Dr. Michelle DuMond

My philosophy of care is simple: be the jack-of-all-trades primary physician for my patients. I focus on keeping care local and practical—managing complex symptoms, coordinating what’s needed, and reducing unnecessary referrals to specialists whenever safe and appropriate. You receive thorough evaluation, thoughtful problem-solving, and continuity from one doctor who knows your history. Above all, I prioritize listening: making space for your concerns, validating experiences, and building treatment plans together so you feel heard, respected, and empowered in your care.

About My Practice
The Direct Primary Care model is a little different than other primary care clinics. I do not bill through insurance per service or appointment. Instead, my patients pay a monthly membership fee that covers primary care services, much like a gym membership. This allows me to prioritize my patients in many ways:
I offer flexible appointment lengths so you can have all the time you need to address your concerns.
I have a smaller panel size so there is ample appointment availability to get you in when you need, even last minute.
Perhaps the most exciting is that I am able to offer high quality in-between care. What this means is that the appointment in the office is only a small part of the care you receive. I spend a lot of time in between appointments answering your questions, reviewing your records, doing research on topics and medications related to your care specifically, and creating patient information handouts to help distill the best medical recommendations into action items for you.
In short, this clinic is a way for me to practice medicine the way I think is best, which is to slow down, listen, and be present. If that sounds like a good fit for you, then lets connect and I can answer whatever questions you may have!
