Services at My Dr. Carter
Two Ways to Get Care — Whichever Fits Your Life
MyDrCarter provides two care options designed for flexibility and convenience. Patients may choose a membership at $140 per month or access urgent care telemedicine, which accepts most insurance, and offers a $140 per visit self-pay rate. This allows patients to skip office and unnecessary ER visits while receiving real care delivered with real convenience.

- $140 self-pay rate per visit if you're uninsured or prefer not to bill insurance
