By operating under a Direct Primary Care (DPC) model
your doctor has enough time to ask better questions, look at the full picture, and actually figure out what is going on.
For you, that means easier access, fewer unnecessary medications, clearer answers, and care that you can finally feel confident in.
How Does DPC Work?
Through a simple membership fee, you get direct access to Dr. Paik
A board-certified Family Medicine physician with more than 24 years of experience, for all your primary care needs, with no hidden or extra costs.
As a member, you get the time and access you need to really take care of your health without feeling rushed or limited. You have a doctor who knows your story, understands your goals, and is there to guide you through both the small questions and the bigger challenges.

Do I Still Need Insurance?
Direct Primary Care is not a replacement for insurance, but it does change how you use it. Your membership covers your primary care and the ongoing support that most people need on a regular basis.
For things like hospitalizations, emergencies, or specialist care, many patients choose to keep a high-deductible or catastrophic plan. The difference is that you are no longer relying on insurance for everyday care, which is often where the frustration comes from.
Most of our patients find that with more thoughtful care, fewer medications, and fewer unnecessary visits, they end up using their insurance far less than before.
How Our Membership Works
A simple monthly fee gives you access to your primary care, without insurance getting in the way.
No long waits or rushed visits. You can be seen when something comes up, not weeks later.
Appointments are unhurried, so you can talk things through and actually understand what’s going on.
We look at the full picture, not just symptoms, so you’re not stuck adding more medications without answers.
You have direct access to your doctor, so questions don’t have to wait until your next appointment.
