About Concierge Medicine in Wilmington
Wilmington is the Delaware anchor of the Philadelphia metro concierge market. With 18 practices, it serves New Castle County and the northern Delaware corridor. The average membership is $199/mo per month.
The market has a distinctive mix. Flow Integrative Medicine & DPC ($199/month plus $399 initial consultation, 90-minute appointments, holistic care integrating functional medicine and Ayurveda) is the most comprehensive DPC. Progressive Health Project (3 physicians, $50/month fitness lab, lifestyle medicine with diabetes reversal programs) takes a prevention-first approach. Delaware Functional Medicine and Longevity is building an integrated facility with gym, infrared sauna, cold plunge, and red light therapy.
James Fierro, DO ($1,950/year SignatureMD, launching March 2026) and Scott J. Schaeffer, MD (MDVIP, 25+ years, house calls available) anchor the traditional concierge side. Premium Healthcare (67-minute average appointments, remote patient monitoring) and Mill Creek Select (founded 2006, same-day, 24/7 access) serve the established concierge segment.
Wilmington is 30 minutes south of Philadelphia on I-95. For patients who work in Philadelphia but live in Delaware, the tax advantage of Delaware residency plus a Wilmington concierge doctor is a practical combination. Penn Medicine's Perelman Center is accessible for specialist referrals. ChristianaCare (the largest health system in Delaware) is the local hospital anchor. For context on how concierge medicine pricing works across the US, Wilmington is moderate.
