At MedNOW Clinics, we understand that choosing a healthcare provider is one of the most important decisions you make for yourself and your family . That is why we want to take a moment to share how MedNOW differs from larger health systems —and why more patients are choosing personalized care in a smaller, more connected setting. Unlike large hospital networks, MedNOW does not charge facility fees, which can add hundreds of dollars to your bill for a simple visit. These fees are often added by hospitals and larger systems simply because your visit took place in one of their buildings—not because you received any extra care. At MedNOW, you pay only for the care you receive, with no hidden charges. Beyond affordability, MedNOW offers the kind of personal, accessible care that is harder to find in large systems. Our providers take the time to truly know you, understand your health goals, and support your care over time. You will find easier appointment scheduling, shorter waiting times, and staff who recognize your name when you walk in the door. We believe that healthcare should be high-quality, transparent, and patient-focused—and that is exactly what you will find at MedNOW. Thank you for trusting us with your care.

Hey Y’all After 39 years of practicing medicine and serving my patients with dedication and compassion, I am writing to formally announce my retirement, effective October 20, 2025. This decision did not come easily. Practicing medicine has been one of the greatest honors of my life. I have been privileged to work alongside some of the most talented, kind, and committed professionals in the field, and I will be grateful for the relationships I have built with colleagues, patients, and the medical community. Thanks for your stories. Romancing them has kept me up at night. You have brought adventure, entertainment, enrichment, a wide variety of educational experiences, and fulfillment to my being.
