About

At Fulcrum Family Health, three physicians deliver direct primary care built on a simple conviction: medicine works best when doctors truly know their patients. Dr. Lisa Lucas founded the Freeport, Maine practice in 2019. She designed it around affordable, accessible care grounded in strong physician-patient relationships. The practice name reflects its core philosophy: a fulcrum is the essential pivot point that makes the whole thing work.

Dr. Lisa Lucas leads the team with deep expertise in metabolic health and menopause care. Dr. Joanna Rulf brings integrative medicine, medical acupuncture, and osteopathic manipulation to the practice. Dr. Catherine Batz focuses on preventive medicine, women's health, and osteopathic neuromusculoskeletal care. Membership costs $115 per month with no co-pays and no unexpected costs. Members receive same-day or next-day appointments, 60-minute wellness visits, direct physician access by phone, text, and portal, wholesale medications, and discounted labs. The practice also serves employers through DPC group plans and partners with Mending Health Insurance for integrated coverage in Cumberland County.
