Frequently Asked Questions

How much does concierge medicine cost in Los Angeles?
The average membership in Los Angeles is $257/mo per month. DPC practices range from $100 to $250 per month. Traditional concierge runs $1,500 to $15,000 or more per year.

Beverly Hills and Westside practices tend to be the most expensive.
What types of concierge medicine practices are in Los Angeles?
LA has five main categories: traditional concierge (annual retainers, small panels), direct primary care or DPC (flat monthly fee, no copays), functional and integrative medicine (root-cause diagnostics, nutrition-focused), performance and longevity medicine (optimization, hormone therapy, advanced diagnostics), and specialty concierge (gastroenterology, pediatrics, fertility). LA has more functional and performance medicine options than any other US metro.
Are there concierge doctors in Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and Pasadena?
Yes. Beverly Hills has 24 practices listed on NextMD, the densest concierge market in Southern California. Santa Monica and the Westside have additional options. Pasadena has 12 practices with generally more moderate pricing. You can search for practices in each area using the filters above or by browsing the sub-city pages.
What is the difference between concierge medicine and functional medicine in LA?
Concierge medicine focuses on traditional primary care with better access: smaller patient panels, same-day appointments, longer visits, and direct communication with your doctor. Functional medicine takes a root-cause approach, emphasizing advanced diagnostics, nutrition, lifestyle, and treating underlying causes rather than managing symptoms. Initial functional medicine visits often run 60 to 90 minutes. Some LA practices combine both models. The right choice depends on whether you want enhanced traditional care or a more holistic, investigation-driven approach.
Do Los Angeles concierge doctors accept insurance?
Most traditional concierge and DPC practices in LA do not bill insurance for primary care visits covered by the membership. However, your health insurance still covers specialists, hospitalizations, imaging, prescriptions, and emergency care. Some practices, particularly functional medicine providers, do accept insurance. As of January 2026, DPC membership fees are compatible with Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) for patients with high-deductible health plans (HDHPs), allowing you to pay with pre-tax dollars.

About Concierge Medicine in Los Angeles

Los Angeles is unlike any other concierge medicine market in the country. The city combines world-class academic medical centers with the strongest wellness and longevity culture in the United States, creating a market where traditional concierge medicine, functional medicine, and performance health all thrive side by side.

The LA metro area has a population of approximately 12.8 million (as of 2025). NextMD lists 223 concierge medicine and direct primary care (DPC) practices across the LA metro, with 326 doctors. The average membership is $257/mo per month. Practices span Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Pasadena, Santa Monica, Newport Beach, and dozens of other communities throughout Southern California.

Cedars-Sinai and UCLA Health both rank in the top 10 nationally according to US News, and both anchor the referral networks that concierge physicians rely on for specialist care. LA's healthcare market is also the most fragmented of any major metro. No single system holds more than 11% of discharges, which means your choice of concierge doctor and their hospital affiliations matter more here than in cities dominated by one or two systems.

Pricing ranges from $100 per month for pediatric DPC to over $2,000 per month for ultra-premium concierge medicine. Los Angeles also has more functional medicine and longevity-focused practices than any other metro, driven by consumer demand for proactive, optimization-focused care.

Types of Concierge and DPC Practices in Los Angeles

Los Angeles has a broader range of practice models than most US cities, shaped by the city's wellness-forward culture:

Concierge medicine practices in LA charge annual retainers or monthly fees and limit patient panels. In traditional primary care, a doctor may see 2,500 or more patients. In LA concierge practices, panels range from 100 to 300. You get same-day appointments, 30 to 60 minute visits, and direct phone or text communication with your doctor. Nationally, 99% of concierge and DPC practices offer same-day or next-day appointments and phone or text consults.

Direct primary care (DPC) charges a flat monthly fee with no copays or per-visit charges. DPC is growing in LA, particularly for families and younger professionals who want better access without the cost of a full concierge retainer. You can learn more about the key differences between concierge medicine and DPC to see which model fits. Golden Hour Pediatrics and Misra Wellness both offer DPC models under $250 per month.

Functional and integrative medicine has a larger presence in Los Angeles than in any other major metro. These practices focus on root-cause diagnosis, advanced lab panels, nutrition, and lifestyle modification rather than just treating symptoms. Appointments often run 60 to 90 minutes for new patients. This model appeals to patients looking for a more comprehensive approach to health than what traditional primary care provides.

Performance and longevity medicine is a fast-growing category in LA. These practices combine primary care with hormone optimization, body composition analysis, executive physicals, IV therapy, and advanced biomarker testing. LA's consumer interest in optimization, anti-aging, and proactive health has made it one of the leading markets nationally for this practice type. UCLA's Comprehensive Health Program represents the academic end of this spectrum.

Beverly Hills, the Westside, and Greater Los Angeles

The Los Angeles concierge medicine market is geographically fragmented across a massive metro area. Here is where practices are concentrated:

Los Angeles proper is the largest cluster, spanning Century City, West Hollywood, Westwood, Sherman Oaks, Tarzana, and other neighborhoods. This is where you will find the widest variety of practice models, from affordable DPC to ultra-premium concierge.

Beverly Hills is home to 24 practices on NextMD, the highest density concierge market in Southern California. Beverly Hills practices tend to have the smallest patient panels, the highest pricing, and the most premium service models. Private Medical operates its Beverly Hills office here with a 100-patient cap.

Santa Monica and the Westside (including Brentwood, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu) have a mix of concierge and functional medicine practices serving the affluent coastal communities.

Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley add 12 practices, with options that tend to be more moderately priced than the Westside.

Newport Beach and Orange County bring 17 more practices to the broader Southern California market, with a strong mix of concierge and performance medicine.

Other communities with practices include Thousand Oaks, Encino, Studio City, Manhattan Beach, and Torrance. You can filter by neighborhood or sub-city on the listings above.

How to Choose a Concierge Doctor in Los Angeles

  • Decide what kind of care you want first. LA has more options than most cities. Traditional concierge and DPC focus on primary care with better access. Functional medicine takes a root-cause, prevention-first approach. Performance health focuses on optimization and longevity. Know which model fits your goals before comparing prices. Our guide on how to choose the right concierge or DPC doctor covers what to ask.
  • Geography matters more in LA than anywhere. A practice 10 miles away can mean a 45-minute drive on the 405 or the 10. Choose a doctor near your home or office. Most LA practices also offer telehealth and direct messaging for non-urgent questions, which reduces the need to drive for every interaction.
  • Check hospital affiliations carefully. LA's healthcare market is fragmented. Cedars-Sinai and UCLA Health are the two highest-ranked systems, but there are dozens of others. If you anticipate specialist care, ask your concierge doctor which system they refer into and whether they have direct relationships there.
  • Ask about panel size. The range in LA is wide, from 100 patients per doctor (Private Medical) to unlimited. Smaller panels mean more time, more availability, and a doctor who knows your full history. Ask the specific number before you commit.
  • Compare what is included. Some LA memberships include comprehensive lab panels, body composition scans, dietitian access, and 24/7 availability. Others cover office visits and messaging only. The scope of included services varies more in LA than in most markets because of the range of practice types. A $250/month DPC with labs included may be a better value than a $500/month concierge practice that charges for labs separately.
