A Brief History of Plum Health DPC
A Brief History of Plum Health DPC in Detroit
Plum Health DPC is a Family Medicine practice based in Detroit, Michigan that is dedicated to providing high-quality, affordable primary care to its patients. But where did it all begin? Here is a brief history of Plum Health DPC:
Plum Health DPC was founded in 2016 by Dr. Paul Thomas, a board-certified family medicine physician with a passion for improving healthcare for his patients. Dr. Thomas saw firsthand the challenges that patients faced when trying to navigate the traditional fee-for-service healthcare system, and he knew there had to be a better way.
That's when he discovered the direct primary care (DPC) model. In a DPC model, patients pay a monthly or annual fee for access to primary care services. This allows patients to have a close relationship with their primary care doctor and receive a wide range of medical services, including preventative care, chronic disease management, and acute care.
Dr. Thomas was convinced that the DPC model was the future of healthcare, and he set out to create Plum Health DPC to bring this model to his patients in Detroit. Since its founding, Plum Health DPC has grown to serve thousands of patients in the Detroit area and has become a leader in the DPC movement.
Today, Plum Health DPC is committed to providing high-quality, affordable primary care to its patients and improving the healthcare system in Detroit and beyond. We are proud of our history and look forward to continuing to serve our community for years to come.
