Benefits of Concierge Medicine at Phoenix Health Oasis
Concierge medicine offers a personalized and patient-centered approach to healthcare, delivering numerous advantages over traditional medical practices. At Phoenix Health Oasis, you’ll be under the expert care of Dr. Tommel Samani and Dr. Gewel De Los Santos, both board-certified Family Medicine physicians with a wealth of experience in treating a wide range of acute and chronic conditions.
Here are some key benefits of choosing concierge medicine with Dr. Samani and Dr. De Los Santos:
1. Enhanced Access to Your Physician
With concierge medicine, patients have direct access to their physician through phone, email, or text, often with same-day or next-day appointments. This ensures that your medical concerns are addressed promptly and efficiently.
2. Longer and More In-Depth Appointments
Unlike conventional medical practices where time is limited, concierge medicine allows for extended appointments, typically lasting 30-60 minutes compared to the average 15 minutes in traditional practices. This enables your physician to thoroughly discuss your health concerns, provide detailed explanations, and develop comprehensive care plans tailored to your needs.
3. Personalized and Preventative Care
Concierge medicine emphasizes preventative care and wellness. Your physician has the time to focus on early detection, personalized screenings, and lifestyle changes to prevent illness and optimize health.
4. Continuity of Care
Building a strong and lasting relationship with your physician is at the core of concierge medicine. This ongoing partnership helps your doctor understand your health history and preferences, ensuring consistent and effective care.
5. Comprehensive Management of Chronic Conditions
Patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes or hypertension benefit greatly from the tailored and continuous care concierge medicine offers. Physicians can closely monitor and adjust treatment plans to achieve optimal results.
6. Convenience and Efficiency
Concierge practices often have fewer patients, which translates to shorter wait times and a more streamlined experience. You’ll spend less time in the waiting room and more time receiving personalized attention from your physician.
7. Holistic Approach to Health
In concierge medicine, the focus extends beyond treating symptoms. Your physician considers all aspects of your health, including physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors, to support your overall well-being.
8. Coordination with Specialists
If specialized care is needed, concierge physicians often assist in coordinating and streamlining referrals to ensure seamless communication and collaboration with other healthcare providers.
This enhanced level of care is available through a membership-based model. The monthly membership fee is comparable to what many patients pay in co-pays, and importantly, health insurance is not required to become a member. This allows Dr. Samani and Dr. De Los Santos to dedicate their time and expertise to a smaller group of patients, ensuring personalized attention and comprehensive care.
