If you’re a woman over 40 and haven’t had a mammogram in the past year, get yours scheduled. If you have insurance, it’s covered. If you don’t have insurance, call to get your $75 mammogram here.

Only a couple Mondays left!

Do you need an MRI? This video is upsettingly close to the process to get that MRI approved. Or you can just pay $450 cash at a local facility and bypass the insurance company completely (which is likely cheaper than your copay/co-insurance/deductible would have been).

Just talk to Texaco Mike

I just learned that you can look up your own records at this website. I just looked mine up in about two minutes and confirmed I’ve had two doses of MMR vaccine (1984 and 2001). If you were born after 1957, you should have TWO doses of MMR vaccine to have the best chance of Measles immunity. If you’ve had only one dose, you can get another dose now. If you can’t find your records, you can either have blood tests done to see if your titers are in the immune range or just go ahead and get another dose now. It is safe to get an extra dose, even if you’ve had one or two in the past.

Measles is a highly contagious disease, and individuals are protected if they are immune, either through vaccination or a previous infection. Are you protected?

If you're looking for individual or group health insurance, time is running out on the marketplace. Taro offers health insurance with an included DPC membership. Also, any lab work or medications dispensed through the DPC clinic are no additional charge for Taro clients. I am not their spokesperson but have been seeing Taro patients for all of 2024, and I have been impressed. Check them out at https://www.tarohealth.com/

I read this great article from DPC news this morning. Take the time to read it, it's pretty short. Or if you want to skip the read: there was a study that showed that seemingly altruistic people who were in a hurry stopped to help someone in need much less than similar people who were not in a hurry. How does this translate to DPC? Doctors (hopefully altruistic people with good intentions for the most part) are more likely to successfully help people in need (their patients) if they are not in a hurry. Come have a one-hour appointment with me, or a 7-minute appointment at a traditional primary care clinic. How many concerns will be thoroughly addressed in each setting? DPC is about quality of care. More time allows the opportunity for better quality.
