Valle Health

Valle Health offers two membership tracks. Dr. Ward's concierge membership costs $4,200 per year and includes all medical services, a yearly executive physical, body composition monitoring, and 24-hour access to his personal cell phone. The Direct Primary Care membership with Taelor costs $1,800 per year and covers regular office visits and a set of basic labs. A la carte services are also available on a cash-only basis for patients not seeking an ongoing membership.

The concierge membership at $4,200 per year includes access to all medical services, a yearly executive physical, InBody body composition monitoring, and 24-hour direct access to Dr. Ward. Other office visits bill through insurance as normal. The membership creates a direct relationship with your doctor and access to same or next-day appointments.

The DPC membership costs $1,800 per year. It covers regular office visits and a core set of basic labs. Valle Health does not bill insurance under this model. It suits patients who want straightforward primary care access without the full concierge tier.

First visits at Valle Health run approximately two hours. That time allows Dr. Ward to conduct a thorough review of your health history, establish goals, and build a personalized plan. Couples and families can schedule group visits together.

It depends on your membership type. The concierge membership bills other office visits through insurance normally. The DPC membership does not involve insurance billing at all. A la carte services run on a cash-only basis.

Valle Health charges $50 for an initial scan with a detailed explanation, and $30 for follow-up scans. Members use the results to track changes in body composition and refine their fitness and nutrition plans.
