What is concierge medicine?

Concierge medicine provides personalized preventive and general telehealth care to people five and older. When you enroll in concierge medicine at JST 24-hour Telemedicine Services, LLC, a monthly service fee is charged. This fee gives you 24-hour access to Dr. Thomas and her medical expertise. 

This unique structure allows Dr. Thomas to set a clientele limit, ensuring you and your family receive the quality one-on-one time and attention you deserve. 

What services does concierge medicine provide?

At JST 24-hour Telemedicine Services, LLC, Dr. Thomas provides various concierge medicine services, including:

Physical exams

During a telehealth physical exam, Dr. Thomas reviews your medical records and asks about your health and lifestyle. Tell her about your diet, exercise habits, and sleep. 

Next, Dr. Thomas examines your eyes, ears, nose, and throat, checks your skin for abnormalities, and completes a mental health exam. During this part of the appointment, you might need to point your web camera at specific body parts.

At the end of your exam, Dr. Thomas will refer you to a nearby clinic for lab testing, including bloodwork, urinalysis, and blood pressure monitoring.

Urgent care

Urgent care provides same-day telehealth treatment for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries. If you develop a cold, catch the flu, or sprain your ankle, urgent care can relieve your symptoms and speed your recovery. 

General medical care

Dr. Thomas regularly diagnoses and treats common medical conditions, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), eczema, and erectile dysfunction (ED). Most of these issues can be managed with telehealth, but if necessary, she can refer you to nearby labs or clinics for in-person testing.

Specialist referrals

Certain medical conditions, such as depression, arthritis, and cancer, require a multi-pronged treatment approach. Dr. Thomas has strong relationships with specialists in all branches of medicine and provides referrals when necessary.

What are the benefits of concierge medicine?

Concierge medicine provides various benefits for you and your family, including:

• Shorter wait times
• Access to unlimited primary care services
• A stronger relationship with your primary care provider
• Health counseling
• Round-the-clock care

Concierge medicine is convenient. If you need to see Dr. Thomas, you don’t have to take time off work or sit in traffic. Simply log in to the secure online telehealth platform and get the care you need. 

Is concierge medicine a substitute for health insurance?

Concierge medicine provides complete access to primary care services for a monthly fee, but it isn’t a substitute for health insurance. The fee covers some services, like prescription refills and copays, but not others. Health insurance can prevent you from having to pay additional costs out of pocket.
