Why Our DPC Membership Model Works for Your Health and Your Life
Built Around Your Real-Life Needs
Life doesn’t run on a 9-to-5 schedule, and neither do we. With Smart Choice’s DPC model, you can reach out when you need to. Whether it’s a sudden concern or a simple question, you have direct access to your provider, without jumping through hoops or waiting weeks for a slot.
A Better Experience for Chronic Conditions
Managing diabetes, high blood pressure, thyroid disorders, or hormone imbalance? Our longer visits and personalized support allow us to dig deeper, spot patterns earlier, and adjust treatment proactively, leading to fewer ER visits and better long-term control.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to join the DPC membership?
Not at all. In fact, most of our members choose DPC because they’re uninsured, have high-deductible plans, or are tired of confusing insurance systems. Your membership covers everything we do in-clinic. No copays, no claims, no surprise bills. If you do have insurance, you can still use it for things like labs, imaging, or prescriptions outside our office.
What’s actually included in the membership?
You get unlimited visits with Guerda Johnson, FNP-C, in person or via telemedicine, plus chronic care management, wellness checkups, functional assessments, and access to select in-house procedures. You’ll also have direct text or call access to your provider, even after hours.
Can I really get same-day appointments?
Yes, it’s one of the biggest advantages of DPC. We reserve time each day for members, so most are seen the same or next business day. No waiting weeks. No begging for an opening. Just care when you need it.
How long are visits?
Typically 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your needs. Because we’re not bound by insurance quotas, we can take the time needed to listen, educate, and treat you thoroughly. You’ll never feel rushed.
Is this concierge medicine?
No. DPC is often more affordable than concierge care. We don’t charge thousands in annual fees. Our goal is to make personalized, high-quality medicine accessible to more people, not just the wealthy.
What if I have a health emergency?
Your DPC membership is perfect for routine and chronic care, but it doesn’t replace emergency services. If you have a life-threatening emergency, always call 911 or go to the ER. For non-urgent concerns, we’re just a text away.
Still have questions? Guerda Johnson, FNP-C is here to guide you personally and help you decide if DPC is the right fit for your needs.
