The Benefits of Concierge Healthcare

Frequently Asked Questions

Having insurance is great for catastrophic care, labs and imaging. Vaccines will be covered through a 3rd party vaccine provider.

You will be able to book up to an hour of time per day. Booking is based on 20 minute increments. That means you get more than triple the time with your doctor compared to the regular 15 minutes with nurse, nurse practitioners and/or doctor.

There is NO CoPay. Your Membership covers all visits with no additional charges. A typical doctor visit involves a co-pay, co-insurance (testing not covered by your insurance plan), and higher and higher deductibles to meet. An ER or urgent care visit is even more expensive. With your Membership there are no surprise bills and all in-office procedures are covered at 100%. For the average family this will often SAVE you money in the long run in addition to the personalized and easily accessible care.

Your Membership can be canceled at any time provided a 60-day written or email notice is given.

Members can use phone and video calls to conduct visits. In many cases, questions can be answered and diagnoses can be made (or ruled out) without an office visit, saving you time and effort. However, when medically indicated it will be necessary to see your child in the office.

Dr. Nesmith is the only health care provider at Lighthouse Pediatrics. Unless exceptional circumstances occur, he will be the one providing your care.

Your membership is not a substitute for insurance. We strongly recommend families have insurance coverage. Your are healthy until you are not! Hospital bills, medications, imaging and laboratory can be a burden.

Not at this time. We will determine if offering a one-time visitor rate is something we should offer at some time in the future. This is a member-centric model so that we can provide the highest and best care to our members first. We strongly encourage families to join as a member and reap the many benefits of ongoing personalized care.

All rapid diagnostic tests, including strep tests, flu tests, COVID-19 tests and urinalysis are included in your membership fees.

Yes! You will be invited to participate in education-based seminars presented by local doctors, psychologists, therapists, speech therapists, Occupational therapists, teachers, diagnosticians, physical therapists, college and career counselors, nurses, family therapists and more

Our Mission
Lighthouses have historically served many vital purposes. Not only do they tell a mariner where to go but also alert them of potential dangers. To a tired sailor they provide hope of finally reaching their destination. The role of a parent parallels that of the lighthouse. Our mission at Lighthouse Pediatrics is to enable parents to fulfill this role in the best possible way. First and foremost, protecting our children, especially at the youngest of ages, from life’s inherent dangers. Care of the infant, immunizations, and home safety are examples. Second, guiding the child as they navigate the chaos of early childhood, the social dilemmas of elementary school, and the murky waters of adolescence. Last, as parents we should aspire to inspire our children to achieve great things in life. To give them hope and a vision of success. To provide a solid and unwavering pathway to being a responsible adult. Lighthouse Pediatrics is here to enable you as a parent to fulfill these roles to the best of your ability. Our focus on mental health, preventative medicine, and successful parenting strategies, while at the same time keeping your child physically healthy, will allow your child to thrive.
Thy Word is a Lamp unto my feet and a Light unto my path.
