P R O P E R S P E C T I V E There is a Better Way It's More Than Just Feeling Better M ost would agree that health care today is less simple, less efficient and even less satisfying than years ago. Many doctors are burned out from seeing too many patients, and many insurance companies are managing care in ways doctors would not. Overall, people are feeling less supported and more burdened by managing their health care than ever before. Some call it Concierge Medicine or Membership Medicine. Regardless of what you call it, our way of delivering primary care has been around longer than you may realize — and has evolved in ways that make it accessible to those looking for a more personal approach to being and staying as healthy as they can be. At PartnerMD, we're putting the "personal" back in "personal care" by ensuring your physician has more time to focus on you — to fully understand your lifestyle and health goals, and to make preventing illness just as important as treating it. What is the value of early detection of diabetes or a life-threatening disease? The value of a comprehensive wellness plan designed specifically for you? The value of coordination of care between your physician and specialists when the need arises? And the value of peace of mind for you and your loved ones? Since our doctors see 85 percent patients in comparison to traditional practices, they have the time to be more attentive and more accessible than other physician practices can be. We don't just tell you to live a healthier life — our physicians and health coaches partner with you to show you how. Because while we understand health care can sometimes be complicated and frustrating, we also know it's a vital part of life. 8035 Providence Road, Suite 315 Charlotte, N.C. 28277 | www.partnermd.com PROMOTION With PartnerMD, you'll get: • 24/7 access to physicians • In-depth 90-minute annual physical • Same or next-day appointments • On-time appointments with little to no waiting • Half-hour minimum appointments • Wellness evaluations • Creation and monitoring of wellness goals • Coordination of specialists and referrals • Certified Health Coaching Dr. Matthew Acampora Internal Medicine, Charlotte Office BALLANTYNE WINTER 2017-2018 67 Pro Perspective
