DIRECT PRIMARY CARE · SOUTH SEATTLE

A doctor with time to listen.

Unhurried primary care in South Seattle. One flat monthly fee — no copays, no billing codes, no 8-minute appointments.

A handsome doctor smiles and looks off to his right, he is engaging and warm. He wears scrubs and a stethoscope. He is white and middle aged.

HOW IT WORKS

Membership, in plain English

One flat monthly fee. Visits that run 30 to 60 minutes. A doctor you can text.

TIME

Wake up with a rash on a Tuesday? Send a photo. Usually an answer within the hour on a weekday.

OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD

South Seattle’s own practice

We’re seeing patients at 120 Lakeside Ave, while our permanent Leschi office is built next door. Enjoy a peaceful walk or run along Lake Washington, a meal at Blue Water Bistro or Daniel’s Broilers. We love yoga at Sol Yoga next door as well.

WHAT I TREAT

Most of what walks into a doctor's office, I handle myself

  • Blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol

  • Skin — rashes, biopsies, that spot

  • Sports injuries and joint pain

  • Mental health

  • HIV care and prevention

  • Gender-affirming care and hormone therapy

  • Addiction medicine

  • Checkups, kids' scrapes, procedures

When you genuinely need a specialist, I refer you and stay in the loop instead of losing you to the void.

Somebody hands you a story with the important parts missing. The work is asking the right questions until it makes sense.
