Located in the heart of McKinney, Texas, BloomMed is bringing an unusual, fresh approach to primary care and family medicine to the residents of the North Dallas suburbs.

BloomMed Brings Direct Primary Care to McKinney, Texas

Unlike conventional primary care practices, BloomMed uses the direct primary care (DPC) model, which eliminates the insurance intermediary and emphasizes strong patient-provider relationships, transparent pricing, and holistic primary care without the added expense and hassle of insurance.

Dr. Stephanie Cudjoe, a board-certified Family Medicine Physician, opened this innovative practice so she can bring her extensive experience and patient-centric approach to each person she treats.

Meet Dr. Stephanie Cudjoe

Stephanie Cudjoe, M.D., earned her undergraduate degrees in molecular biology and chemistry from Texas Lutheran University.

She completed her medical degree at UT Southwestern Medical School and followed it with a residency at Baylor Family Medicine.

Practicing in North Texas since 2008, Dr. Cudjoe has proven herself to be a hit with patients. According to US News, her patients give her consistent five-star reviews across multiple categories, her thoroughness of examination, her ability to answer questions, her provider follow-up, her attitude, the amount of time she spends with her patients, and patient inclusion in care decisions.

Dr. Cudjoe is a longtime advocate of natural medicine and responsible medication use. “The body has an innate ability to heal, all we have to do is provide the right environment.”

Outside of her practice, Dr. Cudjoe advocates for community health through writing and speaking engagements, works with a local medical ministry, and participates in church activities.

She enjoys sports, creative projects, and music with her husband and three children.

BloomMed’s Philosophy

Dr. Cudjoe and her staff believe that the body has an innate ability to heal itself – provided it is given the right environment.

With this central guiding tenet in mind, BloomMed’s approach is guided by these principles: 

  • Prepare: Create an optimal environment for health by removing toxins from the body and choosing health-promoting behaviors.
  • Feed: Choose foods that nourish and support growth.
  • Water: Hydration supports metabolic function and detoxification.
  • Sunlight: Nurture your spirituality.
  • Purpose: Finding meaning through creative and physical activities.
  • Care: Build a supportive network that offers encouragement and celebrates health.
  • Time: Recognize the importance of sleep, meditation, and patience.

What is Direct Primary Care?

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a method of providing primary care services in a more direct and personal way. It sidesteps traditional insurance altogether. Instead, DPC doctors charge patients a monthly, quarterly, or annual subscription, similar to a fitness club membership.

Enrollment includes unlimited primary care appointments for a predictable and affordable monthly or annual rate.

Without insurance companies calling the shots, DPC eliminates deductibles and copays, making primary care costs transparent and simple.

This also cuts down on the administrative burden, significantly reducing overhead costs. Consequently, physicians manage fewer patients, allowing for more personalized care and ample time with each patient.

Furthermore, because of the lower patient load, DPC clients often find that they can get same-day or next-day in-person or telemedicine appointments with their doctor, with minimal time spent in the waiting room.

For this reason, DPC is becoming increasingly popular among busy professionals and parents.

Services Offered

The services provided by BloomMed include the following:

  • Family Medicine
  • Comprehensive primary care services
  • Weight Loss
  • Supplements
  • In-Office Ultrasound
  • Medical Aesthetics
  • Rapid COVID-19 Testing

For a detailed list of services, visiting the BloomMed website or contacting their office directly is recommended.

Advantages of Direct Primary Care

DPC practices are operated by independent doctors, so services vary, but most DPC’s include the following in your membership: 

  • unlimited office visits, preventive care, and chronic disease management
  • acute illness treatment and basic pediatric services
  • telehealth services
  • in-office procedures and wellness guidance
  • medication monitoring and prescription management
  • extended appointment times and 24/7 access for select practices
  • discounted lab and imaging services

DPC Limitations

DPC primarily covers general wellness and chronic condition management. It does not include specialist care, ER visits, surgeries, or hospital stays. There’s no catastrophic coverage component. So you’ll need additional coverage for comprehensive protection against severe health emergencies.
