Speck Health

Speck Health members pay a monthly fee in exchange for enhanced, relationship-based primary care. The membership covers a focus on lifestyle changes to improve long-term health and longevity. Members also receive 24/7 direct access to their physician, an annual CIMT ultrasound, and a yearly consult with an exercise physiologist.

Membership at Speck Health includes around-the-clock access to your doctor. That means you can reach your physician outside of standard office hours for questions, concerns, or urgent guidance. Patients consistently note that doctors respond to emails and calls promptly.

Every Speck Health member receives an annual carotid intimal medial thickness (CIMT) ultrasound as part of their membership. This test measures arterial wall thickness and helps detect early signs of cardiovascular disease. Dr. Speck uses this data as part of a proactive cardiovascular monitoring strategy.

Speck Health offers both. Dr. Sarah M. Speck provides membership cardiology services, while Dr. Cheryl Jacobs focuses on membership internal medicine. Patients can choose the provider whose specialty fits their primary health needs, and the two physicians work within an integrated, multidisciplinary framework.

Dr. Cheryl Jacobs accepts most major insurances for her internal medicine services. The monthly membership fee structure applies to the enhanced access and services that fall outside standard insurance billing. Contact the practice directly to confirm coverage details for your specific plan.
