More Medicare Patients are Choosing Concierge Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgery

Jon Russell, MD, FACS

February 26, 2025

We have found that more and more patients with Medicare are choosing doctors and surgeons outside of the traditional system. Why would they do that?

Modern medical care is not what it used to be. Many patients long for a time when doctors would spend an hour with a patient. They would sit and help them understand what their condition means and the best treatment options in light of their other medical issues. Sadly, the current system prioritizes short visits, automation, call centers, and long wait times instead of the patient experience. Adding more to the problem, it is common that many of the best and most experienced doctors refuse to take Medicare because of concerns about regulations. When you have a thyroid or parathyroid problem that requires surgery, that lack of personalization can be even more stressful. You want the best person, and you want them quickly, and you want them to spend time with you.

For these reasons, concierge medical care for Medicare patients is one of the fastest growing segments of the American medical system: experienced patients understand that investing in their health is the best investment they can make.

At the Russell Center, your experience and health outcome is our only objective.

For all of our patients we offer:

1- Same week (often same-day) appointments for $250

2- Direct access (without a call center)

3- Same-day follow up for medical questions

4- Medical visits that are scheduled for a full 60 minutes

5- The most experienced thyroid and parathyroid surgeon in the Mid-Atlantic (Dr Russell has done thousands of surgeries in the last decade).
