Valdosta-Daily Times has announced the opening of a new branch of Orchard Health in Valdosta, GA. Jonathan Wade, MD, Candace Wade and Bill Bryant, FNP opened the first office in 2018 in Valdosta, GA. Then, Chaparral/Robalo Boats was a large employer that signed on with direct DOC in January 2020, creating a subsidiary clinic that was called Industrial Health. Since that time, direct DOC and Industrial Health have been consolidated into the Orchard Health brand in order to create a brand that encapsulates everything that the practice is able to do as a direct primary care clinic. Now, Orchard Health has expanded to Valdosta, GA with a new office to serve even more patients.

Our hope is that the brand continues to expand so that communities can be educated on the benefits of direct primary care, freeing patients from having to pursue healthcare through the frustrating medium of standardized healthcare and insurance.

Orchard Health was named New Business of the Year in Berrien County in 2018. Dr. Wade and his staff care for more than 25 local employers across five counties as well as serving individual patients and families.

We want Valdosta-Lowndes County to understand there is a different and better way to get their primary care. No waits for an appointment, no long hours in a waiting room, no getting hurried out of the office after 10 minutes (or less) visit. It’s an experience you have to see to believe.

DPC News wishes continued success to Orchard Health as it continues to provide quality healthcare to the Valdosta-Lowndes County.
