Traditional clinics run on volume, rushed visits, long waits, and a doctor who barely knows your history. By limiting enrollment and working outside of the insurance system, Dr. Nelly has the time to know each patient personally, be available when it matters, and give every visit the attention it deserves.
No insurance. No copays. Cancel anytime.

Direct primary care doesn't replace health insurance, it works alongside it. Insurance covers hospitalizations, specialists, and major procedures; membership gives you better access to your primary doctor.
