Good advice. No battle axes, stuffies, cacti, or blankets in baby’s bed.

Battle axe. Stuffed bear. Mace. Pillow. Cactus. Blanket. These are just a few of the things that you should not have in a baby's sleep space. Bare is best.

Because I don’t tell patients to do things I wouldn’t do… flu and COVID vaccines for Dr. G today!

09/17/2025

We have high dose (over 65) and regular flu vaccines in stock today. We do recommend that every patient over 6 months age receives a flu vaccine. If you are an established patient, you can stop by and get those today - no appointment needed.

💡 Why Direct Primary Care (DPC) Beats Fee-for-Service (FFS)

When comparing DPC to traditional FFS, the advantages are clear:
✅ More time with patients – physicians can focus on building relationships, not rushing visits.
✅ Smaller patient panels – about 500 patients vs. 3,000, meaning more personalized care.
✅ Price transparency – patients know the cost of care upfront, with no surprise bills.

DPC is about bringing care back to what matters most: patients first.💙

COVID vaccines lower your risk of death, brain bleeds, blood clots, and stroke. We don’t give them in office (and subsequently have zero financial incentive to encourage you to vaccinate), but we encourage them for all patients older than six months, even during pregnancy. They should be available at pharmacies soon.
