Why Blue Ocean Health is different
-
Doctors who listen
It is important the patient feel heard and be heard. Our doctors listen to you at every appointment. You will never feel rushed or feel your concerns are not being addressed. We partner with you and will develop a game plan to get your health back on track.
-
You're not just another number
Traditional primary care practices make money by seeing more patients. Ultimately, the pressure is on doctors to see more and more patients in order to generate more revenue. It is not uncommon for a family doctor to routinely see 2,000-3,000 patients a year!
At Blue Ocean Health, our physicians care for hundreds, not thousands, of patients. Our doctors will know you by name, know your story, and give you the time you need to have all your concerns addressed.
-
No conflicting interests
It’s only you and your doctor. Together, we determine your health and treatment goals. In traditional primary care practices, insurance and other parties often conflict with the doctor or patient which can alter, delay, or prevent medical care. This is not the case at Blue Ocean Health.
-
The benefit of time
The greatest gift we can give one another is our time and attention. We provide extended, relaxed 30-60 minute appointments for your convenience. Compare this to traditional primary care practices where you are rushed in and out of your appointment and spend less than 5-10 minutes with your provider.
-
Convenience of technology
Text, phone, email, video visits- we offer multiple ways to communicate with your doctor for your convenience. Unlike traditional primary care practices, communication is hassle-free and your questions or concerns are attended to in a timely manner.
-
Lifestyle Medicine
What you eat, how you exercise, and how much you sleep are key influences on one’s health. Medications are simply a band aid. Here at Blue Ocean Health, we work as hard as we can to get our patients off their medications and keep them off them.
