Concierge medicine in Fort Myers: what it is, how it works, and which plan is right for you
Most people have experienced it: you call your doctor’s office, wait days for an appointment, spend 10 minutes in the exam room, and leave feeling like you didn’t quite get the answers you were looking for. It’s not because your doctor doesn’t care, it’s because the traditional healthcare model wasn’t built to give physicians the time to truly know their patients.
Concierge medicine is a different approach. It’s personalized, proactive, and designed around you, not a schedule.
At VitallyDoc in Fort Myers, Dr. Mayelin Carpio offers three concierge membership plans — Vital Balance, Vital Care, and Vital Prime — plus an AgeWell Bank option for patients who want flexible access to treatments. Here’s everything you need to know to choose the right fit.
What is concierge medicine?
Concierge medicine, also called membership medicine or direct primary care, is a healthcare model where patients pay a membership fee in exchange for a higher level of access, time, and personalized care from their physician. Instead of seeing dozens of patients per day, concierge physicians like Dr. Carpio limit their practice size. This means every patient gets more time, a physician who knows their full health history, and real access when they need it, not just when the schedule allows. The model has grown significantly as patients in their 40s, 50s, and 60s have become frustrated with rushed appointments and reactive care. Concierge medicine flips that: it’s proactive, preventive, and built around long-term wellness.
What all VitallyDoc concierge memberships include
Regardless of which plan you choose, every VitallyDoc concierge membership includes a
foundation of comprehensive, preventive care that goes well beyond what a standard annual
physical provides:
● Annual Wellness Exam — comprehensive, with Dr. Carpio
● Annual Lab Panel — full hormone, metabolic, and cardiovascular markers
● Annual EKG
● 3D Body Composition Scan — to track muscle mass, fat, and metabolic health over
time
● Direct messaging with Dr. Carpio and the care team
● Online access to your health records
● Same-day or next-day appointment priority
● Discounts on IV therapy, EmpowerRF, laser treatments, and more

Does concierge medicine replace my insurance?
No. Concierge membership at VitallyDoc is not insurance and does not replace your existing health coverage. It works alongside it. Your insurance continues to cover hospitalizations, specialist visits, imaging, and major medical events. Your VitallyDoc membership covers what insurance typically doesn’t: personalized, proactive primary care with real access to your physician. Many members find that the preventive approach, catching issues early, monitoring labs, and managing hormonal and metabolic health proactively, reduces their overall healthcare costs and urgent care visits over time.
