HELPcare Clinic

Affordable, Personal Care that Helps You Take Charge of Your Health
Most people think health care is impersonal, costs too much and isn't making us healthier. HELPcare Clinic providers get to know our members and help them prevent and even reverse disease by addressing underlying causes instead of just symptoms.
Health Care is Unaffordable
The full cost of employer-provided family health insurance plans can be $25,000 per year...or more.
And even after paying health insurance, deductibles and co-pays can add $7,500 to $15,000 a year in out-of-pocket costs. Diagnostic lab tests are a key driver, typically costing hundreds of dollars of out-of-pocket even when primary and preventive care is supposedly covered by insurance.
Many employers can't afford to offer health insurance as a benefit.
People without insurance pay inflated prices for their basic care.
Health Care is Impersonal
Instead of being able to talk with your health care provider, do you get a nurse line with an algorithm?
How often do you get an endless phone tree? How long do you spend on hold?
Does your provider spend more time documenting for the insurance company than listening to you?
Health Care is Ineffective
U.S. life expectancy has been declining since 2016.
Type 2 diabetes and obesity have tripled in the last generation.
The government and medical establishment say it's because Americans aren't following their dietary advice. We're lazy gluttons.
What if their advice - starting with the high-carbohydrate Food Guide Pyramid - has been wrong? What if it's worsening the epidemic of metabolic syndrome that is so costly both in dollars spent in treatment and in lives shortened?
HELPcare Clinic: Restoring the Soul of Health Care
HELPcare Clinic makes Health Care Affordable
HELPcare Clinic is direct primary care that doesn't deal with insurance. That keeps our costs down so you save at least 30%, and save even more with a monthly or annual membership.
Most diagnostic blood tests are included in your membership, with no co-pay or deductible.
Many generic medications also will be included in membership when the HELPcare Clinic dispensary opens.
HELPcare Clinic makes Health Care Personal
We limit the number of patients per provider, so with HELPcare Clinic you get a provider who takes time to get to know you. Our standard appointment length is one hour.
You get to interact directly with your provider, not a nurse line or phone tree.
Instead of an electronic medical record that's designed to maximize insurance reimbursement, ours is oriented toward serving you more effectively.
HELPcare Clinic Helps You Improve Your Health
HELPcare Clinic providers realize dietary and lifestyle changes are by far the most effective means to reverse metabolic syndrome and to prevent and treat related diseases.
In addition to unhurried appointments that let them work with you to identify underlying causes and beneficial lifestyle changes, HELPcare Clinic members have access to HELPcare Community and HELPcare Coach for encouragement and personalized support.
