Welcome to your new medical home
Touchstone Internal Medicine was founded in 2012 by Dr. Anita Lane as a way to bring a new kind of medical care to her community. Today, she is joined by Dr. David Flick, continuing the tradition of providing simply exceptional care.
At Touchstone Internal Medicine, we pride ourselves on being a high-quality clinic that is dedicated to serving both individuals and the community. Our team of experienced healthcare professionals is committed to providing personalized care tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient. We believe in fostering a sense of community and strive to make a positive impact beyond the walls of our clinic. Trust Touchstone Internal Medicine to be your partner in health and wellness.
Our Approach
Medical care can feel like a cold, transactional process which may leave people feeling like the product of a business, rather than a person being cared for.
Our model is to return to the heart of the medical profession, seeking to establish meaningful relationships with our patients, provide them the highest quality of care, and enable them to live their best lives.
Concierge medicine
Like having a doctor in the family. Call, text, or email your doctor as problems or questions arise. No phone tree, no check-in line, no complicated portal. Same day and next day appointments available
No middleman
With direct primary care, the patient partners directly with the physician, no insurance. Without the bureaucracy and paperwork, our doctors are free to focus entirely on you and your well being.
Transparent pricing
Pay one fee for your medical care and leave the rest to us. We have an extra charge for home visits and after-hours treatment and nothing else.
