How to find a primary care doctor in San Jose
Finding the right doctor is critical for your health
Read on to get tips from our team of doctors, who’ve lived and worked in San Jose for more than 20 years!
The Problem
You don’t need a doctor until you do. All of a sudden you are sick, so you call the number on the insurance card, just to find out that their next appointment is in 3 weeks and the urgent care is booked. There is a triage nurse #, but they just tell you to go to the emergency room for everything. This is a city with over a million people! Why is it so hard to find a good primary care doctor in San Jose?
There are lots of reasons for this… the money-focused bureaucratic reality of modern medicine burning out doctors, economic forces pushing medical students toward the specialties, and many other reasons outside the scope of this paper. But you don’t really care about all that while you are sick, you just want to see a doctor, who can help you to get well, today.
The Traditional Solution
In the traditional system, you go to your insurance website or portal, look up primary care doctors, find one you like, then call them and make sure that they (1) actually accept patients with that insurance, and (2) have available appointments sometime soon. You will also want to verify that the appointment will be with the doctor you have chosen, and not someone else who the doctor is “supervising.” It can take hours to days to find a primary care doctor in San Jose.
The Healing Grove Solution!
At Healing Grove Health Center, we position ourselves outside of the broken medical system and keep our panel sizes low so that we can take excellent care of each of our patients. We charge $200/month for concierge medicine services, cutting out the middle man (insurance companies and their interests) and allowing us the luxury of focusing entirely on you, the patient. We answer the phone, we get to know you and your family, we understand your personality and your goals, and we can tailor your medical care to do what is right for you. We have same day appointments and even weekend and holiday appointments when needed, to keep our patients out of urgent cares, ERs, and hospitals as much as possible. We also have the flexibility to work within the system when needed for specialty care.

Zero Wait Time For Your Doctor
At other clinics, you wait in a waiting room, waste time filling out forms, and then wait some more for the doctor in the clinical rooms. At Healing Grove, you don’t wait for the doctor. The doctor is waiting for you!
Personal Relationship With Your Doctor
At Healing Grove, we build a personal relationship with you. We want to know what makes you tick, what you care about, and what you’re struggling with. We want to know about you and your family.
Connected To The US Healthcare System
When you need more than primary care, we guide you through the system. The US healthcare system is incredibly difficult to navigate, but our doctors have decades of combined experience in helping patients find the care they need. We use our relationships and personal networks to get you the very best healthcare available. Our doctors have the time to advocate for you – providing referrals, making phone calls, and even checking in to make sure you’re receiving the proper care.
Your Concierge Membership
A concierge medical care plan just for you – all that you need, and nothing you don’t. Healing Grove Health Center accepts HSA, HRA, and FSA.
This covers unlimited primary care, convenient physician access, health system navigation and advocacy, and invitations to our health, soul, and culture care programs. Plus, it gives TWO low-income members access to top-quality primary care!
This also makes a great gift for a loved one with significant health needs. We have a lot of experience working with uninsured people, so we know all of the secret cash-price deals in our area. This plan can be great for people with high-deductible health plans who avoid their doctors because of unreasonable co-pays and hidden fees. We find the most affordable meds, radiology, and lab tests in the South Bay, which are often less expensive than health plan co-pays.
