Start with a free 30-minute consult.

You get thirty minutes with one of our providers, free, in person or by phone. They explain how the practice works, answer your questions about cost and scheduling, and tell you whether what you have in mind looks like a fit. If it does, a $150 visit with Dr. Scott Faulkner, MD, or Nathan Lehman, PA-C, is booked from there. Apart from GLP-1 weight care, which can start right after the consult, treatment decisions belong to the provider visit. There is no charge and no obligation.

For most care, no. The exception is GLP-1 weight care: a provider decides with you at the free consult whether a GLP-1 fits, and many patients start right after it. The consult is for questions about the practice, cost and scheduling, and for deciding whether a provider visit makes sense. Other prescriptions, lab orders and treatment decisions belong to the provider visit with Dr. Faulkner or Nathan Lehman, PA-C, after they go through your history and goals.

The consult is free, and the provider visit that follows is $150, in person or by phone. For the Lab, BHRT and Core Concierge memberships, that $150 is credited to your first month. After the visit you see a written plan and its price before you commit to anything. Session prices are published on our pricing page.

No. The practice is Direct Primary Care and does not bill insurance, which is what keeps appointments unhurried. There are no copays. FSA and HSA cards work on qualifying services. You will still want insurance for hospital care, outside imaging and specialists.

If a provider visit makes sense, it is $150, and you book it only if you choose. If that visit orders a panel, the next visit is the read-back and the plan. If a service is recommended, it is booked then. If ongoing care makes sense, membership is explained at that point, not before. Nobody is asked to commit to anything on the first visit.
