New to direct primary care?
Instead of insurance acting as the middleman for everyday primary care, you pay the practice directly through a flat membership. Many members keep insurance for hospital stays, specialists, and emergencies.

Primary care got crowded out
Our experience in outpatient clinics has shown us how much time and energy insurance requirements, paperwork, prior authorizations, and administrative barriers consume — often taking attention away from what matters most: the patient.
We have seen what that does to our community: delayed care, long waits, rushed appointments, a different provider each time, repeating your story over and over, and sometimes feeling like no one is truly listening.
NikhareMD was created to offer a different kind of healthcare experience. We believe you deserve time with your doctor, personal attention, convenient access, and a relationship built on trust.
What you can expect
- Same-day or next-day visits for acute medical concerns
- Longer, unrushed appointments so you have time to discuss your concerns
- Personal attention, focused on you and your individual needs
- Direct access to your doctor, without unnecessary intermediaries
- Care for insured and uninsured patients, with the same commitment to each
- Transparent pricing, with no surprise bills or unexpected co-pays
“Let every patient feel heard, every concern respected, and every visit meaningful.”
