-
What makes this type of practice better?This practice model allows Dr. Bryskin to spend more time with each patient rather than rushing from room to room. Time to listen, gather information and examine each patient is required for an accurate diagnosis and formulation of an appropriate treatment plan. This approach has been shown to increase patient satisfaction and improve patient outcomes.
-
Will this mean I will need to come in more often to "get my money's worth"?Our practice empowers people to take charge of their own healthcare with the guidance of a physician. We offer unlimited visits to give you more options and the opportunity to see Dr. Bryskin when you need. It allows better overall care because your Doctor is not rushed to get from patient to patient. This does not mean you will not get your money’s worth if you do not come in every month. Membership provides all the tools necessary to make informed healthy decisions without the worry of limitations.
-
Can I meet Dr. Bryskin before I join the practice?Of course, just call our office and we will be happy to set up a “meet and greet” appointment.
