Direct Primary Care
Individualized care for optimal wellness
An innovative model with traditional roots.
At Acropolis Health, we use a model called Direct Primary Care (DPC) to deliver a more thoughtful, personalized approach to medicine. DPC is a membership-based model that allows patients to work directly with their physician—without the involvement of insurance for primary care. This structure gives us the freedom to focus on what matters most: time, trust, and truly individualized care.
Our approach is deeply relationship-based and prevention-focused. We take the time to understand each patient as a whole, exploring all aspects of health and wellness and working proactively to address root causes—not just symptoms. Care is tailored, unhurried, and designed around your needs.
Membership is simple and transparent without no co-pays or insurance billing. Many in-office services—such as EKGs, urine testing, rapid strep and flu testing, and minor procedures—are included as part of your care.
We respect your time as much as your health. Appointments begin on time and are intentionally unhurried, typically lasting 30 minutes or longer. Same-day or next-day availability ensures you have access when you need it.
Communication is direct and personal. You have the ability to reach your physician for both urgent and non-urgent concerns, fostering continuity, trust, and peace of mind.
To preserve the quality and depth of care we provide, enrollment is intentionally limited. By caring for a smaller number of patients, we are able to offer a more attentive, responsive, and elevated experience. When care extends beyond our scope, we thoughtfully coordinate with trusted specialists and services to ensure seamless, high-quality care.
“Health is a state of complete mental, social and physical well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”
Our Mission
Demystify healthcare.
We believe the path to health, joy and longevity should be clear, convenient, and attainable for everyone. We value the simplified patient-physician relationship and believe in giving our patients the highest quality, personalized care. This includes offering direct and open communication, transparent pricing and eliminating the overbearing influence and direction commercial insurance companies impart. We believe in offering an innovative, superior option for your health care to help you attain your optimal state of being.
Our Vision and Values
We are committed to creating a better primary care experience in our community while contributing to the growth of the Direct Primary Care movement as a meaningful healthcare option nationwide.
By approaching medicine differently than traditional models in Northeast Ohio, we prioritize personalized, patient-centered care by creating a trustworthy relationship between patient and healthcare team.
With a more efficient use of our clinical time, we aim to give back by reinvesting in our community through educational events, informative sessions, and volunteer initiatives — because healthier communities begin with greater access to knowledge and support.
We envision expanding our practice by embracing new technologies, collaborating with like-minded healthcare professionals, and continually evolving our services to meet the needs of our patients and community.
