Personalized Primary Care Designed With You in Mind.

Tired of call centers with endless options and long hold times?  Wondering why you can’t ever get a same day or next day appointment when you need to see your doctor, instead of waiting for days or sometimes even weeks?   Wish you could see the same primary care physician year after year, instead of having to switch to a new one every time your health insurance changes?

We hear you.

At Blue Cedar Medical, we think personal care should be just that:  personal.  With a board-certified physician who knows you, understands you, and has time for you.

The traditional system is broken.  It’s time for a new way of doing things, that offers:

  • A small, limited number of patients, so there’s always room in the schedule for you

  • Quick access to appointments, that last as long as needed for communication that’s not rushed, along with proper diagnosis and treatment

  • Physicians who have been part of the fabric of the community in Portland for over 15 years

  • A primary care doctor you can keep and maintain a relationship with, no matter what changes you make to your health insurance

  • A broad network of coordination with specialists and hospitals, including Legacy Health, OHSU, Providence Health and Adventist Medical Center

Here’s How it Works:

Instead of taking insurance, we charge a modest monthly fee that covers 100% of your primary care visit.  No deductibles, no co-pays and no insurance middlemen involved.  For most people, it ends up being about the same amount they spend on their cell phone or cable TV bill.

If you need a referral to see a specialist, we’ll help find the best one in your health insurance network.  We have an extensive list of colleagues who specialize in different areas of health care, with whom we maintain regular and professional relationships.

If you need blood work, we can draw your blood in our office and send it to a lab that will bill your health insurance.  Same with your prescriptions — we’ll always use your preferred pharmacy.

When you’re sick and need to see your doctor, the last thing you need is more paperwork, hassles, wait times and unexpected fees.  Because we’re a membership based internal medicine practice, we’re able to leave all of that behind and focus on what we do best:  Taking care of you.
