Understanding Concierge Medicine

What Is Concierge Primary Care?

Concierge primary care — also called direct primary care or concierge medicine — is a different model entirely. Instead of a doctor who sees 25 patients before noon, you have a physician who knows your full history, has time to think about your case, and is accessible when you actually need them.

At Solace, Dr. Flávio keeps a deliberately small patient panel. That is the point. The quality of your care is not diluted by volume.

Traditional Primary Care
25–30 patients per day — 7 to 15 minutes per visit
Weeks to get an appointment for routine care
Insurance-driven decisions, not patient-driven
No direct line to your doctor between appointments
Symptom management over root-cause resolution
Concierge Primary Care at Solace
Small panel — appointments are never rushed
Same-day and next-day access when you need it
Care decisions made for you, not for a billing code
Direct access to Dr. Flávio by phone and message
Functional medicine integration to address root causes

Your Physician

Dr. Flávio, DNP, AACC —
Board-Certified Family Practitioner

Dr. Flávio holds a Doctor of Nursing Practice from Chamberlain University and is an Associate of the American College of Cardiology — a designation earned by fewer than a fraction of primary care providers in Florida. He is a board-certified family practitioner with a Functional Medicine Fellowship completed in 2018.

Before joining Solace, he served as a hospitalist at all four Lee County hospitals — giving him a depth of clinical experience that most outpatient providers simply do not have. He has sat at the bedside of complex cases, managed acute deterioration, and coordinated care across every specialty in the county.

At Solace, he brings that clinical depth into a setting defined by access and relationship. He is a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine and the Institute for Functional Medicine — meaning his approach does not stop at symptom management. He looks for why.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about concierge primary care in Fort Myers? Here is what most patients ask before their first consultation with Dr. Flávio.

Concierge primary care (also called direct primary care or concierge medicine) is a membership-based model where patients pay a regular fee for direct, personalized access to their physician — without the barriers of insurance-driven, high-volume traditional practices. At Solace, it means a real relationship with Dr. Flávio, same-day access, and care that is never rushed.
Traditional primary care doctors often see 25–30 patients per day, leaving limited time for each visit. Concierge primary care limits the patient panel dramatically, giving Dr. Flávio the time to understand your full health picture — not just the complaint that brought you in.
We recommend maintaining health insurance for hospitalizations, surgeries, specialist care, and emergencies. Concierge primary care covers the vast majority of what you actually need from a doctor day-to-day — and does it better — but it is not a replacement for catastrophic insurance coverage.
