As a direct primary care provider bringing in-home care to families across the South and West Twin Cities Metros, I like to keep things simple, personal, and easy to figure out. Pick the path that fits, and I'll take it from there.

THREE WAYS TO GET STARTED
BOOK A VISIT
For families ready to get started. Choose your service, pick a time that works, and I'll see you at your door. Same-day and next-day visits are often available.
There's no wrong way to reach out. Pick the one that fits where you are today, and go from there.
What you'll get:
- A quick overview of how in-home pediatric care actually works
- Help choosing the right option for your family, whether that's à la carte, a Sick Kids Membership, or a Balanced Kids Comprehensive Membership
- Answers to your questions about scheduling, service area, pricing, and what's included
- A clear next step, even if that step is "not right now"
What it isn't:
- Not a medical visit or diagnosis
- Not for urgent or life-threatening concerns, for those please call 911 or go to your nearest emergency department
What the Free Meet & Greet is
Fifteen minutes, zero pressure, and completely free.
(and what it isn't)
New families create a quick profile with your child's information. Returning families sign in. I'll arrive at your door at the time you picked, ready to go.
That's it. No insurance forms, no confusing fees, no scheduling runaround.
03 — CONFIRM AND WE'RE ON
Same-day and next-day appointments are often available for members. For à la carte visits, you'll typically see availability within 24 to 48 hours.
02 — CHOOSE YOUR TIME
Choose from well-child visits, sick visits, physicals, ongoing care, or one of the integrative consultations. Each service shows its price up front.
