About

At LAPIS Family Medicine, two board-certified osteopathic physicians bring full-spectrum family medicine to Tacoma's Hilltop neighborhood. Dr. Allyson Campanelli and Dr. Mua Ngo founded the practice after leaving corporate medicine. They wanted time to truly know their patients and build care plans together.

The practice runs on a flat monthly fee of $150, with no copays, deductibles, or per-visit charges. Children under 13 pay $75 per month. New patient visits run a full 60 minutes. Both doctors offer same-day acute appointments, telemedicine, and direct text access. Patients who text reach their doctors directly, not a call center or AI. The Hilltop office includes a community garden, a little free library, and coffee in the lobby. Clinical services span chronic disease management, addiction medicine, gender-affirming care, obesity and lifestyle medicine, osteopathic manipulation therapy, mental health, ADHD, women's health, men's health, and a range of in-office procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

LAPIS Family Medicine charges a flat monthly fee of $150 for adults. Children aged 0 to 12 pay $75 per month. That fee covers all care at the clinic, including physicals, procedures, and chronic and acute visits. The practice charges no copays, no deductibles, and no per-visit fees. Patients never receive a surprise bill.

LAPIS does not bill insurance for membership or visits. The practice cuts out insurance companies entirely to reduce costs and administrative burden. Many members keep a high-deductible plan or a health-sharing plan for hospitalizations, imaging, or specialist care. The practice helps members find the most cost-effective path for any care that falls outside the clinic.

New patient visits run 60 minutes. Regular visits for chronic conditions are 45 minutes. Quick visits for acute issues, osteopathic manipulation, and virtual appointments run 30 minutes. The practice aims for little to no waiting room time. Visit length scales to what each patient actually needs.

Yes. LAPIS holds same-day appointments specifically for acute concerns. Those slots do not appear in the online scheduler so they stay available. Patients text the doctors directly to request one. For minor acute issues like UTIs or colds, the doctors can sometimes handle the visit by text or video call.

Members text their doctors directly. When you send a message, Dr. Campanelli or Dr. Ngo responds personally. No AI, no call center, and no answering service sits between patients and their doctors. The practice typically responds within hours to days. Refill requests and scheduling go through direct text as well.

Yes. LAPIS offers virtual visits for acute concerns, single-problem visits, and mental health appointments. Virtual visits run 30 minutes. The doctors note that some issues, like rashes, work better in person. Patients can schedule virtual visits through the online portal or request one by texting the practice.

LAPIS sees patients of all ages, from newborns through older adults. The practice describes its training as full-spectrum, cradle-to-grave family medicine. The reduced monthly rate for children 12 and under makes it straightforward for families to enroll everyone under one roof.

LAPIS runs several specialty clinics alongside standard family medicine. These include addiction medicine, gender-affirming care, obesity and lifestyle medicine, and osteopathic manipulation therapy. The practice also handles mental health, ADHD management, women's health, men's health, and a range of in-office procedures including joint injections, skin biopsies, laceration repair, nerve blocks, and wound care.

Osteopathic manipulation therapy, or OMT, is a hands-on treatment that draws on principles from physical therapy, massage therapy, and musculoskeletal medicine. Both Dr. Campanelli and Dr. Ngo trained as DOs and perform OMT in the clinic. OMT visits run 30 minutes and require a separate appointment. The practice recommends wearing comfortable clothing.

New patients sign up directly through the LAPIS membership portal on the practice website. After completing enrollment, new members schedule a 60-minute new patient visit. The practice accepts new members on a rolling basis. 1308 with questions before signing up.
