Welcome Health

Welcome Health Direct Primary Care for individuals, families and businesses in Augusta, Evans and Waynesboro, GA

Welcome Health grew out of the practice started by Dr. Rob Lamberts in the beginning 2013. Frustrated with how normal primary care gives little attention to the needs of the patient, he left his old practice and became one of the pioneers of Direct Primary Care. His patients were delighted with the change and his practice grew. This success caught the attention of Davis Mellick and Ed Boland who were also exhausted by the usual business of healthcare. They saw this as a chance to escape the hamster wheel of fee-for-service medicine and practice in a patient-centered world.

We’re excited to welcome Peyton Gruber, PA-C, to our Evans location!

Peyton joins the Welcome Health team part-time, bringing her passion for preventive care and her background in emergency medicine. A Savannah native and Augusta University PA graduate, she’s eager to build lasting relationships with her patients by taking the time to listen, connect, and help prevent emergencies before they happen. 💙

Peyton first discovered Direct Primary Care while rotating with Davis Mellick, PA-C during PA school, and she immediately knew it was the kind of care she wanted to provide.

When she’s not caring for patients, you’ll find her:
💪 Working out at the gym
🍳 Cooking at home
📚 Reading in her favorite chair
🐾 Spending time with her husband and their fur baby

✨ Peyton begins seeing patients Monday, October 27. Join us in giving her a warm Welcome Health hello! 👋 Learn more about Peyton: https://welcomehealth.net/providers/peyton-gruber/

Our Story

I worked for 18 years doing primary care for adults and children in the insurance-run health care system. In February of 2013 I opened my new "direct care" practice, a practice where I work for the people in health care that really matter: my patients. For a low monthly fee I provide: 1. Office visits at no additional cost 2. Lab tests, procedures, and medications (when possible) at low cost. 3. Problems handled via secure messaging, video conference, phone calls, text messages, whatever my patients want. I don't force people to come in for problems I can handle using easier means. 4. High level of customer service.

I don’t accept money from insurance companies, although many of my patients still have insurance (which I encourage). I find that money from insurance companies (or Medicare/Medicaid) take the focus off of the patient, distract the medical staff, and generate a huge amount of increased work and headache for everyone. Primary care should be simple. It should be between the doctor and the patient and focus more on health than sickness. Our system (with insurance) does the opposite.

Since opening in 2013 my practice has grown to over 700 patients, and I’m still able to give people better care than I have ever been able to give.
