No. Membership covers the primary care services Dr. Clemens provides in his office, but it does not function as health insurance. Members should carry their own insurance to cover hospitalizations, specialist visits, medications, lab work, and imaging. Elite Internal Medicine is designed to complement your existing coverage, not replace it.

Members receive same-day or next-day appointments, unlimited office visits, and virtual visits with no extra copays. Membership also includes direct phone and email access to Dr. Clemens, an annual comprehensive wellness exam, preventive screenings, chronic disease management, and lifestyle and nutrition guidance. Dr. Clemens coordinates specialist referrals and in-office diagnostic testing as part of ongoing care.

Yes. Members have direct phone and email access to Dr. Clemens. This direct line of communication is one of the core benefits of membership. You do not need to go through an answering service or wait for a callback through a general staff line.

Yes. Elite Internal Medicine offers both phone and secure video visits. Telehealth appointments carry no additional copay for members. This makes routine follow-ups, medication questions, and minor concerns easy to address without an in-office visit.

Most members schedule same-day or next-day appointments. Dr. Clemens keeps his panel small, which allows him to stay available when patients need him. You will not wait weeks for access to your doctor.

Dr. Clemens covers a broad range of primary care needs, including preventive care, chronic disease management, weight loss, hormone therapy for menopause and perimenopause, hypertension, prediabetes and type 2 diabetes, insomnia, fatigue evaluation, musculoskeletal pain, and cancer screenings. He also performs skin lesion evaluations using dermatoscopy, photographic monitoring, biopsy, cryotherapy, and topical treatments. Advanced metabolic and cardiovascular lab testing, cognitive screening, and sleep study coordination are also available.

The practice does not bill insurance for membership fees. However, it accepts HSA and FSA accounts as payment. Patients should keep their insurance active to cover services outside the scope of primary care, such as hospitalizations, specialist visits, and imaging.

Yes, and he takes a deliberate approach to prescribing. Dr. Clemens looks for lifestyle and rehabilitative solutions before reaching for a prescription. When medications are appropriate, he works to find the most cost-effective options, including equivalent lower-cost drugs, Canadian mail order pharmacies, and compounding pharmacies.
