About

At Grace Direct Primary Care, Dr. Nina Lucas delivers family medicine to patients of all ages in Elizabeth City, North Carolina. She opened the practice in June 2017 with a clear goal: bring accessible, affordable, high-quality care to her community. The practice operates on a flat monthly membership, currently set at $90 per month or $990 annually for adults under 65.

Dr. Lucas built the practice around unhurried visits averaging 37 minutes, with same-day and next-day sick appointments and little to no wait time. Members reach her after hours by phone, text, email, or video for acute concerns. The membership covers a broad scope of care, including annual physicals with EKG, well-child check-ups, sports physicals, chronic disease management, in-office lab work, and minor procedures such as joint injections, laceration repair, and skin lesion removal. Dr. Lucas also offers sublingual immunotherapy and skin allergy testing for members who need them. Home visits are available for patients who cannot reach the clinic.
