The Concierge Q & A

What is concierge medicine?

Concierge medicine is personalized medical service catered to your needs. It allows Dr. Kim and his medical team to give you individualized, convenient care.

It’s different from regular office visits — it enables Dr. Kim to spend more time with you, enhancing your doctor-patient relationship.

Concierge medicine is outside of insurance but is available for the insured and uninsured alike. For a retainer or a monthly or annual fee, you get the benefit of personalized ongoing health care and often less hassle and cost, with better access to communication with Dr. Kim.

This concept is surging in popularity due to its immense benefits and personal touch. Different concierge plans can offer certain conveniences, such as unlimited office visits and priority access, along with less waiting times for appointments.

How do I know if concierge medicine is right for me?

It depends on a variety of factors, including:

  • Your health care needs & preferences
  • The type of insurance you have
  • How much you prioritize efficient, custom care

If you’re looking for a more personalized experience, concierge service is an excellent choice.

For the insured and uninsured alike, concierge medicine can be beneficial and cost-effective.

What are the benefits of concierge medicine?

Some of the benefits of concierge medicine can include:

  • Shorter wait times
  • Same-day or next day appointments
  • Easier prescription renewal
  • Priority access to appointments
  • Comprehensive annual physical exam
  • Expedited testing and reporting results
  • Custom, personalized, well-rounded health care
  • More time to discuss your concerns with Dr. Kim
