Direct Primary Care

Healthcare without the middleman.

No insurance billing. No rushed appointments. No surprise bills. Just a flat monthly fee and a doctor who actually has time for you — the way primary care was always meant to be.

The problem

Modern primary care wasn't built for you.

7 min
The average doctor visit

Rushed appointments leave no time to dig into root causes. You're a number on a schedule, in and out before you've finished your first sentence.

2,500+
Patients per physician

Conventional practices pack thousands of patients onto every doctor to stay afloat. Your provider literally cannot know you.

26 days
Average wait for an appointment

When you're sick now, weeks-long waits push you to urgent care or the ER — more cost, less continuity.

$$$
Surprise bills, every time

Copays, deductibles, coding games, and statements that arrive months later. You never know what care will actually cost.

The solution

So, what is direct primary care?

Direct primary care (DPC) cuts out the insurance middleman entirely. Instead of billing your insurance for every visit, you pay your doctor a simple, flat monthly membership — and in return you get unlimited access to them.

Because we don't answer to insurance companies, we don't need thousands of patients or seven-minute visits to keep the lights on. We keep our panels small on purpose. That means same- or next-day appointments, visits that last as long as they need to, and a provider who actually knows your name and your history. No copays. No coding games. No surprise bills. Just you and your doctor, the way it should be.

The Keystone difference

DPC, with a naturopathic soul.

Most DPC practices simply give you more time with a conventional doctor. We go further. Our providers are trained to look at the whole picture — treating root causes, not just symptoms, and blending evidence-based medicine with naturopathic care.

Root-cause focus

We dig into the why behind your symptoms — nutrition, lifestyle, labs, and metabolic health — instead of reaching straight for a prescription.

Whole-person care

Naturopathic and conventional approaches, working together. You get the best of both, tailored to your body and your goals.

Time to go deep

Unhurried visits mean we can actually pursue the kind of proactive, preventive care that conventional medicine never has time for.

Common questions

Is DPC right for me?

Is this a good fit if I'm generally healthy?

Absolutely. DPC shines for prevention — catching issues early, optimizing your labs, and building healthy habits before problems start. Healthy members get the most out of the unlimited access and included annual panel.

What if I have a chronic condition?

DPC is ideal for chronic care. More time and direct access mean your provider can actively manage conditions like diabetes, thyroid, or hypertension — with the root-cause approach conventional 7-minute visits can't offer.

Is membership worth it if I rarely go to the doctor?

Many members tell us they finally use their doctor *because* there's no per-visit cost or hassle. Between the included 50+ marker annual labs and direct text access, the value is there even for infrequent visits.

How do I get started?

It starts with a 60-minute new patient visit where we get to know you and build your plan. From there you choose the membership that fits your household. Simple, transparent, no pressure.
