Membership-based primary care comes to Homewood

We are excited to share that Dr. Efe Sahinoglu and his practice, Birmingham Direct Primary Care, has been featured in the Homewood Star Journal! The article succinctly details Dr. Efe’s journey opening Birmingham DPC in 2018 with the goal to actively serve the community by providing a membership-based primary care clinic.

Birmingham DPC is unique in that it provides individualized, unrushed medical care while cutting out unnecessary costs, insurance barriers, and long-wait times! In fact, Birmingham DPC members are often able to get a same-day appointment. Members of Birmingham DPC have access to in-person visits, telemedicine calls, email, and texting communication with Dr. Efe, and this includes after hours and weekends for urgent matters.
