Why Choose Direct Primary Care?
No Insurance Hassles
We use the term "direct" primary care because insurance is not involved. Avoid the algorithms, restrictions, and bureaucracy of traditional insurance.
No Hidden Fees
There is NO co-pay, No payment contract, No annual fee, and No cancellation fee with any Valor Direct Primary Care membership.
Same-Day Appointments
Our members don't have to wait weeks to see their providers. Enjoy same-day or next business day appointments when you need care.
Taking control of your healthcare shouldn't be complicated. Our subscription model makes quality care accessible and straightforward.
Limited Patient Enrollment - More Time For You
Traditional primary care enrolls an average of 1,250 to 1,500 patients to each medical provider. At Valor Direct Primary Care, we're different:
  • We enroll only half that amount of patients per provider
  • Our 2 medical providers, Dr. Heerema and PA McGarvey, share this limited patient pool
  • This allows us to offer our full attention and time to each member
  • You receive personalized care without feeling rushed
When you take control of your health with Valor, you're choosing a practice that values quality over quantity.
Our Expertise - Experience That Matters
Valor Direct Primary Care will focus on your primary and urgent care needs with providers who bring exceptional experience to your healthcare:
  • Extensive experience in clinical settings
  • Background in executive medicine
  • Experience in austere environments
  • Commitment to personalized patient care
Taking control of your health means choosing providers with the expertise to guide you effectively through your healthcare journey.

The Valor Patient Experience
Dr. Heerema and PA McGarvey spend significantly more time with our patients because both providers keep their empanelments capped at a small number.
This patient-centered approach allows us to offer:
  • Same day appointments or next business day appointments
  • Unhurried consultations focused on your needs
  • Direct access to your providers
  • Personal attention that makes a difference
Don't be surprised if either of our providers answer the phone when you call our main office number. That's the level of personal service we provide.
