The Problem with Insurance-Based Neurology
The current healthcare system is built on "volume." Large hospital systems require neurologists to see 20–30 patients a day. This results in 15-minute appointments where the doctor spends more time looking at a computer screen than at the patient.
For complex issues like chronic migraine, vestibular dizziness, or post-concussion syndrome, 15 minutes is simply not enough.
What is Direct Specialty Care (DSC)?
Direct Specialty Care (also known as Concierge Neurology) is a return to the doctor-patient relationship. At Clear Path Neurology, we do not accept insurance for the visit itself. Why? Because by opting out of insurance contracts, we eliminate the red tape that dictates how long we can spend with you and what treatments we can recommend.
The Benefits of the DSC Model:
Transparent Pricing: You know exactly what the visit costs. No surprise bills 3 months later.
Elite Access: You get Dr. Patel’s direct attention. No navigating call centers or "gatekeeper" nurses.
Speed: Most of our patients are seen within a week of reaching out.
