About
Dr. Eric Wilcox is a board-certified family physician with more than two decades of private practice experience. He earned his medical degree from Touro University in Vallejo, California. He then completed his residency in Family Medicine at the University of Rochester in Rochester, New York. He went on to earn a Fellowship in Healthcare Redesign and Faculty Development, also at the University of Rochester. That fellowship directly informed how he built Apex Health as an independent direct primary care practice.
Dr. Wilcox focuses on root-cause medicine and long-term doctor-patient relationships. He treats a wide range of conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, thyroid disorders, asthma, COPD, depression, and anxiety. Patients have followed him across more than a decade of care, with some noting that his persistent follow-up led to early cancer detection. He approaches wellness across eight dimensions: physical, intellectual, financial, occupational, social, environmental, spiritual, and emotional. He plans to expand the Apex Health team with physical, behavioral, and nutrition health personnel in the future.
