Primary Care Part Three: The Benefits of Primary Care
As two primary care doctors with a collective 75 years of experience, we understand the benefits of having a primary care doctor who develops strong relationships built on trust, who customizes care to each patient, who takes a patient-centric and whole-person view of care, and who is critical thinker looking beyond the protocols and drug-company dictated "truths." Multiple studies have shown that in areas with more primary care providers outcomes are better, people live longer, costs are lower, and patients are happier. That is because we're not paid for doing things to you--tests, procedures, drugs--but rather are paid to take care of you. We talk about how a primary care system would work.
