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 one of the most passionate people I know. Have you ever felt like just a number at your primary health care facility? If you have an HMO like...

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.

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!

Read More say, answers ALL my questions/concerns, explains everything in detail, gives me all of the options, and cares! They are VERY accommodating and have always seen me when I need to be seen- even same day! I recommend Adam Courchaine with NuMed Direct Primary Care over all others!

Being able to speak with medical staff about nutrition and exercise goals has been invaluable. I feel incredible. I feel stronger and have better muscle definition. It also feels like... Read More most of my minor aches and pains have gone away. Even some of the mental symptoms like "brain fog" and anxiety, which I have been having for about a year and a half now, have decreased in frequency and severity. The overall improvement to my health and mood have far exceeded my expectations.
