Direct Primary Care Pediatricians
DPC pediatricians offer families a refreshing alternative to rushed 15-minute well-child visits. With a smaller patient panel, your child's doctor has time to truly know them—developmentally, medically, and personally.
Pediatric DPC memberships are often the most affordable in the model, frequently running $50-$100/month for children. Services typically include all well-child visits, vaccinations, sick visits, developmental screenings, sports physicals, and acute care. DPC pediatricians can handle same-day sick calls that would otherwise send families to urgent care. Because they don't bill insurance for routine services, they spend more time with patients and less time on paperwork.
