As a Direct Primary Care practice, we only accept a few hundred patients at a time. Traditional family practice docs routinely see over 2000 patients! Dr. Lancaster has fewer patients so he can provide top-of-the-line care to each and every patient. Here are some of the things you'll have access to as a member.
We offer high-quality care to kids, adults, and geriatric patients. This includes chronic disease management, mental health, urgent care, sports medicine, medical weight loss, osteopathic manual manipulation, and annual physicals. We do not offer vaccines at our clinic but can easily help coordinate obtaining them for our members.
Need a visit? We can usually get you a next-day appointment, for no extra charge.
Appointments are typically 30 to 60 minutes, but can go as long as 90. Whatever it takes to get you taken care of. Good healthcare takes time.
For example, minor injections, EKG, ear wax removal, etc... are all included in your membership fee. The only fee you will be charged is whatever the pathologist charges us to evaluate the biopsy results (and by the way, they charge us a deeply discounted rate!). If there is an extra charge for a service, you will know exactly what it is before proceeding. There are special labs and procedures that may require an additional fee. Our members receive a discounted price for these special labs and procedures.
If you require a consultant for specialty medical care, we will work closely with that specialist.
We dispense medications in-house, so we're offering medications to you at wholesale prices. For nearly all medications, the price we offer is cheaper than your co-pay at a pharmacy. If you take chronic medications, the savings on medication might be greater than your entire membership fee.
Examples:
Azithromycin (Z-pack)- $3.65
Medrol Pack (steroid)- $4.00
Amoxicillin- $2.00
Cephalexin- $3.00
B12 shot- $10
Doxycycline $3.00
Ketorolac (Toradol) shot- $10
Sildenafil (Viagra)- $0.50/pill
Tadalafil (Cialis)- $0.80/ pill
And many, many more!
* All prices listed are subject to change and are not guaranteed. However, we promise to always offer low rates on medications for the benefit of the patient.
We've negotiated great deals with national labs to get your tests done on the cheap. You'll be able to get your annual bloodwork done for less than $40. Check out an example of our real time lab prices under the "pricing" page. This is quite possibly one of the greatest benefits of our practice and one we are proud to offer to our members.
You'll be blown away by the prices we've negotiated for radiology services. We're talking as low as $55 for x-ray, $125 for ultrasound, $125 for cardiac stress test, $250 for CT scan, and $400 for an MRI. Multiply these numbers by 3x to 10x in the insurance world.
As a board certified osteopathic physician, Dr. Lancaster was trained to approach each patient as a whole person. At Ethos, we believe that the body truly is a unit and that every part is interconnected. As a result, we do not always reach for medications when a more holistic approach makes sense. Part of that toolbox is osteopathic manipulation. We offer as needed, hands-on manipulations as well as full body adjustments to members.
*Procedures may incur separate low fee and will always be upfront pricing
