About General Medicine Care
National polls show that American’s trust in physicians has dropped to ~40% post-Covid. This is the first time in US history that more than 50% of the population doesn’t trust their provider. These numbers have dropped precipitously from 71.5% in April 2020, to 40.1% in January 2024
During Covid, many witnessed the non-sensical, baseless policies that were both physically (ie: use of Remdesivir; mRNA platform) and mentally (ie: lockdowns; Zoom schooling) harmful to the population. They saw how their providers, without a second thought, moved in lock-step with these policies.
For patients seeking an alternative to a system that reactively treats symptoms, we offer General Medicine Care for patients who want truly proactive preventative care. Our gen med care is for anyone who:
- Wants medical guidance on lifestyle changes and functional approaches to preventative care
- Seeks out guidance from a group that will not needlessly push pills, nor vaccines
- Requires input from a group with a broad range of clinical experience in a post-covid world
Provider Appointments
The foundation of our General Medicine care is our skilled Family Nurse Practitioners, whose NP accreditation includes delivering care from birth to death. Our FNPs, due to their clinical expertise and experience treating spike protein-related conditions, have a deep understanding of functional and regenerative approaches to care. General Medicine care starts off with an hour long intake appointment, and includes a 30 minute followup appointment to be used at some time in the future based on your individual needs. After the initial two appointments, patients can book with their provider on an as-needed basis.

Nursing Support
We staff a team of Registered Nurses, not Nursing Assistants, to maintain a high level of quality care throughout the patient experience. For General Medicine care, our nurses help provide support for care plan maintenance

Evidence-Based Treatment
Evidence-based medicine is a systematic approach to patient care that that combines clinical expertise, research evidence, and patient values. We have been on the leading edge, treating spike protein related disease for 3 years now. Our clinical experience has provided us with a wealth of knowledge on functional and regenerative medicine approaches that can be applied to those seeking to maintain a high level of health.
Pricing
General Medicine care includes an initial 60 minute visit, and a 30 minute followup appointment to be used in a 6 month period, or mutually agreed upon time with the clinician. The cost of this program is $850. Patients can book appointments on an as-needed basis, for a fee, after their two initial appointments.

Do you replace my Primary Care Provider?
Quick Answer: General Medicine care can serve as your primary wellness care, but if your condition requires in-person physical examination, we recommend maintaining a local provider for those needs. Many patients use us as their primary integrative provider while keeping a local doctor for physical exams and urgent in-person care.
When Leading Edge CAN Replace Your PCP:
You likely don’t need a separate PCP if:
- You’re generally healthy and seeking wellness optimization
- Any chronic conditions are stable and don’t require frequent physical exams
- You’re comfortable with telehealth for most healthcare needs
- You can access local urgent care or ER for acute issues
- You have a local provider available for annual physicals if needed
What we handle that a PCP typically does:
- Annual wellness visits and health assessments
- Medication management and refills
- Lab ordering and interpretation
- Health optimization and preventive care
- Specialist coordination (we communicate with your other doctors)
- Acute minor illness consultations (when appropriate via telehealth)
When You Should Keep a Local PCP:
You should maintain a local provider if:
- You have a condition that requires regular physical examinations
- You prefer having in-person access to a doctor
- You have frequent acute illnesses requiring physical exam
What we can’t do via telehealth:
- Physical examinations (palpation, auscultation, etc…)
- Procedures (joint injections, lesion removal, wound care, etc.)
- Emergency or urgent care requiring immediate in-person evaluation
The Hybrid Approach (What Most Patients Do):
Many of our patients use a dual approach:
Leading Edge Clinic provides:
- Primary integrative care and health optimization
- Out-of-the-box perspectives on wellness and health
- Root-cause diagnostics and treatment
- Comprehensive lab interpretation
- Medication management
- Ongoing wellness support
Local PCP provides:
- Annual physical exam (if insurance requires)
- Urgent in-person sick visits
- Physical exam when needed
- Backup for emergencies
This gives you the best of both worlds:
✅ Comprehensive integrative care from us
✅ Local access when physical presence is needed
✅ No gaps in coverage
How We Work with Your Other Providers:
We believe in collaborative care.
If you maintain a relationship with a local PCP or specialists, we:
- Can share medical records with them (with your permission)
- Respect their role in your care team
We’re not territorial — we want you to get the best care possible, whether that’s from us, your PCP, or a combination.
Common Scenarios:
Scenario 1: “I’m tired of conventional medicine but need someone for labs and prescriptions” → Leading Edge can be your primary provider. We order labs, manage medications, and provide integrative care. Keep a local urgent care or ER for true emergencies.
Scenario 2: “I want integrative care, but I also need regular physical exams” → Use us for integrative management and optimization. Keep local PCP for annual physical and urgent visits.
Scenario 3: “My PCP dismissed my concerns and I need someone who actually listens” → We specialize in patients dismissed by conventional medicine. You can transition primary care to us fully, or keep your local doctor as backup.
Scenario 4: “I live in a rural area with limited local options” → Telehealth allows us to be your primary provider. Establish a relationship with local urgent care or ER for true emergencies.
What Happens if You Need In-Person Care:
If a physical exam is necessary:
- We’ll recognize the need and refer you to local care
- We can coordinate with local providers
- We remain available for integrative management
Examples where we’d refer for in-person care:
- New breast lump (needs clinical exam)
- Acute abdominal pain (needs physical assessment)
- Suspected fracture or severe injury
We won’t keep you from care you need — if physical presence is required, we’ll tell you and help coordinate.
Bottom Line:
Can we replace your PCP? Often, yes.
Should we replace your PCP? Depends on your situation.
Do we work well alongside your PCP? Absolutely.
The best approach depends on your health needs, location, and preferences.
Register to speak with our intake team — they’ll help you determine what model makes sense for you.
Can you order labs for me?
Yes, of course. We can provide lab requisitions. You can take these orders to a local commercial lab to be fulfilled
