Concierge Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a healthcare model where primary care doctors provide care through a simple membership, bypassing the traditional fee-for-service system. This reduces wait times and offers more personalized care, both in-person and online, without copays or office visit charges. We don’t bill insurance for visits and instead offer a transparent monthly fee. Patients can still use insurance for labs, imaging, and referrals while we focus on delivering accessible, comprehensive care directly.

With Unique Health Now, you get quick access to same-day or next-day appointments, longer visits for better health focus, and easy communication via phone, text, or secure messaging. The membership often covers routine check-ups, lab tests, and minor procedures, ensuring a more personalized healthcare experience. We can also provide reduced cash rates for imaging, labs and medications allowing you to choose the best option for your needs.

A Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) is a fully licensed physician who practices in all specialties of medicine, just like an MD. DOs complete medical school with a focus on osteopathic principles, emphasizing a holistic approach to patient care that considers the whole person rather than just symptoms. They receive comprehensive training in all aspects of medicine, including diagnosis, treatment, and surgery, and they also have specialized training in the musculoskeletal system. This allows DOs to use Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT), a hands-on approach to diagnose, treat, and prevent conditions while enhancing the body’s natural ability to heal. Additionally, DOs focus on preventive medicine and consider how lifestyle and environment impact health. Whether MD or DO, Unique Health Now is committed to providing holistic, hospitality-forward care that promotes overall health and wellness.

Yes, I am fully licensed through the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) and board certified by the National Board of Physicians and Surgeons (NBPAS) and the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM).

No. Within most health systems there’s a lot of pressure from pcps to keep patients “in the System.” So we may refer you to Surgeon A because that surgeon is in their health system, even though Surgeon B outside the system is the expert on treating that condition. Because I don’t have affiliations, I am free to make a tailored recommendation for the perfect specialist when needed.
