About

At Atown Family Med in Atascadero, California, Dr. Patricia Schechter has delivered full-spectrum family medicine since 1988. The practice serves patients at every stage of life, from infants and children through adults and geriatrics. Today, two full-time clinicians and two part-time clinicians make up the team. The practice runs a hybrid model, pairing standard family medicine with a concierge membership program. Dr. Schechter holds a limited number of concierge patients to keep care personal and thorough. The clinical menu spans preventive medicine, chronic care management, women's health, osteopathic manipulative treatment, and weight management. The practice also offers a robust suite of medical aesthetic services, with dedicated Friday appointments for laser therapy, body contouring, injectables, and microneedling.
