PRIMARY CARE · SINCE 2009
Online, on time, and on your terms. HealthcareClinic is a nine-location primary care group where your doctor knows your name — and your A1C. Same-day visits across all 9 clinics, 19-minute average appointments, and a flat $89 self-pay new patient visit.
THE NUMBERS THAT MATTER
Most clinics inherit a panel size, a visit length, and a phone tree from the 1990s. We rebuilt all three. Here is the receipt.
600
patients per physician
We cap every panel at 600 — less than half the national average of 1,300. That's why your doctor returns your call, remembers your kid's name, and has time to read your chart before walking in.
MGMA 2024 benchmark: 1,300 patients/physician
19min
average visit length
Face time with your doctor, not the front desk. Doubles the industry-standard 9-minute slot so questions actually get answered and a real plan leaves the room with you.
7days
same-day availability
Same-day appointments open every day of the week across all 9 clinics. 92% of morning slots are filled by lunchtime, so call before 9 a.m. — or book online the night before.
$89
flat self-pay new patient visit
The price is on this website. No phone call required to learn it. $69 follow-up, $49 lab draw — published, posted at the front desk, no surprise bills.

In a patient's words
“Dr. Velankar remembered my daughter's name, the medication that gave me a rash in 2019, and that I was training for a half-marathon. Nineteen minutes — and I didn't feel rushed once. I'd forgotten what primary care was supposed to feel like.”
A first visit, told plainly
No mystery paperwork, no clipboard in the waiting room. Here is the sequence, start to finish, so the unknown becomes a checklist.
Pick a clinic, pick a clinician, pick a time. Same-day appointments are open seven days a week across all nine locations, and 92% of slots booked before 10 a.m. fill the same day.
History, medications, family history, and the reason for today's visit — all done at home, on your own time. Your doctor reads it before you walk in, so the first ninety seconds of the visit are about you, not paperwork.
Every clinic runs a CLIA-certified lab, so A1C and lipid panels are back in under 35 minutes. Your doctor reviews the numbers with you in the same visit — no phone tag, no portal rabbit hole.
Your after-visit summary is in the portal before you reach the parking lot. Need a refill, a referral, or a quick question at 9 p.m.? Message your care team through the portal — 94% of messages get a reply within two hours during business hours.
Nine clinics. Find yours.
Every clinic runs on-site labs, offers same-day visits seven days a week, and has bilingual English/Spanish front-desk staff. Pick the one nearest you — your panel follows you, not your ZIP code.
