So Dr. Hemkes, why medicine and what pushed you toward practicing in your own terms, which is your direct primary care? What changed for you? How you ended up doing what you're doing?

Yeah, so I was always interested in science and family medicine.

I was drawn to because we got to take care of all different ages of patients.

You got to work in a variety of settings, urgent care in the hospital.

You got to deliver babies.

What drew me to direct primary care was because I had worked in the system for about 10 years, and I'd kind of seen this pressure being put on doctors to see more and more patients.

So you're spending shorter amounts of time with them and you kind of just felt rushed.

Is this, as you said, by intentions? So I guess what's the impact of this when patients have real access to doctors? What changes for them and also for the plants?
