🩺 Did you know?

Many pediatric visits in traditional clinics last only 10–15 minutes.

At Pence Pediatrics, we believe families deserve more time to ask questions, discuss concerns, and feel confident in their child’s care.

More time with your pediatrician = better care for your child.

What is Direct Primary Care (DPC)?

At Pence Pediatrics, we use a Direct Primary Care (DPC) model to provide more personalized care for families.

What DPC IS:

✔ A direct relationship between your family and your pediatrician
✔ A simple monthly membership instead of billing insurance
✔ Longer visits and more time with your doctor
✔ Focus on prevention, wellness, and personalized care
✔ Less time spent on paperwork and insurance, more time focused on your child

What DPC IS NOT:

• It is not health insurance
• It does not replace insurance for emergencies or hospital care
• It is not pay-per-visit medicine

Our goal is simple: bring pediatric care back to relationships, access, and time with your doctor.

Pence pediatrics is currently accepting new patients and would love to welcome your family to our practice.

As a Direct Primary Care practice, we operate on a monthly membership model rather than billing insurance. At this time, we are unable to accept patients enrolled in Colorado Medicaid due to program regulations.

Pence Pediatrics operates on a Direct Primary Care membership model.

Instead of billing insurance for each visit, families pay a simple monthly membership fee. This allows us to provide:

✔ Longer appointments
✔ Same or next-day sick visits
✔ Direct access for questions and concerns
✔ No co-pays or surprise bills
✔ Transparent, affordable care

Membership makes pediatric care more predictable, accessible, and personal.

If you’re looking for a different kind of healthcare experience — one focused on connection and quality — we’d love to welcome your family.

At Pence Pediatrics, your child is never just a time slot. We offer longer, unrushed visits, direct communication, and care centered around your family’s needs. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where parents feel heard and children feel comfortable.

We believe great pediatric care starts with trust — and we are honored to build that with you.
