Christopher Hughes, MD

Dr. Christopher Hughes is a physician at DirectMD Virtual Primary Care, bringing more than 25 years of experience to his patients. He earned his medical degree from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center School of Medicine in 1999 and completed his internship at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas.

As an online physician, Hughes built his practice around an alternative to the long lines, sterile waiting rooms, and hassle that often come with a traditional doctor's visit. The direct care model lets him spend more time with each patient, communicate one-on-one, and provide comprehensive care while building a real patient-physician relationship. Creating a safe space for patients to share their story is central to how he practices.

He is licensed in Texas, Massachusetts, and Utah.
