Why Brookhaven patients choose us

What usually brings people here from Brookhaven

1

It takes a month to get in, and I am paying for insurance the whole time.

Booking here is usually a matter of days, and often hours. We keep same-day appointments in Brookhaven, GA and the neighboring areas free precisely so this stops being the problem. Eshan Budhwani, PA-C, is who sees you, each time.

2

My deductible is so high I am effectively uninsured until November.

Then the plan is not really paying for your day-to-day care. You are. Membership is $99 monthly with no cap on visits while we are open, nothing to satisfy first and nothing reimbursed later. Prefer to pay as you go? One visit, $199.

3

The appointment is over before I have finished explaining.

Standard appointments here run three quarters of an hour. Enough that nobody has to triage their own symptoms down to whatever fits the slot.

4

I want to know the cost before I say yes.

Then read the list below. $199 covers a single visit outright, with no charge for the room, no bill arriving from a lab weeks afterwards, and nothing that later needs disputing.

5

Getting hold of my doctor takes longer than the illness does.

Membership includes messaging the practice directly, and anything urgent is answered day or night. No queue, and no automated promise about business days.

6

I know I should sort this out. I just have not.

Book the free introduction instead. It costs nothing, runs about twenty minutes, and commits you to nothing at all.

Transparent pricing

What it costs, before you ask

$99 / month

Unlimited visits during clinic hours, direct messaging and after-hours phone/text access for urgent, time-sensitive concerns. Or one flat $199 for a single visit.

  • Seen once, not joining: $199. One flat fee for the visit.
  • Membership: $99/month, unlimited visits during clinic hours, direct messaging, after-hours phone/text access for urgent, time-sensitive concerns. Three-month minimum ($297 collected at enrollment), then month to month, cancel any time with 30 days' notice.
  • Weight management: $99/month, with a $297 three-month kickstart option.
  • Pre-op physicals: $175 for the exam and letter, $299 for the complete package.
  • Labs, imaging, specialists: Labs at near cost. Imaging and specialty referrals coordinated at transparent self-pay rates wherever possible.
  • HSA and FSA: Accepted for most eligible services.

What we don't do: bill your insurance. Membership isn't insurance and isn't a replacement for it — keep a plan for hospital stays, surgery and specialist care. What this replaces is the part of the system that makes routine care hard.

Four things people notice in the first month. They are also, more or less, why they stay.

Urgent problems are seen on a walk-in basis while we are open, and we aim to offer same-day or next-day appointments to Brookhaven, GA patients whether or not they have joined.

Good to know

When we are not the right choice

Medicare beneficiaries.

Enrollment is not open to Medicare patients at the moment, and it is better you hear that here.

Claims and billing.

Insurance is not billed from this practice, and claims cannot be filed on your behalf.

Anything emergent.

Chest pain, symptoms of a stroke, heavy bleeding, breathing difficulty or a significant injury need an emergency department. Call 911 or go directly. This is a clinic, and it is the single situation where we would ask you not to come here first.

FAQ

Questions we get from Brookhaven

Is direct primary care in Brookhaven, GA a good fit if I have an employer plan?

Usually, yes. Keep the plan for hospital admissions, surgery and specialists, and let the membership take the routine part your deductible was swallowing anyway. We do not bill the insurer, so you pay us directly and nothing goes through a claim.

How quickly can I actually be seen?

We reserve same-day appointments in Brookhaven, GA and the surrounding areas most days, and the following day is nearly always available. Call 678-831-5784 and you will get a real answer about the wait rather than a position in a queue.

What is not included in the $99?

Laboratory work, scans and specialist care sit outside the membership. Labs are billed close to what we pay for them, and we will set the rest up at self-pay prices. Visits themselves are never charged on top.

Do I have to commit for a year?

No. Three months is the minimum, collected when you enroll, and after that it continues month by month. Thirty days' written notice ends it.

Will you see my children?

From age two upwards. School and sports forms are handled inside an ordinary appointment. Pre-operative physicals are separate, at $175 or $299.

Is the membership HSA or FSA eligible?

Many of the services qualify. Bring the card.
