Is Concierge Medicine Right for You? A Guide to Personalized Healthcare

A specific type of healthcare is seeing marked growth that experts expect to continue. Across the U.S., the concierge medicine market grew by nearly $1.5 billion between 2023 and 2025, with no signs of slowing down. 

It makes sense. Concierge medicine offers an alternative path to folks who are frustrated with long appointment wait times, rushed visits, and cold, non-personalized care. By tapping into a concierge medicine provider, you get a doctor who knows you well and is invested in your health outcomes. 

David Bolon, MD, now offers concierge medicine here at Manhattan Integrative Cardiovascular in Midtown East, Manhattan, New York City. Enrolling in this type of healthcare gives you around-the-clock access to Dr. Bolon and our team, same or next-day appointments, and more. 

Should you try it? Here’s what you need to know to decide if concierge medicine is right for you.

What to expect with concierge medicine

Concierge medicine allows providers like Dr. Bolon to take on fewer patients. This way, instead of having to rush through appointments, they can take a focused approach with each individual they see. The reduced patient load means Dr. Bolon can spend more time preparing for your appointment, with you in the room, and tailoring a personalized treatment protocol to you afterward. 

As one study puts it, this healthcare approach focuses on the tandem goals of:

• Providing high-quality personalized care
• Increasing access to your doctor
• Delivering better continuity in care

In other words, you won’t get shuffled around between doctors or get recommended a treatment plan that you then have to manage on your own. 

Plus, your personal goals play a big role in the way Dr. Bolon tailors your care. Whether you want help eating better, screening for conditions that have affected your family members, managing stress, or anything else, he comes alongside you. 

How concierge medicine works

Concierge medicine plays on the subscription-based model that’s prevalent in so many fields today. You pay a membership fee, which gives you increased access to your doctor. Our membership fee is $400 a month. 

While Dr. Bolon specializes in cardiovascular care, under your membership, he can do everything a primary care provider would. You can come to us for your physical, to get lab tests ordered, and to get screened for health conditions. Additionally, because Dr. Bolon is a board-certified cardiologist, he uses his time with you to support your heart health. 

Whenever you need an appointment, we make sure you see us quickly. We’re available 24/7, and we offer same-day appointments whenever we can. Even if we can’t get you in that day, you won’t have to wait long. We guarantee an appointment within one business day. 

And if you ever need care that Dr. Bolon can’t provide (i.e., attention from a specialist), our office coordinates the visit for you. 

If you want more direct access to your doctor and a more streamlined healthcare experience, concierge medicine is probably right for you. To enroll in a membership or schedule some time with Dr. Bolon to discuss this approach, call our office at (716) 303-4738 or book your appointment online today.
