Medically reviewed by Dr. Rajan Kohli, MD, board-certified Family Medicine — Lakewood Primary Care and Wellness, Dallas.
This page is for general information. Whether concierge care is right for you is a personal decision — and at our practice it is always optional. You never need a membership to receive excellent primary care here.
One of the most common questions we hear at Lakewood Primary Care and Wellness in Dallas is a simple one: “Do you take my insurance, or is this a concierge practice?” The answer is both. We are a hybrid practice — we welcome Medicare, most insurance, and self-pay patients for comprehensive primary care, and we also offer an optional concierge membership for patients who want more time and access. This page explains how that works, so you can choose what fits your life.
What is concierge medicine?
Concierge medicine is a model in which patients pay a membership fee for an enhanced level of access and attention from their physician. In a traditional busy practice, a doctor may care for thousands of patients; a concierge panel is intentionally smaller, which allows for longer visits, easier scheduling, and more direct communication. It is not a different quality of medicine — it is a different level of access to the same physician-led care.
You don’t have to choose: Lakewood is a hybrid practice
Here is what matters most: at Lakewood Primary Care and Wellness, concierge membership is an option, not a requirement. The majority of our patients see Dr. Rajan Kohli using their Medicare or commercial insurance, exactly as they would at any primary care office. We are accepting new patients, and we are happy to be your everyday medical home whether or not you ever choose a membership. The concierge program simply exists alongside our standard care for those who want it.
What the optional concierge membership offers
For members, our concierge program is designed around time and access — the two things patients tell us they value most. Depending on the plan, membership can include longer, unhurried appointments, priority scheduling, more direct communication with the practice, and a care experience built around prevention, wellness, and long-term health optimization. Because Dr. Kohli brings an A4M fellowship in functional, integrative, and regenerative medicine, concierge members often use that relationship for a more proactive, whole-person approach to their health.
Membership terms and what’s included are best discussed directly, since the right fit depends on your goals. We’re glad to walk you through the details with no pressure.
Who tends to consider concierge care?
There’s no single “right” patient. That said, people who ask us about the concierge option are often busy professionals who want appointments that fit their schedule, patients managing several health concerns who want more of their doctor’s time, and people focused on prevention, longevity, and feeling their best rather than only treating problems as they arise. Just as often, patients decide standard insurance-based care is exactly what they need — and that’s completely welcome here, too.
