WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

• More time with patients. Proactive MD providers spend an average of 30 minutes per patient visit and are able to address the whole patient, not just one problem per encounter. 
• Small, dedicated patient panels. Commitment to time spent in preventive, education and screening endeavors. 
• Practice broad-scope medicine. Practice thorough, patient-focused, effective primary care rather than rushing patients through with substantially reduced charting and coding requirements. 
• No RVUs or other volume-based measures. We are not fee-for-service. Improving patient health, satisfaction, and engagement are our priorities. Not the number you can see in a day. 
• We are only and always about the patient. We promise to always fight for their greatest good. This is our Patient Promise, and it's the guiding principle of everything we do at Proactive MD.
