Healthcare Redefined: Transform your health with personalized, premium care
Join today for a multitude of member benefits, including:
-
Your wellness is our number one priority. We provide primary care to Tampa residents that is truly preventative. Tony gets to know you and offers personalized guidance to improve your health. Our appointments last as long as you need, typically 30-60 minutes, so we can work together to help you achieve your health goals.
-
You deserve to live a fuller and healthier life free from the burdens of excessive medical interventions. With our focus on root cause analysis, Tony takes time to evaluate the underlying factors that contribute to disease. Instead of just treating symptoms, Tony provides education and support that helps you prevent and reverse chronic disease.
-
We offer same and next-day appointments to address urgent issues right away. Say goodbye to expensive trips to the ER or urgent care! We encourage members to reach out with any concerns, big or small. You can message directly with your provider when and where you need to at no extra cost. Need a last-minute medication refill? Send us a message and we’ll get back to you right away.
-
We offer virtual and in-office appointments to fit your busy schedule. You shouldn’t have to take time off work to stay healthy. You can call, text, or video chat with your primary care provider instead of waiting weeks or months for an appointment. We take a limited number of patients to ensure Tony is available when you need him. Members also enjoy 24/7 access to our online patient portal, including access to your medical records.
-
If you require care outside of our office, such as specialist referrals, surgery, or inpatient care, our dedicated team will coordinate care to ensure clear communication across different providers and settings. Care coordination includes organizing care and services, sharing necessary medical information, and connecting you with community resources. We are your advocate when and where you need it most.
-
Tony brings extensive experience working with patients of all ages. We work with your family’s busy schedule to find appointment times that are convenient for you. With access to telehealth and after-hours care, we address urgent issues so you can avoid trips to the ER or urgent care.
-
We offer in-office labs and partner with local companies that offer significant discounts when you pay cash for their services. This cost-effective approach is particularly beneficial for patients with high-deductible plans, as it often results in substantial savings compared to billing through insurance.
-
Tony offers a range of in-office procedures and testing. Many traditional practices will refer you to specialists because their providers don’t have time to perform simple procedures. We provide as much of your care as possible within our direct care practice, helping you get the most out of your membership.
-
As your primary care provider, we are often the first point of contact when mental health concerns arise. We offer support for depression, anxiety, and other common mental health issues. We can refer you to additional support and resources online or in the Tampa community. Not only that, but we are always here to listen and support you.
-
Tony takes time to understand your unique struggles so you can work together to make informed decisions that support your goals. Through education and advocacy, he’ll help you understand the nutrition and lifestyle changes that support your long-term success. We offer body composition analysis and nutrition counseling to ensure our recommendations are customized to your health goals.
-
Tony takes time to investigate your symptoms, understand your health history, and listen closely to your concerns. While the limits of traditional healthcare have led to a surge of specialist referrals, we strive to provide as much care as possible within our practice, saving you time and money. If you need care outside of our office, our care coordination team connects you with trusted providers, ensures continuity of care, and gives you peace of mind.
-
Our members enjoy the added benefit of partnering with a provider who cares deeply about your overall health and well-being. With health coaching, you get one-on-one, personalized support and guidance to help you improve your overall health. We take time to evaluate your current lifestyle and help you implement changes in your daily life that help you reach your goals.

FAQs

When you join, you'll immediately realize this isn't a typical primary care office. Forget about the frustrations you’ve experienced before. You now have a trusted provider ready to care for you.
You will have longer face-to-face time, better communication, and no wait times. Furthermore, you can text or call Tony with any questions. Our focus is on keeping you healthy and informed!
With our innovative membership model, you can talk to your provider whenever and wherever you need to, with no extra costs. This significantly increases your access to care, empowering you to take control of your health.
-
Numerous reports show better care and cost savings throughout the United States. An actuarial study found that our type of practice led to fewer specialist referrals, hospital admissions, and ER visits.
We’ve also partnered with resources that may save you additional money if you pay cash rather than submitting to insurance. For example, we offer on-site labs and partner with local providers and imaging centers for dramatically lower cash-based pricing. However, if you still want to submit to your insurance company, you are welcome to do so. We can discuss and offer options that help you to make the right decision based on your situation.
-
Our practice leverages a secure telemedicine app that allows us to be available after hours, especially for urgent concerns. This dedicated tool enables us to securely text, video chat, and send pictures in real time. If we determine that you need to visit the office, we have same-day or next-day appointments available.
-
It’s easy to schedule a visit via secure messaging or by calling our office. We also offer a virtual visit as an alternative for a quick checkup or if you’re sick at home and would prefer not to come in. As a member of our practice, there are never additional charges or copays to see your provider!
-
You never know what the future holds for your health, so we recommend becoming a member to manage any health issues proactively. If you're still deciding whether a membership is right for you, please contact our office. We'll discuss your unique situation and guide you through your decision, ensuring you receive the personalized care you deserve.
-
You are our number one priority, so we limit our patient panel to about 500 patients to ensure we're available when you need us (traditional practices have a patient panel of 2000-3000+ patients). Our small patient panel allows us to provide personalized care, maintain little to no wait times, offer same-day and next-day visits, and hold non-rushed, 30-60-minute visits with our members.
-
Some on-site labs are included, depending on your chosen membership. We also partner with local companies that provide members with discounts for cash payments. However, you are welcome to submit to your insurance company if you'd like.
-
If you need to go to the hospital, please call to discuss it with us anytime. We can help you decide whether it's something we can take care of or if the emergency room is necessary. As your family nurse practitioner, Tony wants to be involved in your hospital care—whether to speak to the emergency room provider or the in-patient providers to assist in your care. We are also happy to keep in touch with your family during your stay and help arrange your care after you return home.
-
Our practice welcomes all patients, no matter what kind of health plan you have or do not have. Our practice is an excellent option for members with high-deductible plans. If you need to go outside the office—for labs, blood work, or specialists—you can use your health plan like you usually would, or we can connect you with community partners that offer cash-based discounts.
-
We recommend that you continue to have some type of health plan coverage. If you are looking for a cost-effective way to obtain catastrophic care (childbirth, surgery, accidents, etc.), we recommend you enroll in a healthshare. This new type of health plan is affordable, provides excellent service, and helps alleviate any emergency medical bills. Here are two options to consider: Zion Healthshare or Medi-Share Complete. Alternatively, you may choose to select a high-deductible plan with your employer and obtain primary care services with Progressive Healthcare DPC.
-
With Medicare, Medicaid, and other insurance providers, you are limited to in-network primary care providers and could wait weeks or months for an appointment. Our practice does not bill Medicare, Medicaid, or any insurance provider. Instead, patients pay membership fees to partner directly with us and enjoy the many advantages of DPC. Medicare or Medicaid patients pay the DPC membership fees, and your personal coverage remains in place for everything else: specialists, testing performed outside our office, and hospitalizations. Medicare may also cover prescribed lab services, as these are performed by independent lab affiliates. Tony can still refer, write prescriptions, and act as your primary care provider.
-
Some patients utilize their health savings (HSAs), flexible spending (FSAs), or health reimbursement accounts (HRAs) to pay our fees as “qualified medical expenses.” Legal experts have recommended that these patients follow the best practice of paying annually or semi-annually. If requested, we can provide you with an invoice or submit a notice to your employer if any questions arise about our programs. Please note that we cannot offer tax or legal advice, and you should consult your tax advisor for guidance.
-
My service contract is for one year. If you are unhappy with the services OR, for any reason, wish to cancel your contract, you may do so with a 90-day notice. Any services already performed (e.g., preventive exams) will be itemized for payment. Refunds will be granted after the service items are paid. All contracts are automatically renewed unless we receive a 90-day notice not to renew.
