Dr. Mark Machalka practices at Whole Family Direct Care in Albion.
Machalka is drawn to the Direct Primary Care model for what it takes out of the equation. Removing insurance from the picture of health care and replacing it with a low monthly membership fee, in Machalka's view, makes care simpler and more direct.
At the center of that approach is the relationship between doctor and patient. Machalka has watched that bond get chipped away under the current medical system, and the goal at Whole Family Direct Care is to bring it back.
