Insurance has caused us and our patients too many problems and we provide better care without it. You will find our monthly membership fee worth it for the quality of care we provide. Many patients find they easily make up for their membership fee in the amount we help them to save in co-pays, medications, and staying out of expensive urgent cares.

We have a whole page here on our web site to list what you get for that membership fee. Basically you get any appointments you need, without even a copay, as many or as few as required, as well as the ability to reach your doctor easily. Even when you're out of town and need something urgently called in, Dr. Langley is there for you! You get the benefits of Dr. Langley's extensive family medicine training and ability to perform numerous procedures. You get longer appointment times, 30 min to an hour at a time, often scheduled in the next day or two.

What many of my patients notice is that they only go to the doctor once or twice a year because it’s so hard to be seen in the insurance-driven system.  But when you have a relationship with your physician and they are easy to get ahold of, all of a sudden there are more things you realize you can ask.  The ankle sprain that you could probably treat by yourself?  Instead, you can reach out and make sure you’re doing the right home rehab.  The rash that will probably go away by itself?  Why not text a photo of your skin to your physician to see if there’s meds you don’t know of that might help.  Now you have your own highly trained expert that you don't have to worry about bothering - that's what you're paying for! Many folks find they are healthier when they are encouraged to get a physician's advice more often in this way. When you are already paying for it, you might as well use it! Much better than the ‘sick care’ you get through insurance.

Unfortunately Colorado is one of the few states that restrict DPC doctors from seeing Medicaid patients.  We know it is so hard to find a doctor who has open slots for Medicaid patients, and we hate that, and we continue to petition the government to change the law.  No luck so far!

Medicare beneficiaries are required to sign a waiver that they will not submit our membership fee to Medicare for reimbursement.  But after that, it's the same as any other insurance; sometimes it’s less expensive to get labs, imaging, or medications through our office.  Our doctor can always send those orders to other pharmacies and facilities to have them covered by Medicare.  You may have to do your own research as to what is the best option for you.

We have open appointments, but we are not an urgent care.  We specialize in long-term relationships with our patients, rather than one time visits. We like to have your first interaction be a leisurely hour-long appointment to really get into all your medical history, and that's not always possible today.

We want to make it easy for you!  We accept credit and debit cards, HSA/FSA cards (double check with your HR that this is OK!), ACH transfer with no fees at all, also PayPal and Venmo and good old fashioned cash and checks.  You have enough to worry about, do whatever works best for you.

I certainly don’t want to give you medicine that you aren’t going to take.  I’m not your mother, and I can’t make you do things you don’t want to do.  You are paying me for my opinion on how to be healthier, and that is what I will provide.  I am a big fan of taking pills that science has shown make people live longer - double-blinded placebo-controlled studies are the best.  I am an even bigger fan of lifestyle changes that often make those pills unnecessary.  Let’s talk about what is possible in your life right now to change, and use pills in the meantime to make your health better until you are in a place to make those other changes.  I want you to be able to do all the things you want in your life, without your body holding you back.  But I’m not going to nag you into taking pills, I’m not even going to make you see me.  I am your paid consultant for your health.

If we have placed a chronic medication for you before, we will renew it automatically. If something fell through the cracks, we are easy to reach, so just call or email us. We are often with patients, but check messages frequently throughout the day.  Give us a weeks worth of lead time on routine refills, and please respect our time on the weekends and avoid refill requests via text or our emergency call line.  We can also leave your meds in our convenient lockers and text you with the combination to pick up your medicine, so even if the office is closed you can stop by.  The building is unlocked Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.; Saturday 7:00 to 5:00 and closed on Sundays

After paying $250 to enroll and get you set up with the clinic, you will pay a monthly membership fee based on your age.  If you discontinue your membership and want to re-enroll, we will charge you a higher enrollment fee each time, as that is not the best way for our patient-doctor relationship to work.  We want to be taking care of you all the time, not on-and-off.

Direct Primary Caremeans paying your doctor directly, instead of paying an insurance company to pay your doctor. Dr. Langley wants to work for YOU, not the insurance company. When you pay your doctor directly, there is no question of who Dr. Langley is looking out for when making recommendations for your health. This results in a happier doctor with more time to spend with you (getting paid by insurance companies takes a lot of time and headaches!), and happier patients that get better care.

We don't recommend it.  Having a doctor who you trust is important, as medical emergencies are never expected.  We will ask you to sign a contract to stay for at least 30 days, so plan to pay for the enrollment fee and at least 2 months of membership.  Once you see how well we take care of you, we hope you'll stay longer.  And remember, if you cancel and then re-enroll in the future, the enrollment fee will double every time, or we might not have space for you to enroll at all.

Absolutely. Our low monthly fees only work and hold your space open at our clinic if you pay monthly. You can do the math yourself, but a year with us is less expensive than 3 visits with an urgent care. If you are worried you aren't getting your money's worth, then come in more often! We are happy to have visits to check in, get advice, or for help with more complicated issues like weight loss, anxiety, grief, or depression.  There’s always something more we can do to take care of ourselves!

We hear over and over again that it's hard to get into see your doctor, that wait times are outrageous, that you only get to mention one or two issues at a time, and then you have to pay another co-pay for another appointment!  That's exactly what we got rid of with direct primary care.  A lot of our patients have insurance, and choose to get the best of both worlds - great care here, and insurance coverage for high cost items.  We even have employers who pay for it to help attract and keep the best employees, and college students who sign up with us especially if they are from out of state.

Just like car insurance, the goal of insurance is to never have to use it, but to have it just in case.  Our office will not be able to cover a surgery or hospitalization, and those things can get expensive fast.  A high deductible insurance plan tends to be less expensive month-to-month, and will help you just in case you have a truly expensive medical situation.  Healthshares are also becoming popular as an alternative, and are worth looking into. Many patients use HSA or FSA cards from their employer to pay for our services, too.

I will need a signature on our membership agreement. And you’ll need to opt in to receiving texts from me. And we will likely need to request records from your last doctor. And if you are 65+ I’ll need a Medicare contract. And if you’ll need controlled medication, there is a contract for that.

Dr. Langley lives on 5 acres with a bunch of animals and a big garden, because that’s what she enjoys in her spare time.  There is a movement for modern homesteaders to not only be creating food for their families, but also to be working to heal the ground from damage done to it in the past.  She has very similar goals in her medical care; to not only provide care for your wart today, but also to work over years of relationship together to heal the damage done in the past. Whether from doctors rushing through the appointment and not thinking out what they were saying to you and how they were saying it.  Or theories about how calories in and out is all that matters in your weight.

Our clinic is located near what used to be the tiny towns of Husted and Edgerton. Visit the nearby Western Museum of Mining & Industry to learn more, but we think that’s pretty cool and a part of our heritage. Just as the original residents of those towns, and even further back to the Utes, had to learn and adapt to live here, so must our clinic teach and work with the community to thrive. With so much raw data as well as opinion pieces available on the internet, it's hard to know which is which, and having your own personal doctor that you can email with questions will help you make the right decisions!  Dr. Langley has worked as a teacher, enjoys public speaking, and even has a youtube channel because she just wants people to know more about their health.

If you’re looking for breakthrough state-of-the-art (expensive) technology, that’s not what we are about. If your health would be better by working in a relationship with a doctor you grow to trust and are comfortable with, come on in! And if you’re interested, you can also chat with Dr. Langley about her chickens, bees, geese, turkeys, pigs, and dairy cow.

Thank you for your service!  As a veteran and current reservist, Dr. Langley helps the Armed Forces by spending her own time caring for them personally.  We did our best to see how we could offer lower prices for veterans, but there are so many populations we want to accommodate and support, we decided to just offer lower prices for everyone.  We work very well with Tricare Select, giving you the long appointment times and easy access to your physician that is often missing on base or post, but still able to go to the clinic/MTF to get your medications, labs, imaging, and specialist referrals covered. Check out this video to learn more!

Ask us about our post-partum home visit program; after you have delivered Dr. Langley can visit your house for your initial infant weight check, lactation assessment, newborn screening lab, postpartum physical for mom, vitals check, counseling and education.  A female physician and experienced mother reassuring you in the comfort of your own home in the difficult postpartum period is worth the $300 pricetag for this unrepeatable time in your family’s life.

We currently work with Milestone Pediatrics and Vaxcare to offer immunizations at our office when pre-arranged to do so.  This means if we haven’t discussed it before the well visit, we won’t have them on hand!  But we can set up a future appointment or arrange a visit to a clinic on Woodmen where the fabulous doctors from Milestone Pediatrics can give them.  This can be arranged for both adults and kids, and can either use insurance or cash prices.  In addition,we love the El Paso County Health Department; we have had great personal experiences getting our own kids’ vaccines there.

Every week we meet to go for a walk with the community.  Find out more about why we do this by watching this video or visiting this web site.  To get emailed updates of when and where we are meeting, especially during snowy or inclement weather,sign up here.

No.  The best way to learn about our services is here on our web site.  We have a small staff, so all appointments and lab draws need to be scheduled ahead of time.

No.  As a family medicine doctor I appreciate the wide variety of ways we can treat pain, and will work to find one that works for you.  However, we are not a good option for managing chronic opioids/narcotics.

No.  Although we hate waiting at pharmacies as much as the next person, sometimes the least expensive chronic medications come from the pharmacy and so we won’t bother stocking those.  We tend to have common antibiotics so you don’t have to wait at the pharmacy when you are sick!  And we never have controlled substances on site.

Yes, with a prior diagnosis, but we have none of these medications available on site.

If it’s an emergency, call 911 or go to the ER.  Otherwise, we are there for you!  The best way to get ahold of us for an urgent situation at night is to text the after-hours number, and then call it.  On weekends, a text is usually easiest to answer in between taking care of our own kids.  Emails are the slowest way for get ahold of us, but are handy for non-urgent concerns.  Sometimes it’s good to have a doctor’s opinion on where to go (ER? independent ER?  urgent care?), and sometimes with a little more information from your doctor on dangerous signs and symptoms to watch for, you can rest easily knowing that it’s not as urgent as you thought.  Dr. Langley can even call some medications across state lines for you.  But no other clinics or urgent cares are covered by your membership fee.

You have access to your doctor’s personal cell phone, which doesn’t get answered when she’s in the shower, and might get left behind on a walk around the neighborhood with her kids, and sometimes doesn’t get great service when she goes skiing.  Please keep that in mind and watch what time it is for non-urgent situations.  Quiet time from 8 pm to 8 am is a good guideline.

Yes!  We encourage vaccines, but if you choose not to get them, we would still rather see your kids for regular health checkups than not!  We will still mention them and be open to discussion about immunizations, but respect your choices.

Dr. Langley can do a lot as a family physician, and she prides herself on keeping very personal physical exams to a minimum - sometimes you can collect a swab yourself for her to evaluate for yeast or bacterial vaginosis.  Sometimes an exam is really necessary to evaluate rashes, bumps, or other symptoms.  Dr. Langley will do her very best to keep you in charge of sensitive exams, and will talk you through a pap smear to screen for cervical cancer.  We can help with other common issues like leaking urine, uncomfortable sex, and breast concerns.  You might need a gynecologist eventually, but see us first and maybe we can get things started in the right direction.

You are so welcome here!  We love taking care of EVERYone, all ages and stages, as a family doctor.

The great thing about our clinic is if there’s something extra, we can talk with you about what it will cost.  Sometimes when someone else is charging (like for pathology or labs) the prices can change a bit without them notifying us.  But we’ll still get you in the ballpark of price for medications, labs, imaging, and pathology review.

It’s nice when things that cut down our overhead also help the environment!  We use re-usable tools and linens whenever possible, with the help of our autoclave and laundry down the hall.  We have the option of ceramic coffee cups instead of disposable, and recycle as much as we can.

Reach out to us and let’s see what we can work out.  We have an option for donating to other patient’s medical care here.

Paying your physician directly rather than through an insurance company is a great way to keep your money in the community!  You are also helping a woman-owned, veteran-owned business who donates a percentage of care to the community through organizations like Tri-Lakes Cares.  Dr. Langley volunteers locally with her church as well as through the Colorado Springs Osteopathic Foundation on their grant committee, to ensure worth local charities receive amazing grants.

Working as a physician gives us a unique opportunity to act in people’s lives.  A doctor’s visit is a memorable event, even though it’s what a doctor does all day.  Sometimes there is hard news to hear, sometimes it’s the worst day of someone’s life.  It is an honor to be in this role, and faith encourages us to act with great love and compassion.  There are medications that Dr. Langley won’t prescribe, and procedures she won’t participate in, but above all she seeks to love each individual she works with, just the way they are.

We offer ear piercing with a medical grade device done by a physician with a single-use cartridge, and in a clean and safe clinical environment. We charge $97 for both ears, including standard medical plastic stud earrings, for members. Additional cost for non members and for numbing topical cream.

Do not touch your ears without washing your hands first for 2 weeks.  Leave your initial studs in for at least 6 weeks, and once you remove them do not use them again (you can buy new earrings here) - they are a wider diameter of stud meant for establishing new holes, and will likely traumatize the healed skin if you try to re-insert them.  Clean them with soap and water or sterile saline twice a day on both side of the ear for the first 10-15 days.  Avoid swimming and hot tubs for AT LEAST 48 hr after getting them pierced.  Contact us with any concerns for infection, including increased pain, swelling, redness, or discharge.
