About
At Virginia Direct Primary Care, Dr. Lindsey Neal runs a full-service family medicine clinic in downtown Charlottesville, Virginia. She opened the practice in 2021 with a clear goal: to deliver the kind of relationship-based care she envisioned during medical school. The practice earned the 2025 Charlottesville Chamber of Commerce Small Business of the Year award. That recognition reflects a genuine commitment to the community Dr. Neal serves.
VADPC handles a wide range of clinical needs, from acute and chronic illness management to preventive care, mental health support, menopause care, ADHD, and hospice coordination. Every visit runs 30 to 60 minutes. Members reach Dr. Neal by phone, email, secure text through the Spruce app, or telemedicine. The practice performs in-house blood draws and a broad range of procedures, so patients rarely need to travel elsewhere for routine testing. A dedicated Home Visit Only membership serves patients who need care at home. The practice maintains a limited panel to keep care thorough and personal, and a scholarship program makes membership accessible to patients with financial hardship.
