at Inner Journey Healthcare
Your Guide to Whole-Person Healthcare Coming This Summer!
…but everyone calls me Dr. Joey (she/her). With over 24 years of experience in diverse healthcare settings, I view health as a lifelong journey shaped by key decisions and daily choices. My goal is to empower individuals and families to take charge of their wellness journey with personalized, patient-centered care. Through Primary Care Consulting, I help untangle health challenges, provide second opinions, and support collaborative care with specialists, ensuring you have clarity and confidence on your path to well-being.
The Core Pillars of Primary Care Consulting
Accessible, Flexible & Comprehensive Support
Receive care tailored to you—via phone, text, telehealth, or in-person—integrating services like mental health for a holistic approach.
Patient-Centered, Inclusive Care
Personalized, inclusive care that respects your culture, gender, neurodiversity, and values, empowering you with prevention-focused, stigma-free support.
Empowered Decision-Making and Advocacy
With longer appointments, education, and cost-benefit clarity, you’ll gain the confidence to make decisions that are right for you!
How We Support You
Talk with a Doc
Have a conversation with a doctor to explore your concerns, discuss options, and integrate treatments for deeper healing.
“Urgent-ish” Care
For lingering colds, gynecological issues, contraception, travel advice, and more. When you can’t see your regular doctor, we provide whole-person, family medicine-style care.
Second Opinions
Discuss treatment options, get a second opinion, brainstorm ideas, or affirm your current care.
Collaborative Care
Partnering with therapists, alternative providers, and specialists, we offer holistic, evidence-based care for a complete and connected approach.
Guided Coordination
Navigate your own or a loved one’s care with expert guidance. We can help connect the dots between multiple medical providers.
Education Visits
Learn to navigate the medical system, tackle aging parents’ needs, explore modern sex education, or host group sessions on gender, contraception, and more.
Examples of Our Consulting Services:
-
"I’ve been diagnosed with something scary and need to know more about treatment options, providers, and alternatives." I love to educate you about your diagnosis. I can help you prepare for your specialist or primary care appointments ahead of time.
-
"I have an urgent issue, like a UTI, vaginitis, cough, GERD, and more… but my PCP isn’t available today. Can I see you or schedule a telehealth appointment?" If I have an opening, I can assist with immediate concerns and guide you towards relief.
-
"I want to review my preventative care options, like bone density, colon cancer screening, and mammograms." Together, we’ll create a comprehensive plan tailored to your health priorities.
-
"Am I in menopause? Should I remove my IUD? What are my risks with menopause symptoms?" I can help you explore all your options—hormones, IUDs, hormone testing—and address your fears, costs, and wellness goals.
-
"My child is going through puberty, and I want an open, non-fear-based discussion about puberty, sex, contraception, and relationships." I can help create a safe, educational space to address these topics with compassion and understanding for your family or a group of friends.
-
"My parent just got out of the hospital and is confused about care." I can help you understand how you can help them make the best choices for care or medical decision-making at the end of life.
-
"I want to ensure my PCP is the right fit for gender care. Do you have other suggestions?" We can discuss your needs and explore options for gender-affirming care providers and treatment plans you can discuss with your specialist and primary care providers.
