What is Direct Primary Care?

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a different way to experience pediatric care.

Instead of billing insurance for every visit, Anchor in Tide families pay a simple monthly membership that gives them direct access to Dr. Lauren and personalized pediatric care.

That means more time, easier access, and a relationship with your child’s doctor. Visits aren’t rushed. You can reach Dr. Lauren directly when questions come up, and care is designed around your child—not around insurance requirements or a crowded schedule.

Your membership supports the ongoing care that helps children stay well, catch concerns early, and get the follow-up they need when they’re sick.

Think of it as having a pediatrician who knows your child, knows your family, and is there when you need her.
