Concierge Family Medicine Comes to Long Island’s South Shore

“I wanted a practice where I could make a real difference in the lives of individuals, the public, and the planet we call home…. it’s why I became a doctor.”

-Daria Blyskal, MD.

In this concierge medical practice, I provide each patient with the time they need to address what may be concerning her/him – no issue is too complicated or too small for you to call, text, email or visit. I am a US-trained, board certified physician current in the latest western medical practices.  The concierge style allows us to take a more holistic approach to healthcare that emphasizes  preventative care, respectful listening and honest recommendations.  I am have no ties to insurance or pharmaceutical companies, or healthcare corporations.  I provide the comfort and feel of an old-fashioned country doctor.  I even make house calls with an old-school doctor bag!

Why Are More and More People Choosing Concierge Medical Practitioners?

• Does your busy schedule or illness make it difficult for you to get to a doctor’s office?
• Are you tired of waiting an unpredictable amount of time in the waiting room just to see the actual doctor for a hurried 5 minutes?
• Would you prefer that a single, family doctor provide primary care for your whole family including children?
• Do you like the idea of being able to call, text or email your doctor almost any time of the day or night and on weekends?
• Are you intrigued by a more holistic solution to health that incorporates the best of Eastern and Western Medicine?
• Are you tired of waiting weeks or even months for non-emergency care like check-ups, and physicals?

For an affordable monthly fee (with a discount for paying annually), any patient age 5 or older can enjoy the benefits of convenient, accessible family medicine.  Comprehensive care is delivered in a more satisfying and valuable way than traditional treadmill-style family medical practices.
