# Clear Benefits of Concierge  Primary  Physician Care Practices

Stephen C. Schimpff, M.D. Shares with us, in his blog last month in [Medical Economics](http://medicaleconomics.modernmedicine.com), the importance of the amount of time your primary care physician (PCP) spends with you, the reasons why they spend too little time and the serious consequences of that situation.  At [Total Access Medical](https://www.totalaccessmedical.com/) we share Dr. Schimpff's views and utilize this call to action by giving our patients the time and attention necessary to achieve the best outcomes of their over all health.

Read more of Dr. Schimpff's blog here on " It's about time PCP's say enough is enough"
