The Definitive Guide to Direct Primary Care: Everything You Need to Know 

1. The Problem: Healthcare Feels Broken 

You’re not imagining it. Healthcare today feels impersonal, expensive, and frustrating. 

You wait weeks for appointments. You spend more time in the waiting room than with your doctor. You get rushed through visits, billed for every minute, and left with more questions than answers. 

You’re not just tired of the system—you’re tired of feeling like a number. 

But what if there was a better way? 

2. The Internal Struggle: You Want Care That Cares 

You want a doctor who knows your name. Who listens. Who treats you like a person, not a chart. 

You want to stop worrying about surprise bills, insurance games, and whether your health concerns are “worth” bringing up. 

You want a relationship with your provider—one built on trust, time, and transparency. 

That’s where Direct Primary Care (DPC) comes in. 

3. The Guide: Plus DPC in Michigan

Our mission is to restore the patient-doctor relationship—one conversation, one visit, one life at a time.
