Concierge Medicine & Access
What is membership-based (concierge) medicine?
Membership-based medicine (also called concierge medicine) is a practice model where patients pay a membership fee for enhanced access and personalized care. This allows your doctor to maintain a smaller patient panel, creating time for extended appointments, same-day availability, and genuine relationships. It's about changing the system of primary care so doctors can practice medicine properly.
How is TejoMed different from a traditional family medicine doctor?
Traditional GPs manage thousands of patients, resulting in rushed 15-minute appointments, weeks-long waits, and limited accessibility. At TejoMed, your doctor cares for a limited number of members. This means more time to listen to you, understand your health goals and concerns, and guide you through life. You get same or next-day sick appointments, extended consultation times, direct phone and email messaging access to your doctor and care team, 24/7 availability for urgent concerns, comprehensive annual assessments with advanced diagnostics, and personalized wellness planning. All of our doctors are fluent in English, Portuguese, and some with additional languages. You’re not a number - you’re a partner in your health.
Can I reach a doctor at night or on weekends?
Yes. For urgent medical concerns, you can call 24/7 and reach your care team. For emergencies, always call 112 first.
Do appointments really start on time?
We respect your time and we schedule realistically so you are not left waiting. This is possible because of our smaller patient panel and realistic scheduling.
Limited Membership Available
Ready for a doctor who actually knows you?
Each doctor keeps their panel small on purpose - it’s the only way they have the time to truly know you. That’s also why we can only take on a limited number of new members at a time. When a list is full, it’s full.
