For families who want answers—not waiting rooms.
Imagine calling a doctor at 9PM because your child has a fever, and speaking with a real, licensed physician within five minutes. No co-pay. No urgent care shuffle. No insurance paperwork.
That’s concierge medicine. And more families—especially homeschooling, medical freedom–oriented households—are choosing it every day.
What Is Concierge Medicine?
Concierge medicine is a modern model of healthcare that replaces insurance chaos with direct, streamlined care. Instead of paying unpredictable bills after a visit, you pay a clear monthly membership for full access to a network of physicians.
At Port of Resilience, concierge access means:
24/7 availability to board-certified doctors
Same-day prescriptions when medically appropriate
Pediatric care with no minimum age
Ongoing access to the same doctors when preferred
No surprise bills. No mandates. No pressure.
Why Families Love It
1. It works without insurance.
Whether you're self-employed, uninsured, or simply tired of system delays, concierge medicine gives you real options.
2. It respects your values.
No vaccine mandates. No unnecessary interventions. Just respectful conversations and care rooted in consent.
3. It's actually affordable.
For many families, this is the first time they’ve had predictable healthcare costs. You know exactly what you're paying, and you know what you’re getting.
4. It keeps your kids out of waiting rooms.
From pink eye and strep to tick bites and eczema, your kids can be seen from home, with no lost time or stress.
5. It’s fast.
Average response time is 1–5 minutes. You’re not calling an answering service—you’re getting care.
Built for Families Who Live Outside the System
If you’re homeschooling, running a small business, or living a life that doesn’t fit a standard box, concierge care meets you there. It’s designed for flexibility, autonomy, and trust.

Final Thoughts
You shouldn’t have to choose between your values and your health. Concierge care puts your family back in the center—where decisions are yours, conversations are real, and care is respectful.
If you’ve been waiting for healthcare that works with your life instead of against it, this may be the answer you’ve been looking for.
