ellcomeMD will present a free, informative Zoom webinar event on its Concierge 2.0 medicine program at 12:30 p.m. on July 13. Participants will discover a great way to experience health care and learn how to achieve optimal health. Topics will include the challenges posed by the traditional healthcare system for both the patient and physician; advanced testing and personalized medicine, and the benefits that this combination unlocks; how lifestyle medicine helps us feel better today and age better tomorrow; and a Q-and-A with Dr. Rajal Patel. WellcomeMD is a Concierge Medicine practice that provides the personal relationship with their physicians that was once commonplace while taking advantage of the many advances in treatment and technology with doctors, such as Patel based in their Mooresville office, who uses an integrative, functional approach. Members experience medicine that is both more personal and more effective. “Traditional Western medicine is too busy putting BandAids on everything,” explains Patel, who earned her dual Doctor of Medicine and Master of Public Health degrees from the University of Michigan, and who is proficient in all areas of primary care. “Doctors don’t have the time to sit down and actually listen and figure out what’s going on with a patient.”
Cost: $2,599. A payment plan option is also available. Space is limited to 15 to maintain integrity of the studies and ensure that everyone receives an abundance of personal attention. Location: 1912 Commonwealth Ave. For more information or to register, call 704-266-1443 or visit www.OkraCharlotte.com. See ad, page 3.
