I am no programmer or website developer but I know a sh#tty website when I see it. I am NOT going to give the link because I don’t want to pick on anyone. Here are some highlights:
- Office hours – They are closed Tues, Thurs, and are only open 6 hours a day. There is a 3-hour day on Sat. In summary, 21 hours a week. Ouch. That’s a really tough sell.
- I found them via a Google search on Direct Primary Care after they had a small article written about them. Great. On their website, it says ASK ABOUT OUR NEW DIRECT PRIMARY CARE PROGRAM but no information or links. Not good.
- Their contact page is brutal. There is a site issue that makes it impossible to read. See the image above.
- The section for office hours is called Availibility (and yes, it is spelled like that which is wrong).
- Their staff section is just two pictures. I cannot find the name of the doctor anywhere.
- The New Patients section is just a form with no directions to do anything.
- They may be a hybrid practice but I cannot tell. They say they are out of network for all insurance except Tricare. In my opinion, Hybrid DPC’s are almost always a failure.
- Blog – they have section for a blog. If you click the link there is an image. On that very small image is the doctor’s name. FOUND IT! If you click on that there is some prose about Direct Primary Care.
All we want to do at DPC News is help. I could build a better site in an hour using WordPress but I know others can’t do it. This practice could outsource using FIVERR or Design Crowd. They need to do it immediately. Why? In the old days, the building and parking lot was the first thing you saw when seeing your new doctor. Now it probably is the website and it’s horrific. There is NO way this office will get their DPC practice going from what I see. And it looks like DPC is an add-on for them.
