What is a micropractice?
A micropractice is a small medical practice model, usually a solo doctor or small group of physicians who work with minimal-to-no staff in order to spend more time caring for patients. Office systems are typically streamlined using technology to keep overhead low, which means that the clinician can have fewer patients that he or she is looking after. At Turner Family Health, Dr. Turner has chosen to look after a small number of patients, so she can give people the care and attention they deserve.
