Concierge Medicine Q & A
What is concierge medicine?
Concierge medicine is a healthcare membership program where you pay a monthly or annual retainer for all-inclusive access to Dr. Fozouni. You have 24-hour access to Dr. Fozouni, including a cell phone number and email, telemedicine services including virtual appointments , and access to same-day appointment scheduling. All visits, whether in person or online, are complimentary with the monthly or annual membership. Additionally, Dr. Fozouni sees his own inpatients at Desert Regional Medical Center, so you will not be seen by a hospitalist doctor who does not know you and your family, except in the rare occurrence when he is not on-call or is away on vacation.
An average OB/GYN provider has between 2,500-3,000 patients and, as a result, often needs to see 20 or more patients every day. This means short appointment times, often running out of time before you have a chance to ask questions. In Dr. Fozouni’s previous practice in Palm Springs, he had a panel of over 12,000 patients, and felt the same frustration and disappointment as many of his patients at the lack of dedicated time in each appointment.
Now, Dr. Fozouni sees only a limited number of patients to ensure he is able to spend enough time with you and have a comprehensive understanding of your health needs. He makes it his priority to provide the treatment and attention you need and deserve. In addition, he provides focused preventive care to improve your overall health and wellness and improve your healthcare outcomes.
