Hampton Medical Direct Primary Care

04/03/2026

We are closed for a holiday today! As always, current patients can just text their individual providers anytime they want! Devin Petulla NP-C and Dr. Hampton will be checking messages throughout the day.

Otherwise, Blue is still healing up from his recent surgery.
He is looking good and has a new friend to keep him company! That is Buffy just right below him chillin and providing "support"...

--> We are currently accepting new patients if you know anyone sick of the current healthcare system! Direct Primary Care (DPC) is the way to go if you are tired of navigating this system all by yourself...

--> Thank you to all of our current patients. You make all of this possible! Thank you again :)

We dropped our UPMC plan this year at our office for our employees….🤷‍♂️

We all decided there was absolutely no benefit to paying over 1000K per month/per employee! (That was our rate increase this year!)

✅Show me another utility that you have to pay for monthly then when you go to use it. You then have to PAY AGAIN and you don’t even know the damn price!

We were done with UPMC health insurance and essentially they are all awful! I am not calling out one over the other.

So…. we got a health share at the office and it covers all of the “big stuff” and we can use DPC (direct primary care) for all the “other stuff”…

Make sense?
Thoughts?
Suggestions?
Complaints?

Direct Primary Care has been in Altoona for years! Look us up! We are the true model of DPC. Memberships for 79$ per month! Please share if you are a current member and knows someone who could benefit from our practice! :)

💰 HEALTH CARE COSTS: With ACA subsidies expired and insurance premiums rising, more people are trying something different

Meet the "direct primary care" model: • Pay ~$89/month directly to your doctor • Unlimited visits, no insurance hassles • Doctors spend MORE time with patients (up to 1.5 hours!)

Question: Would you consider paying your doctor directly if it meant lower costs and more time together?
