David L. West, MD

"Internal medicine and preventive medicine are the most interesting and academically challenging specialties, which involve extensive direct patient contact. There’s an ongoing need to attend medical conferences and keep up-to-date with the latest medical research and clinical guidelines. I enjoy the direct face-to-face contact with our patients.

Ideally, I like to educate patients about the best approach to screening for disease, assessing risk and implementing rapid and appropriate intervention to reduce risk and provide early treatment once disease is discovered. I aim to give my patients my undivided attention for all their medical needs with easy access to care and coordination of referrals to specialists and medical centers when necessary.

As part of a concierge practice, I have unlimited time to spend with patients so I can provide them with the most attentive and innovative medical practice available. This is my passion in life!"

"This is not your typical medical practice. Concierge practices are very different than traditional medical practices. Everything your concierge doctor does is specifically tailored for your benefit. Your concierge doctor is always attentive, responsive and available when you need him. That's what concierge healthcare is all about. When you call, a highly trained member of our staff will attend to your needs immediately. When you visit, your appointments with your concierge doctor will be punctual and unhurried. If you need your doctor after-hours, you can reach him on his cell phone or through our answering service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Drs. Price, West, Oakes-Lottridge, and Carrelle are highly respected concierge physicians with over 70 years of combined experience. Our private doctors have privileges at all Fort Myers hospitals. We are in the process of obtaining privileges at Naples Community Hospital as well. If you need a specialist, they coordinate referrals with the best consultants locally, regionally or nationally. Their mission is to consistently deliver the highest-quality of personalized healthcare available. That is what you deserve and what we deliver."
