"Katy Premier Primary Care was founded by Dr. Chinelo Okoye with the sole purpose of providing primary care the way it is supposed to be. Our priority is the doctor-patient relationship which is the key component of the direct primary care model (DPC). With the DPC model, you will have a direct relationship with your physician and pay a low monthly membership fee for primary care services with no insurance involvement. In addition, DPC doctors work to save patients money by finding them the least expensive options for their care. Also, by separating patient care from traditional insurance, DPC eliminates insurance red tape and allows doctors to focus solely on taking care of their patients. DPC will allow you to receive excellent, timely and convenient medical care while saving you money. A membership in Katy Premier Primary Care is perfect for everyone including people with great insurance who want better access to high quality healthcare, people with no insurance, people with high deductible health insurance plans, members of health share ministries and small business owners/self- employed people who want to lower their healthcare costs or the healthcare costs of their employees."
