What is a Membership-style Medicine?
Dr. Levens runs a membership based program designed to foster greater connectivity with your physician and conveniences that aren’t always possible in today’s high-volume traditional-style practices. Lower numbers allow patients to receive a heightened practical medical experience with their physician.
Benefits

Be available when you need us with an appointment that starts on time
The practice has been referred to as concierge medicine, membership medicine, and direct care. While all "concierge" medicine practices share similarities, they vary widely in their structure, payment requirements, and form of operation. They differ in the level of service provided and the fee charged. Estimates of U.S. doctors practicing direct pay/membership based medicine now are in the thousands and growing daily. The primary reason for membership fees in these type of models is to have a low number of patients to perform a higher level of medicine.
