One provider who knows you
Primary care is meant to be your first call for almost anything health related, and the steady relationship that ties the rest of your care together. When one provider understands your history, your medications, and your goals, the advice gets sharper and the decisions get easier.
That continuity is the entire point of primary care, and it is what we protect by keeping the practice small and personal. You are not a chart number here. You are someone your provider actually remembers from one visit to the next.
What primary care covers here
Primary care is broad by design. Depending on what you need, a visit might include:
Preventive and wellness care
Annual physical exams, preventive health screenings, and personalized guidance through different stages of life.
Chronic condition management
Attentive, ongoing care for conditions like diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, thyroid disorders, and asthma, with regular monitoring and adjustments rather than a rushed once-a-year review.
Everyday and same-day illness
Sore throats, infections, minor injuries, and the sudden things that cannot wait until next week.
Lab testing and blood work
Ordered and interpreted as part of your care, at near-cost pricing for members.
Sports physicals
Physical exams for school and sports participation.
Coordination and follow-through
Managing prescriptions and coordinating specialist referrals when you need them, so nothing slips through the cracks.
Mental health conditions
Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD evaluation and management (non-stimulants only when appropriate; referral to psychiatry if stimulant therapy is indicated)
Pre-operative evaluations
Pre-op assessments for cosmetic surgeries, including Brazilian butt lift (BBL), liposuction, tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), breast augmentation, breast lift (mastopexy), breast reduction, and mommy makeover procedures. Evaluations are tailored to your medical history and surgeon’s requirements. If any findings or test results are abnormal, a specialist evaluation, additional lab testing, or follow-up may be needed before clearance can be provided.
What to expect from Primary Care Doctor
A visit here does not run on a stopwatch. Appointments are longer, often 45 minutes or more, so there is room to talk through everything on your mind, not just the single item you booked for. Your provider looks at the whole picture, your physical health, your mental health, and your history, then builds a plan with you that you actually understand. Between visits, you can reach your provider directly by text or phone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Rise Up be my primary care provider?
Yes. Many members use Rise Up as their main provider for everyday health, checkups, and chronic care, while keeping insurance for larger costs like hospital stays or surgery.
What is the difference between primary care and urgent care?
Primary care is your ongoing home for wellness and long-term health, while urgent care handles one-off, same-day problems. With a membership, the same provider covers both.
Can you manage ongoing conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure?
Yes. Chronic condition management is a core part of primary care here, with regular monitoring, medication adjustments, and enough time to focus on what is actually working.
How often can I see my primary care provider if I have a membership?
As often as you need to. Your membership includes unlimited primary care visits during clinic hours, so there is no cap and no extra charge each time you come in.
Can you coordinate my labs, prescriptions, and specialists?
Yes. We order and review labs, manage prescriptions, and coordinate referrals, so your care stays connected in one place rather than scattered across practices.
How is primary care at Rise Up different from a traditional practice?
Traditional practices run on insurance billing and packed schedules, which means short, rushed visits. At Rise Up, a flat monthly membership replaces that, so you get longer appointments, same-day access, direct text or phone contact with your provider, and the same familiar face every visit.
Do you see children?
Yes, we care for the whole family, ages 2 and up.
