That is why the team at Quincy's 3D Medical Concierge provides comprehensive, convenient care to patients who understand the value of health and wellness. Co-founders Dr. Ivi Kasimati and Dr. Haki Laho know the difference relationships and connection can make when it comes to care. Strong relationships built on trust, longevity and consistency help them address wellness, mental health and freely discuss other life events and changes that contribute to overall patient health and quality of life. "We are rebuilding the trust between patient and doctor," explains Dr. Kasimati. "If they're healthy, they're happy." They understand that time is important and believe that more convenient access to one's physician will reduce avoidance or postponement of care, resulting in improved health, earlier diagnoses of illnesses and potentially serious conditions, as well as a reduction of costly emergency room and urgent care visits. By providing helpful options, consistent access and close relationships, patients save time and receive more customized care. Membership to this concierge service includes exclusive benefits that are not covered by insurance. The model allows the doctors to have more time to evaluate each patient, from physical health to emotional health and lifestyle. They can focus on prevention of illness and disease rather than only treating these conditions after they are present. Membership includes comprehensive exams which examine habits and contributing factors to overall health, in addition to traditional insurance (or Medicare) covered wellness visits. Support includes nutrition and fitness coaching, stress management and holistic strategies for overall wellness. A visit to 3D Medical Concierge is unlike the experience many people are used to when they need to see a doctor. The setting is calm and relaxed with a boutique-feel. The waiting room is never crowded. Appointments are on-time and staggered, giving patients ample time with their doctor to address all needs and concerns, ensuring they are heard and understood, further R E D E F I N E D PRIMARY CARE
