Weekend Whitecoat’s Concierge Medicine Offers a New Spin on Primary Care and Preventative Medicine
Weekend Whitecoat is a direct primary care practice that provides top-quality healthcare at the convenience of the patient and not the insurance company. The practice was born out of the founder’s frustration with the current healthcare system. Often, in both hospitals and private practices, patients would schedule an appointment in advance, only to sit in the waiting room for an hour, followed by an unsatisfying and rushed ten-minute doctor’s visit.
“I felt that more can and should be done to foster a caring, trusting and reliable relationship between the provider and patient,” stated Theo Jones Sr., founder of Weekend Whitecoat. “My solution offers more time and attention to fewer patients while cutting out the middle man, the insurance company. This allows me to attain a full spectrum of preventative and primary care custom-tailored to each patient.”
Weekend Whitecoat has fewer members in its direct primary care list to better accommodate the needs of each patient. While most primary care providers have between 2,500-3,500 patients, Weekend Whitecoat limits its practice to under 1,000 patients — resulting to longer patient-doctor consultation time.
Decisions about patients’ healthcare will be made by them and their provider without the impersonal management that comes from third-party payers. There are no co-pays or hidden fees. Weekend Whitecoat’s approach, instead, is for patients to pay a monthly membership fee which covers excellent treatment and can save them money.
Members of Weekend Whitecoat can avail of several benefits including unlimited visits, 24/7 communication through the Weekend Whitecoat app and convenient appointment times.
Weekend Whitecoat was founded in 2018 by Theo Jones Sr. MSN, FNP, a Baltimore, Maryland native. They serve patients in Baltimore City and the surrounding counties by providing in-home visits and telemedicine visits through their free Weekend Whitecoat app, which is available on both Apple and Android.
