On Wednesday, May 26th, the Neighborhood Clinic opened for business in Springfield.
Your NEIGHBORHOOD CLINIC is a direct primary care clinic. Their mission is to promote the health and well-being of their patients by providing high-quality primary care services. Your Neighborhood Clinic is committed to providing exceptional services that are patient-centered and collaborative. They focus on you as an individual and work with you to achieve your healthcare goals.
When asked what a direct primary care clinic was, the owner provided this answer:
“A Direct Primary Care, or DPC, is an alternative payment and practice model for primary care services. Simply put, we do not accept insurance which allows us to focus on you the patient and avoid all the practice constrains and red tape that come with insurance. No hoops to jump. You pay a monthly membership fee which gives you access to great primary healthcare services.”
There is more information on their website as well:
