About
At Western Medicine, Dr. Orin Hansen delivers direct primary care to residents across Montana. He built the practice on the values he grew up with on a ranch in southeastern Montana: hard work, honesty, and looking out for neighbors. The practice operates without a physical office, serving patients entirely via telemedicine, with occasional in-person exams through a mobile unit. Western Medicine offers two membership tiers. The Prevention Plan starts at $10 per month, billed annually. The Cure Plan runs $160 per month and requires the base Prevention Plan. Members reach Dr. Hansen daily by text, phone, email, video chat, voice message, or photo sharing. The practice accepts individuals, families, and employers. Services span family medicine, preventive care, behavioral health, medication management, specialty referrals, and nutritional medicine education. Western Medicine does not accept insurance and does not prescribe chronic controlled substances.
