Is The Rentea Metabolic Clinic a primary care clinic? Is it an insurance plan?
No, we do not provide primary care, only specialty obesity medicine. In fact, to join the clinic we need to know who your primary care physician is so that we can make sure they are involved in your plan of care. We do not accept insurance.
Why join a direct care clinic like ours?
Direct care clinics offers an innovate alternative payment model that improves your access to your physician for a flat monthly fee. Instead of being limited by insurance, both you and Dr. Rentea are able to spend increased time focusing on your needs and goals. You don't need to worry about not being able to get an appointment for months on end, and not hearing back from messages for days. We have eliminated these problems for you. And no worries about insurance denying a claim.
