"Welcome to Hector Family Medicine! We are Greenwood’s first Direct Primary Care practice. For many people, Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a better way to receive primary care services. Rather than pay for expensive visits and have minimal time with your doctor, DPC practices work on a membership model. For a small monthly fee, we provide all of your primary care needs. Almost all DPC practices, like ours, provide more personalized care and far more time with your physician than the old fashioned type of primary care practices. Things you'll notice immediately are ease of contacting the office, no phone trees, and immediate appointment availability. After you've been a patient for a while, you'll notice the many other benefits that make DPC a much better option than other practices. Even though we do not take insurance, it is often less expensive to see us than using your insurance at an in-network doctor office. That's because most people now have high deductibles which means unless you meet your deductible you will be paying for all of your medical care out of pocket. We also offer reduced cost labs drawn in our office and can refer you to the least expensive imaging centers. The cost savings from our discounted labs alone can save you more than our fees for an entire year! You will find that there are many other benefits, some of which are discussed in the "Details" section of our website. We provide a full range of family medicine services including well visits, sick visits, and management of chronic medical problems. We perform many procedures including biopsies, ingrown nail removal, cryo-therapy of warts and pre-cancerous lesions, and more. We also perform services that are commonly performed by urgent care centers including things such as injury evaluations and laceration repairs. All of these procedures are at NO ADDITIONAL COST to you. We perform certain services such as DOT exams, sports physicals for non-patients too, but of course there's an additional charge for non-patients. Even though we do not bill your insurance, most of your other expenses can continue to be covered by your insurance company if you wish. Should you need more expensive hospital or specialty care you can still use your insurance to cover these expenses."
