⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2025 Year in Review. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We’re so grateful for every one of you who’s had a part in our 2025. You are our focus!

We’re hearing from more and more people who are planning to go uninsured this year due to steep insurance premium increases.

📣If you’re going uninsured this year, you don’t have to go without care.📣

Direct Primary Care can be the safety net for your everyday health.

Direct Primary Care = ongoing medical care, prevention, same-day access, and real human connection… without the need for insurance.

Whatever your situation - you still deserve primary care.

(And yes, we still recommend catastrophic coverage for the truly unexpected - if at all possible.)

Smart care + Smart planning = Peace of mind

✨Merry Christmas 2025 from my family to yours! ✨

We have so much to celebrate this season as a family! Not the least of which is being a part of this medical practice where we are focusing on driving real healthy change, one person at a time. The honor is mine!

This Christmas season we recognize there can be a mix of magic and of pain, depending on the person and their particular story. And yet, we are encouraged by the birth of the baby King, who can bring beauty from ashes. He is Emmanuel, God with us.

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭6‬

Coverage doesn’t mean care.

We’re taught to believe that having insurance = being taken care of… but after high premiums, copays and deductibles, there’s still no guarantee your services will be covered - or that the care you get will be timely, personal, or high-quality.

While it’s a good idea to have some level of health insurance as a safety net for catastrophic events, it doesn’t guarantee you’ll get health CARE.

Direct Primary Care changes the equation and sets things in your favor.

No surprise bills.
No barriers between you and your provider.
Just real, high quality, accessible care - the way medical care should be.

DPC is a real solution.

Your health deserves more than “possible coverage.” You deserve care.

At Smartypants Medicine we specialize in providing personalized care, predictable pricing, and peace of mind.

If you have a medical issue or question, how long does it take you to get a hold of your P*P and get a response?

The Primary care provider shortage is a big problem across our nation. Because of this, doctors, PAs and NPs have very large patient panels and limited time per patient. This has been going on for well over 10 years without a solution insight...

Today I received 5 emails and 3 texts by patients before 9AM and by noon I had personally responded to all of them.

With DPC, we are not a part of the traditional medical model dictated by insurance companies. We have smaller patient panels which means more time to spend on what matters: personalized high-quality care!

🎀 Breast Cancer Awareness Fact Check:
Worried about radiation from a mammogram? Let’s clear that up.

The average mammogram gives you about the same amount of radiation you naturally get from simply living on Earth for 3 months - yes, really! 🌏

That tiny dose is a small trade-off for the powerful early detection that can literally save lives.
Smart move? Absolutely.

Stay smart. Stay well.

Skin cancer or benign nevus?! Patient case…

52yo female in for Annual Preventative Exam. This skin lesion was identified on her back. No symptoms. Unknown how long it had been there. No personal history of skin cancer. Fair skinned. Blue eyes. Significant history of sun exposure as a youth.☀️

Excisional biopsy performed to include the whole lesion and margins. Pathology showed precancerous lesion - this odd looking lesion was on its way to becoming a melanoma! 😱

So Much Winning!

✅ Peace of mind for the patient.
✅ Zero cost to the patient.
✅ Done same day it was discovered.
✅ No delays waiting for specialist appointment.
✅ No added specialist copay or repeat procedural cost.
✅ Malignant skin cancer prevented.

📣Preventative care matters.📣
