Direct Patient Care vs.
Traditional Care
In the traditional healthcare system, it's not unusual to wait weeks or even months just to be seen. When the appointment finally comes, you're rushing to say everything in just a 10-minute window, hoping the most important things don’t get missed.
Then the bill arrives, and it's confusing and expensive. It's no surprise that so many people start avoiding the doctor altogether, only going when they absolutely have to, and putting their health on the back burner.
That’s the type of care you can expect from a system designed to move quickly from one patient to the next. It leaves you feeling frustrated, overlooked, and worn out by a process that shouldn’t be this difficult.
This is why we do things differently.
At Sakinah Health, we don’t bill insurance. Instead, we operate on a Direct Patient Care (DPC) model.
Why DPC Works Differently
With Direct Patient Care, you pay a simple flat monthly fee.
This is a model built on trust, time, and simplicity, not in rushing through as many appointments as possible. It allows us to offer thoughtful, complete, and individualized care.
We are on a mission to make healthcare more accessible and less stressful.
