Benefits of DPC
At the heart of Direct Primary Care is the relationship between you and your physician.
At Wild Woman Wellness, this means you get:
Direct access to Dr. Dacker, 8 am – 8 pm Pacific Time
Longer appointment times, such as 90-minute annual wellness exams
Appointments as often as needed
A focus on preventative and proactive wellness
A physician who knows you, as a whole person, and your health needs and goals
Coordination of care with specialists
Urgent care services for illness or injuries
As a DPC practice, we do not bill insurance, and instead charge a monthly membership fee. We think not billing insurance for primary care services is actually a plus:
There are no other co-pays or additional fees for appointments.
The membership model allows us to keep the practice small in order to focus on patient care.
The insurance rules of requiring in-person appointments don’t apply, so we can offer more services to patients virtually.
We aren’t limited to the standard insurance appointment 15- or 30-minute appointments.
Your insurance can still be used to cover all the other medical services you are accustomed to: labs, prescriptions, imaging, specialists, hospitalizations, etc.
