Due to the constraints of insurance, the average appointment with your doctor lasts fewer than fifteen minutes. This is particularly problematic in primary care and internal medicine where we must oversee the entirety of your health.

My practice, for example, is capped at three hundred patients, and I see fewer than three patients per day.

This extra time leads to several benefits.
