Transforming Primary Care

Welcome to Highlands Direct Primary Care, a primary care practice dedicated to providing comprehensive and personalized care. As advocates for preventive medicine, we emphasize the importance of getting to know you as an individual and working together to create a plan for your wellness that works for you. By integrating evidence-based medicine and innovation, we strive to empower you to take control of your health and optimize your quality of life. Our practice offers a wide range of services, including preventive care, chronic disease management, acute illness treatment, health education, in-house procedures, and other wellness services.

At Highlands DPC, we understand the importance of continuity of care. With virtual access to our physicians via phone or email, you can reach out to us whenever you need medical advice or have urgent concerns. We invite you to experience a new level of healthcare at Highlands Direct Primary Care!

Why We Do It

As providers and consumers of healthcare, we see the flaws in the system first-hand. From waiting months for an appointment, seeing a rotating cast of "providers,” having rushed and impersonal care during too-brief visits, to not even seeing a physician at all; both patients and physicians bear the costs of the way healthcare is delivered. This is not to mention those who avoid seeking medical care altogether due to fear of what it will cost. During our training at a large regional hospital, we cared for countless patients who were hospitalized for problems that could have been prevented with quality primary care. 

At Highlands Direct Primary Care, we aim to be part of the solution. We believe that the relationship between patient and primary care physician should be the pillar of healthcare, rather than between patient and a corporate entity or insurance company. We spend time with you and get to know you, your history, and your goals for the future. We work hard to negotiate the most affordable prices for labs, imaging, procedures, and medications. And we do it because access to high-quality, affordable healthcare is essential for living a healthy life. 

What We Do

At Highlands Direct Primary Care, we put patients first and cut the middlemen out of the equation to save you money and time. By charging a flat monthly fee inclusive of all visits, electronic communications with your doctor, free or discounted procedures, in-office testing, and care coordination with specialists, we are able to meet all of your primary care needs without involving the “third parties” that artificially drive up the cost of routine healthcare. Our unique partnerships with pharmacies, imaging centers, and laboratories allow us to save you money without charging your insurance.

As a physician-led practice, Highlands DPC provides enhanced access to your physician and high quality of care, with 100% price transparency every step of the way. We ensure that you receive unhurried and personalized attention during your visits. With extended visit times, flexible appointment scheduling, and convenient virtual communication options, we make healthcare accessible and convenient for you.
