Dr. Wingrove delivers care through a Direct Pay model. She does not contract with insurance companies in order to remove the overhead/baggage that she believes is more of a barrier to the optimal care that she would like to deliver. Through her non-insurance based clinic model, she is able to offer longer in-depth patient visits, improved coordination of care, and an integrative approach to neurology that requires time.

Unfortunately, insurance companies require multiple staff for billing/authorization which often ends up translating to the need of high-volume of patients and either delays in coordination of care or physician-burnout. By charging on a more time-based approach upfront, the goal is a better return on investment in your neurological health and a more balanced lifestyle for Dr. Wingrove to spend more time with her family.
