NuMed Primary Care: Thoughtful medicine, extended visits, and direct access to your clinician — with a focus on prevention, metabolic health, and lifelong wellness.
Relationship-Based Primary Care — Without Insurance Barriers
A membership-based primary care model that removes insurance barriers and allows more time for real care.
Our practice is intentionally kept small so we can spend more time with each patient.
NuMed provides comprehensive primary care grounded in evidence-based medicine and long-term relationships with our patients.
Direct Primary Care (DPC) with a Lifestyle Medicine approach
NuMed combines the Direct Primary Care model with a strong focus on prevention and lifestyle medicine. By keeping our patient panel small, we are able to spend more time understanding the underlying factors that influence health, including nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress, and metabolic health.
Our goal is not only to treat illness when it occurs, but to help patients build and maintain long-term health.
Benefits Beyond a Traditional Practice
We make it easy to get the care you need. Using a direct primary care (DPC) model, we keep our practice small so we can be there for you whenever you need us, and take the time to address your questions, concerns, problems, or simply to provide reassurance. You’ll have an advocate by your side, and the guidance and support you need for changing lifestyle habits.

Lifestyle Management
NuMed also offers additional services for patients interested in deeper health optimization, including nutrition and weight management coaching, wearable device integration, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). These services allow for a more comprehensive approach to long-term health.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine delves deeply into uncovering the underlying causes of health issues. We meticulously examine comprehensive patient histories, lifestyles, and environmental factors to design individualized treatment strategies. These plans encompass dietary adjustments, supplement recommendations, stress reduction techniques, and other interventions, surpassing the scope of traditional primary care.

Adam is awesome! I have been a patient of Numed for a couple of years now and I have been extremely pleased with the level of service I receive! Adam... Read More is always responsive and very knowledgeable! Any time I have an issue it is addressed and resolved quickly. Direct primary care is such a great alternative to going through all the hoops of insurance and trying to get in to see your typical doctor. So much cheaper and way more efficient! 100% recommended!

My family and I have been going to see Adam and Dara for several years now, and boy are we glad we found them! Not only do they treat you... Read More like family, their service is attentive, intentional, and wholistic. They spend the time and energy to workout the problems you are facing, and not just slapping you with a prescription. Their business model is economical and realistic, and couldn't be more grateful for their practice. Additionally, I have been going through with their ketamine therapy program, as I have suffered with anxiety most of my life, and couldn't be happier with the results! Highly, highly, highly recommend these folks!

I’ve been seeing Adam at NuMed now for several years. I am so impressed with the wonderful care that I receive. I even sent him up in my business and... Read More all my employees use him as well.

Our family recently switched to NuMed for our primary care and couldn’t be happier with the care we are receiving! Adam spent at least a full hour with me... Read More for my first appointment and LISTENED to my concerns. Together we mapped out a plan forward to improve my health. My teenage son thought Adam was cool and easy to talk to. He has a lot of bloodwork done to answer some questions my son had. This is old fashioned medical care at its best and is a great deal financially as well which was really important to my husband and I since he is self employed and we only carry catastrophic insurance. I would recommend this type of primary care to anyone who is fully insured as well. It’s medical care at its best!

What an amazing concept! Adam is bringing medicine back to how it should be and how it was decades ago but in a completely modern and new way. Direct Pay... Read More Care offers the best of any local medical clinic but with a personalized and hands on approach. To top it all off, Adam is absolutely engaging and passionate about what he does. All it took was a 5 minute conversation and I knew that NuMed was for me and my family. No other clinic in town can offer the same benefits to my large family as NuMed can. We chose NuMed over half a dozen other similar options because of the value, the benefits, and the “On-point” provider. If you are looking for a better alternative to over-inflated, insurance controlled healthcare, NuMed is right for you.

Read More I do... you know exactly what I am talking about. Adam is the exact opposite of that. Adam LOVES what he does and it shows! What he does is HELP PEOPLE! Same Day appointments, No cost appointments, open communication, savings on prescriptions, etc. You are never just a number with Adam and his team... He makes you feel like you are part of the family.
