overbooked primary care providers. A Concierge doctor eliminates the need to chase your doctor and try to fit yourself into his or her already overbooked schedule.
