What concierge medicine generally costs

Is concierge medicine worth it?
Membership is $3,500 for the first year and $3,000 annually thereafter. The trade is same-day access, longer visits, and a doctor who personally coordinates your care, versus a 15-minute appointment booked three weeks out at a typical practice. For patients with complex conditions, families managing multiple specialists, or anyone who has spent hours chasing test results, the math usually pencils out.
For a healthy adult who sees their primary care doctor once a year for a flu shot, concierge medicine may not be the right fit, and we’ll tell you that in the consultation if that is the honest answer.
