WELCOME HEALTH

We Bring The Care To You

Welcome Health clinicians make house calls. We bring primary care to you in the comfort of your own home, from annual wellness visits and sick visits, to diagnostic testing such as blood draws, x-rays, and ultrasounds.

WELCOME HEALTH

Welcome Health brings your primary care to you wherever you are. Our clinicians make house calls, perform virtual visits, and have office hours at our clinic, because we believe that all older people have earned the right to respectful, accessible, and convenient primary care. At Welcome Health, your priorities are the foundation of your healthcare.

Our Different Approach

Welcome Health delivers primary care that older people deserve. We provide seniors with preventive care and chronic disease management while also focusing on often overlooked elements that dramatically affect quality of life, like physical limitations, mobility issues, cognitive changes, isolation, and other challenges within the home environment. Believing that the best healthcare anchors around your priorities, we strive to understand your personal values, life goals, and health objectives, so that every healthcare decision is made within the context of what matters most to you.

Why We Started

Ms. J, an 89 year old woman, feels overwhelmed by her medical care. She has a number of different medical problems with 4 different specialists involved in her care and takes what she believes to be too many medications, none of which make her feel any better. Doctors don’t listen to her when she tells them her worries and they rush her out the door when the appointment is over. Furthermore, just getting to the doctor’s office is hard for Ms. J. She doesn’t drive anymore and needs help getting to her appointments but hasn’t been able to coordinate the assistance. Because of all of these challenges, Ms. J hasn’t seen a doctor in 2 years.

We created Welcome Health for people like Ms. J because we believe that seniors deserve better healthcare. In the current landscape of primary care, most older people receive traditional one-size-fits-all healthcare. This internal medicine-based primary care approach treats specific diseases without considering how those diseases, and the treatments of those diseases, affect each person’s quality of life. Specifically designed for seniors, Welcome Health is different. Grounded in the art and science of geriatric medicine, Welcome Health delivers holistic, whole-person care balancing treatment of disease with quality of life, physical function, and what matters most to each person. Welcome health prioritizes our patients’ convenience, concerns, and personal goals.

Primary Care Personalized For You And Your Needs.

For many seniors, traveling to see a physician is challenging. Transportation obstacles, mobility limitations, visual impairment, constraints due to chronic illness, and fear of getting sick prevent many older people from going to their primary care clinic appointments. Welcome Health recognized these challenges and developed a primary care model to help you.
