Direct Primary Care is a model of business, not a chain business. Dr. Holt does not answer to insurance companies. In fact, she does not answer to anyone but her patients, and herself. Poppy Direct Care is a woman physician (Dr. Holt) owned small business.

In Dr. Holt's Direct Primary Care practice, patients pay a predictable monthly membership fee and have direct access to their doctor via text, email, virtual care and easy-to-schedule in-person visits at a convenient uptown office. Direct Primary Care takes insurance out of the equation so there is no interference of corporate business incentives with the practice of excellent medicine. Dr. Holt's membership model provides a level of personal service generally not found in a traditional primary care medical practice. It allows Dr. Holt to see many fewer patients than she would in the traditional insurance model of care, so she can spend more time with her patients, which enhances both her and her patient’s healthcare experience.

 

This level of service includes direct access to Dr. Holt, extended office visits, virtual visits or text conversations where appropriate, and true coordination of care with specialists and other physicians as well as record review handled personally by Dr. Holt. 

​

Poppy Direct Care caters to the primary care needs of adults ages 18-65, and can be especially helpful for those who don't have time to wait for doctors' appointments, want the ease of texting their doctor when something comes up, and value the culture of care and service that Poppy Direct Care provides.  Poppy Direct Care is medicine the way it should be--personal.
