Direct Primary Care in Sanibel Island
Personalized Primary Care, Without Insurance Barriers
Same-day access. Transparent pricing. Ongoing care you can trust.
A Modern Approach to Primary Care
Direct Primary Care at Coastal Healthcare is a modern approach to primary care built around access, continuity, and personalized attention. Patients receive care directly from a dedicated primary care provider without insurance billing, network restrictions, or rushed visits.
This model allows for more time with your provider, easier access to care when you need it, and a stronger focus on prevention and long-term health rather than one-time appointments. Direct Primary Care is well-suited for residents, families, and seasonal patients in Sanibel Island and nearby Fort Myers who want reliable, relationship-based medical care.
Unlike urgent care, which focuses on isolated concerns, Direct Primary Care supports your health over time through ongoing visits, follow-up, and care coordination when specialty services are needed.

Understanding the Difference Between Direct Primary Care and Urgent Care
Both Direct Primary Care and urgent care offer convenience, but they serve different roles in your healthcare.
Direct Primary Care
Ongoing relationship with a dedicated primary care provider
Preventive care and chronic condition management
Continuity of care over time
Urgent Care
One-time visits for acute issues
No long-term care relationship
Best for immediate, non-emergency concerns
Many Coastal Healthcare patients choose to combine a Direct Primary Care membership with access to urgent care services when needed.
