If it’s hard for you to make a doctor’s appointment during the workweek or find an available primary care doctor, don’t worry. We’re here to help you today, whether you prefer to use a secure app on your phone or visit our clinic in person. We accept most health insurance plans, including Kaiser, which often covers video visits (although some plans might require a co-pay). If you’d rather pay directly, we offer discounts, especially if you have an FSA or HSA plan.

They’re also a convenient option when your regular doctor isn’t available or if you have health questions on the weekend.
