A practice built around time, continuity and honest costs
We built Meridian around three things: enough time, the same doctor, and a price you know in advance.
- Same-week appointments
- Most patients are seen within 48 hours, and urgent concerns are seen the same day.
- The same doctors every visit
- You see one small team who know your history, not whoever happens to be free.
- Prices you know in advance
- You get a cost estimate before the visit, and the bill matches it.
- Time to ask your questions
- Online booking and video visits, with appointments scheduled long enough to talk.
“I want to know you well enough to notice when something changes, long before it becomes a problem.”
Dr. Amara Whitfield, MD
Lead Physician, Family Medicine

What patients say
“I switched practices after years of ten-minute rushed appointments. Dr. Whitfield actually remembers our conversations from visit to visit. It changed how I think about going to the doctor.”
Rebecca Turner
Patient since 2019, rated 5 out of 5
“I booked a same-day visit for my son's fever on a Tuesday morning and we were seen by 2pm. The doctor already had his chart, so there was nothing to re-explain.”
Marcus Deng
Patient since 2021, rated 5 out of 5
“Dr. Novak helped me get my blood pressure under control after two other doctors kept adjusting my prescription without asking questions. He looked at the whole picture.”
