Barefoot Pediatrics

Barefoot Pediatrics charges a one-time enrollment fee of $100 per family. The monthly subscription runs $100 for the first child, $50 for each additional sibling, with a family maximum of $250 per month. Members can also add an optional $50 per month to help subsidize care for a lower-income family.

The membership covers all visits with Dr. Dunn, including well visits, same-day sick visits, chronic condition management, developmental screenings, behavioral support, in-office lab tests, and telehealth visits. It also includes acupuncture for member children and in-home newborn visits for the first month of life within a 20-minute drive of the office. Procedures such as sutures and staples are included as well.

Yes. As of January 1, 2026, DPC subscription fees qualify as eligible expenses for HSA and FSA accounts. Paying by HSA, debit, or bank account also avoids the added fee that applies to credit card payments.

Barefoot Pediatrics does not accept insurance for membership fees or visits. Families still benefit from maintaining insurance coverage for specialist referrals, hospitalizations, imaging, and labs ordered through outside facilities. A high-deductible plan or health sharing agreement pairs well with this model.

Dr. Dunn includes in-home newborn visits as part of the membership for the first month of life. She visits families within a 20-minute drive of the Winchester office at no extra charge. Families outside that range may incur a small transportation fee to cover travel time and gas.
