CONROE, TX - Medical insurance costs are skyrocketing making families go without necessary care for routine exams. Advocate Direct Care delivers old fashioned family physician services at affordable costs in a monthly rate with unlimited visits, no copays, and highly increased access to your physician via a text message, video chat, or an app on your phone.

Dr. Hannah Shelton started her business, Advocate Direct Care, in the Fall of 2018 and recently acquired a new office at 303 Longmire Road, Suite 501 in Conroe behind the Conroe High School football stadium in the Brownstone Office Condos. Advocating for quality healthcare in an affordable, timely, and personalized manner without the wait for an appointment is why she started her practice.

Dr. Hannah Shelton is excited about her practice. “Choosing family medicine as my specialty was an easy decision because I value building relationships with patients and their families. In addition, I have found it extremely rewarding in caring for patients of all ages, infants to the elderly.”

Every monthly membership includes unlimited visits without copays for office visits or procedures. Simple stitches, cryotherapy, injections, prescriptions, and EKG’s are handled in the office at no cost, while external lab work, MRI’s, and other external imaging is negotiated at up to 90% discounts! A monthly fee for a child or youth under 18 years of age is $20 a month, $50 a month for adults up to age 44, 45 years to 64 age adults is $75 each month, and seniors 65 and older are $100 a month! That is affordable!

The current fee for service model of medicine prevents Dr. Shelton from practicing medicine the way she learned from her grandfather 40 years ago. He would visit his patients with a leather bag and take care of their needs in a personal, caring manner. “I hope to return primary care to its roots with a direct, uninterrupted relationship between doctor and patient”, said Dr. Shelton. Dr. Shelton has vowed to keep the practice at a manageable level to maintain personalized care for all patients. New patients are encouraged to schedule appointments before the level of care reaches capacity.

Dr. Shelton was raised in the Dallas area and ran cross country while attending Highland Park High School. She received her degree in psychology from the University of Georgia and her master’s degree in Texas in Biomedical Sciences from the University of North Texas Health Science. She completed her Doctor of Medicine at the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine in Fort Worth. She loves living in Montgomery County and learned a lot while completing her residency in Conroe at Lone Star Family Clinic. Dr. Shelton is a member of the Conroe/Lake Conroe Chamber of Commerce and Montgomery County Association of Business Women.

Her business is growing through referrals from patients but there is never a wait to get an appointment or to receive communication back from the doctor. Her commitment to not only in office care, but also finding the lowest cost for prescriptions and external medical procedures is way beyond what any other physician does for their patients.

“Dr. Hannah is SO responsive!!! Love having a doc that really listens to me and is concerned for my well being!!!”, said patient Helen Thornton, Thornton Financial Services. “This is the perfect medical plan for small businesses and your staff.”

Meet Dr. Shelton at her Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting Celebration on Wednesday, July 24 from 4:30-6:30 at her office location, 303 Longmire Road, Suite 501 in Conroe. Food, wine, tours, and prizes!
