“The trust patients place in me as their physician has been, and will continue to be, my number one priority”
Meet your Doctor, Dave Ogden
After years of practicing medicine within a traditional, insurance based model I grew frustrated with overbook, rushed appointments and impersonal connections to my patients. I felt there had to be a better way to practice medicine that would allow for me to have the time to listen to my patients needs and provide depthful care. I decided a retainer practice was the best way to offer elements that aren’t available in an insurance based practice.
“There had to be a better way to practice medicine that would allow for me to have the time to listen to my patients needs and provide in depth care.”
There is no question that a strong physician-patient relationship takes time and patience to develop and nurture.
When you are ill and seeking advice after hours I would like to be available to personally answer your questions, and provide care when necessary. Today’s technology makes that possible. The current healthcare delivery system makes it impractical. By making these changes to the structure of my practice, I hope to improve the primary care experience for us all. After much research, and a great deal of thoughtful consideration, we have concluded that the retainer model is the best way to provide a more personal level of service.
