About

At Aspire Direct Primary Care, Dr. Michele L. Gero and Dr. Mala Nath deliver comprehensive family medicine to patients of all ages in Venice, FL. Dr. Gero founded the practice in October 2019 after nearly two decades in traditional settings. She envisioned a place where patients and physicians hold full control over care decisions. The practice earned the 2021 Business of the Year award and has grown to two physicians.

Both doctors hold board certification in family medicine and training in Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy. The practice caps its panel at 500 patients and gives members 24/7 access via phone, text, or email. Same-day appointments, telemedicine, and house calls keep care reachable on any schedule. Aspire also stocks many generic and over-the-counter medications in-office, often at less than a typical insurance copay. Membership fees start at $75 per month, with seasonal rates available for snowbirds.
