Patient Reviews
Dec 29, 2025
I have been seeing traditional primary care doctors, was unsure if a concierge doctor was worth the money. It definitely is. You can call Dr. Vines and talk on the phone or send a text instead of leaving a voice mail that might be returned days later. My initial appointment was about three hours, compared to maybe 30 minutes with a traditional doctor. Dr. Vines talks at length about her thinking and what the alternatives are. Most importantly, she is willing to be proactive about preventing conditions instead of just responding to them. Traditional doctors don't seem to have an insurance code for prevention, so unless it is a quick glance at basic tests, etc. they don't do much.For me, it was well worth the money and Dr. Vines was a very good choice.
