Revitalize Metabolic Health is a direct care clinic offering optimization of metabolic health to people of all ages.
We developed Revitalize Metabolic Health out of a desire to bring common sense back to a health care system that prioritizes sick care over preventive care.

Direct care is a cash-pay model of health care that removes your insurance company from the equation and restores the important one-on-one relationship between patient and physician. Direct care is health care as it used to be and as it should be, eliminating the involvement of third parties such as insurance companies and government.
The direct pay model frees the patient from the dictates of administrators, regulators, and non-medical rule makers, as well as senseless clerical work and data-gathering requirements. This model allows the physician to deliver care based not on insurance company mandates, but on what is best for you, the patient. The time saved by eliminating useless administrative chores to satisfy insurance companies allows the physician to devote more time to valuable face-to face patient contact.
Price transparency is an important aspect of direct care. There are no copays or deductibles. You will know the cost of your health care services upfront. The savings that we realize by eliminating the considerable overhead costs of insurance billing, preauthorizations, and administrative red tape is redirected to patients, allowing us to offer top-notch care at a considerable discount. Many patients find that they save money with direct pay compared to what their costs would be using insurance for just their copayments and deductibles alone. Reduced overhead also allows physicians to maintain panels that are considerably smaller than traditional insurance practices. This design means more time with individual patients.
