About Us
We are a team of providers here for all your family, primary, urgent, and preventative care needs through our membership model, free of any insurance.
Our mission is to provide exceptional patient care in a timely fashion. We pride ourselves in our 15 minute or less response time, because we know every second counts.
We are Membership based, and do not accept insurance. However, you may continue to hold primary insurance in conjunction
with our care.
Medicine is not a "one size fits all" model. Each patient has individualized needs, and being able to meet those needs is vital. Square1 allows for partnership between provider and patient, ultimately improving better health outcomes and satisfaction.

Simple! You pay for the membership either quarterly or annually by cred/debt card or bank payment.

Alternatives to traditional insurance who recommend DPC:
I have health insurance,
why do I need your
services?
When you are sick it can take days or weeks to get an appointment.
We are available 24/7 for all your healthcare questions and needs.
We give you peace of mind knowing you have a healthcare advocate at your fingertips.
I'm fairly healthy and don’t go to the doctor often. How does this benefit me?
We all benefit from services tailored to our needs, and your health care should be no different.
Inevitably we will all get sick or injured. Being able to access your provider during the day or after hours is crucial to recovery and getting back to life and work.
What happens after hours and on weekends?
Call, email, or text us. We will answer, take care of your urgent concern, and meet you at the office if that's best.
Do you bill my insurance?
No. We work directly for you by providing exceptional, personal, and direct health care without the increasing constraints and limitations of private insurance companies.
As your patient, do I
still need health insurance?
We recommend you continue to have health insurance to cover health care costs beyond the services we offer such as hospitalization and surgeries.
The most cost-effective insurance to pair with our direct primary care clinic would be a high deductible plan.
HSA/FSA, QSEHRA & cafeteria 125 plans often have additional benefits. Talk to your insurance broker for additional saving opportunities.
Does your practice accept Medicare/Medicaid patients?
Currently, Medicare does not allow us to bill them for our services.
I am uninsured. Can
you be my doctor?
Yes. other than Medicare, we accept patients with any insurance policy.
Is your practice a concierge model?
We operate as Direct Primary Care not concierge care.
Concierge practices have higher monthly costs and they also bill your
insurance company on top of their monthly cost, so you would be responsible for additional copays, deductibles, and facility fees
Is the membership fee
tax-deductible?
Everyone's situation is different, so please ask your tax specialist for
more information about this. Ask about HSA/FSA, QSEHRA,
and cafeteria 125 plans.
What happens if I need to see
specialist?
We refer you to the specialist or hospital system of your choice and they will bill your insurance. Mayo, Cleveland, Barnes, Shriners, anywhere, you choose.
What happens if I need to
be admitted to the hospital?
The hospital physician team will take over your care while you're
admitted, but we will continue to be here as your advocate.
