Most PPO plans partially reimburse this fee. A telephone consultation is $500, depending on the medical complaint.
Do you take insurance?+
Dr. Farzam is an out-of-network provider. We'll provide a detailed superbill so you can submit to your PPO for partial reimbursement. HSA and FSA cards are accepted.

What hours are you available?+
Available 7 days a week including after hours, weekends, and holidays.
What can you treat at home that urgent care can?+
Almost everything: flu, strep, UTIs, sinus infections, sprains, IV hydration, EKGs, in-home labs, pediatric illness, and more. If you need imaging or a true ER, we'll tell you straight.
Why a house call instead of urgent care?+
No waiting room, no exposure to other sick patients, no need to drive, and you get a board-certified physician's undivided attention in your own home or hotel suite.
