Hearthstone Family Medicine

Hearthstone Family Medicine I offer same day appointments, unrushed visits, and steeply discounted laboratory testing. This is a direct primary care practice.

Doctor Cindy Richards opened Hearthstone Family Medicine in May 2018 in order to provide quality primary care focused on listening and caring for the whole person.

Please get your flu shots soon! We may have an early flu season, and it could be a bad one.

In 2017, a terrible flu season in Australia presaged an American outbreak in which 79,000 died. Experts advise getting the shot soon.

Affordable care, better patient experiences, better patient outcomes, and physician well-being: the quadruple aim. And this is exactly what direct primary care provides.

Allison Edwards, M.D., writes in this Fresh Perspectives blog post that the limitations of the 12-minute patient visits she experienced as a resident inspired her to start her own direct primary care practice.

Direct Primary Care

I grew up in Charlottesville, and am excited to offer direct primary care to Greene County and the surrounding area. For a simple monthly “membership” fee, patients have direct access to their personal doctor (not a mid-level provider), unlimited office visits, unhurried appointments without long wait times, transparent pricing, and access to the most affordable lab testing available in our area. I am happy to see children and adults of all ages. Our simple price structure is: $70/month for adults and $30/month for children under age 18 (discounted to $15/month if accompanied by an adult member), or $125/month per adult couple. Patients can use insurance to pay for imaging, lab work, specialist referrals if needed. Membership fees may be reimburseable by FSA programs and some health plans.

I offer 17 years of clinical experience as a board certified family physician. After graduating from medical school at the University of Virginia in 1998, I completed residency in Family Medicine at Valley Medical Center with the University of Washington. I returned east to practice in a medically underserved area of western North Carolina for 8 years before moving home to Charlottesville to be closer to family. I have worked with a terrific team of doctors at Sentara Forest Lakes Family Medicine since 2009. Now I am ready to “go back in time” to more personalized, old fashioned medicine where the doctor has time to listen and heal, and not be drowned by the demands of larger, corporate entities. Instead of spending time selecting diagnostic codes and filing claims, I have time to research clinical problems, communicate with specialists, and talk directly with my patients. Please contact our office anytime to schedule a free “meet and greet” to see if my practice can meet your needs.
