About

At Zion Asher Family Physicians, Dr. Lyman Wostrel and Dr. Lauren Wostrel deliver root-cause primary care to working families across Southwest Missouri. The husband-and-wife team opened their Mount Vernon clinic on September 23, 2019. Both physicians trained at Ross University School of Medicine and completed their family medicine residencies at Kern Medical, a UCLA-affiliated safety-net hospital in California.

The practice runs a flat-fee DPC model starting at $79 per month. Standard membership covers the typical primary care needs of most families, while a DPC + Extended Access tier adds more frequent communication and after-hours phone access. Appointments run 45 minutes, and the practice offers same-day visits, telemedicine, and house calls. The clinical scope runs well beyond routine primary care. Zion Asher offers DUTCH hormone testing, PRP joint injections, sublingual immunotherapy using the La Cross Method, physician-supervised weight loss with tirzepatide and semaglutide, and wholesale prescription dispensing. Each physician caps their panel at 500 to 600 patients to keep care thorough and attentive.
