What Makes Our Annual Physical Exams Different

Time and Depth

Appointments are unhurried and typically last significantly longer than conventional visits. This allows for detailed history-taking, thoughtful examination, and meaningful discussion.

Whole-Person Focus

We assess physical, mental, emotional, and lifestyle factors that influence health — recognizing that symptoms often arise from interconnected systems rather than isolated problems.

Evidence-Informed and Integrative

We combine conventional medical standards with evidence-based integrative and functional medicine principles. Recommendations are grounded in science and tailored to the individual.

Continuity and Relationship-Based Care

You work closely with a dedicated provider who understands your history, context, and long-term goals.

Our Philosophy

Our comprehensive physical assessments are designed to empower you with understanding, clarity, and a practical path forward.

Amazing experience with Carrie and Jessica of Direct Health. I have been plagued with sudden joint inflammations for the last 8 months that were both painful and mobility limiting. I have been seeing specialists about this, and they would only look at one joint at a time rather than look at the entire picture to try to understand what was happening with me. Carrie took the time with me to go through my health history, organized and analyzed the necessary bloodwork to fill in the gaps, organized a neck x-ray to get further understanding (which yielded information that I wasn't aware of and which could contribute at least partially to my problems), and finally took the time to discuss all the findings with me, including that they mean to me moving forward. Essentially I was left with the impression that I now had a quarterback acting on my behalf to find solutions, arrange to see specialists, etc. Highly recommend this team to anyone who wants excellent care for their health concerns.

Jessica got us through a very difficult time after my husband fell and was unable to go out to see our family doctor. We loved that she came to the house, got things done, had suggestions for further treatment and gave us enough time to discuss our concerns. She will continue to be my husband’s practitioner.

I found the service offered by direct health was excellent. My doctor was not only knowledgeable but caring, friendly, and very professional. I did not feel uncomfortable or that my concerns were dismissed at any one time. Also, you pay for an hour and you actually get an hour with the doctor's time; allowing you to ask questions regarding any concerns you have. I would definitely recommend them.

I am so thankful for this service. They discovered a life threatening heart arrhythmia during an in-home visit with my husband who was very ill with a viral infection. Direct health provided quick comprehensive and proactive treatment and care. Thank you!
