Concierge medicine is a membership-model of healthcare whereby a patient pays a physician a membership fee for more personalized medicine. You might think of it as a retainer, whereby you pay a physician to be available whenever you need him or her. This allows concierge medicine physicians to keep their number of patient members small, allowing for deeper patient-physician relationships, individualized medical care, and direct physician availability around the clock. This means longer appointment times, more same or next day appointments, and the ability to focus on preventative medicine. This also allows your physician to address chronic health conditions in more detail, as well as directly coordinate your care with other healthcare providers, whether they are outpatient physicians, inpatient physicians, or even out of town physicians.
Healthcare as it was meant to be.
Having a doctor that knows everything about you… could save your life.
In modern healthcare, providers are up against two insidious factors that make critical differences in healthcare outcomes: 1) Full Knowledge of the Patient's Health, & 2) Time. A concierge doctor will solve both problems.

Our time is limited. Spend it in good health.
There is no sense of urgency in the Emergency Department. Our healthcare system is overrun. When you or a loved one is in pain, or battling an illness, TIME is everything. Dr. Tritel will fast-track diagnostic testing, communicate immediately with specialists to determine treatment options, and advocate for you in situations where you’d feel alone otherwise. There is nothing more precious than TIME when it comes to healing our patients.
Frequently asked questions
Do I Still Need Medical Insurance?
Yes. Concierge medicine does not replace the need for medical insurance. You will still need insurance to cover other healthcare costs such as blood work, diagnostic imaging (X-rays, MRI, etc.), specialists visits, allied healthcare (physical therapy, occupational therapy, etc.), emergency department and urgent care visits, and hospitalizations. You may elect to choose a high-deductible insurance to offset some of these expenses. Please call our office if you would like to discuss this further.
