How Does Concierge Medicine Work?
Just call (843) 681-5305 and make an initial appointment. Our medical professionals will examine you and fill you in on all you need to know about the level of care you will be receiving and ease any concerns and answer all the questions you may have. You will find our offices wonderfully appointed and will be made to feel at ease the moment you enter our doors. Whether you want to confront a nagging medical issue that has been bothering you, have an acute sickness or medical condition, disease management, healthy living lifestyle change, or you would like to just lose a little weight and would like the opinion of a Medical Doctor. Our programs are tailor-made for each individual because we realize “There is no other You” and every patient is unique.
Why Choose SC Internal Medicine Concierge Program?
Dr. Paul Long established the concierge program in 1999 with the concept in mind to give his patients the extra time and attention they deserved, as someone who placed their health in his hands. This attention to the individual and his fight to keep his patients out of the hospital environment is still the hallmark of our practice today. Hospitals are mercy vessels that are vital to our healthcare system but keeping an immune-suppressed, chronically ill, or otherwise somewhat healthy patient at home while they receive treatment is the goal. Whether you are someone who has age-related problems, complex medical conditions, requiring numerous tests and specialists, someone who values prevention at every office visit, or someone who desires your time to be maximized, values minimal stress and desires a Doctor and Staff who are flexible, caring and accommodating, SC Internal Medicine is the right fit for you. Doctors Powell and Long and the SC Internal Medicine staff can provide you with the level of care you desire and deserve. Proper medicine should never feel rushed or uncaring.
Holistic Care, Rooted in Expertise – Empowering You to Take Charge of Your Health
In choosing SC Internal Medicine you will have the benefit of Dr. Powell’s unique approach of blending Experience/Evidence-Based Medicine, Functional Medicine, and Preventative Medicine all in one appointment. Through this elite service, you will be provided individualized care that will not only treat acute illness but will also investigate the underlying causes to help prevent recurrences. These methods also focus on preventing disease and illness rather than simply treating a condition. Dr. Powell has the unique ability to “help” you take control of your health, teaching you how to adopt new habits either through evidence-based medicine or dietary recommendations, lifestyle changes, or a blend of two or more of these programs.
