Most extreme case was a patient at the Ritz with acute liver failure. Looked like a pumpkin ready to explode. So I put him in my car and drove him to the hospital.

Could you call your mechanic and ask how much it cost to fix your car before even taking it in?

We always do an initial consultation over the phone. If it appears that more assistance is needed then we have to start charging

Both. Some of our patients are homebound and need us to come to them. Others take advantage of the comfort and convenience of our service and being able to be cared for in their own home.

Yep. We provide real care and follow up until you are better. Clinics and hospitals don't do this.

I go into more depth about the benefits of a house call vs. going to a traditional doctor in my feature with the Washingtonian's "Ask the Experts" https://www.washingtonian.com/2017/02/23/benefits-house-call-vs-going-doctor/
