About
At Coral Direct Primary Care, Dr. Lyndsi Cress delivers family medicine to patients of all ages in Little River, SC. She built the practice around a single conviction: being known by your doctor matters as much as being seen by one. The name draws from coral reefs, which thrive and adapt through constant change. That same resilience shapes how the practice serves its members.
Dr. Cress keeps her panel between 300 and 600 patients. Appointments run 45 to 60 minutes, and members reach her directly by phone, text, or email. The practice handles a wide clinical range, from annual wellness exams and chronic disease management to in-office procedures like joint injections, skin biopsies, and wound repair. Dr. Cress also makes home visits within five miles of the office. Through local partnerships, members access discounted labs, imaging, and wholesale medications dispensed directly from the office.
