Dr. Manali A. Shendrikar Joins Concierge Choice Physicians' Program

In a significant development for healthcare accessibility and personalized care, Dr. Manali A. Shendrikar, MD, MPH, has joined the ranks of Saint John's Physician Partners (SJPP) in Santa Monica as the latest medical professional to offer the Hybrid Choice™ Concierge Program from Concierge Choice Physicians (CCP). This innovative model aims to reshape the physician-patient relationship, emphasizing increased accessibility and personalized healthcare.

A New Era in Patient Care

Concierge Choice Physicians is a well-respected leader in concierge medical services, recognized for its commitment to enhancing patient experiences across the United States. With Dr. Shendrikar's addition to their team, patients can now benefit from a model that allows them to select a more personalized healthcare experience within a large healthcare organization.

The Hybrid Choice™ program differs from traditional concierge medicine models by allowing physicians like Dr. Shendrikar to maintain a connection with all their patients, while also providing the option for those who seek a deeper, more engaged relationship. This dual approach not only ensures that no patient is turned away but also facilitates better service for those who choose to enroll in the program.

Connecting Patients and Physicians

Dr. Shendrikar has expressed her enthusiasm for this new approach: "I want to be the go-to doctor for my patients—but that's not something that can be promised in such a demanding healthcare marketplace. This program allows patients to secure that kind of connectivity. It's a great option for many patients who feel they would benefit from the peace of mind that comes from knowing they will always see me at appointments. I’m looking forward to practicing in this more personalized style.”

By paying an annual fee, patients enrolled in her Hybrid Choice program gain access to a range of enhanced services beyond traditional consultations. This includes:

• - Extended Consultation Times: Patients spend more time discussing their health and wellness with Dr. Shendrikar.
• - Comprehensive Wellness Exams: The program emphasizes preventative health measures with detailed annual examinations.
• - Timely Appointments: Patients can expect that their appointments will start on time, minimizing wait periods.
• - Improved Communication: Patients have direct channels to communicate with Dr. Shendrikar, allowing for questions and consultations even after regular office hours.
• - Integrated Healthcare Coordination: The program ensures that patients receive comprehensive healthcare through collaboration with other medical professionals.
