Affordable medical testing isn’t a myth. A direct primary care membership includes a range of in-office medical tests and procedures for children and adults. Instead of dealing with insurance and other bureaucratic “hoops”, Bluewater Family Wellness members simply pay a monthly membership fee and schedule medical testing when they need it.
Why Get In-Office Testing?
Sure, it’s tough to leave home when you’re not feeling your best, but in-office medical testing has its advantages. These tests tend to have more accurate and comprehensive results, and tend to be less prone to defect and error than at-home tests.
If you’ve ever done an at-home test for an illness and still felt poorly after a negative result, you probably wondered: If it’s not that, then what is it?! Testing in our office allows your healthcare team to assess your results and recommend next steps to help you get the answers you need to feel better.

What if I Need a Test That’s Not Listed?
We provide some medical testing at an additional cost, including in-home visits for adult and children. If you need a medical test that’s not listed here, your care team will alert you to additional costs. If there’s a test you need that we don’t provide, we’re happy to make recommendations for where to get the testing completed so you can get the care you need.
Do I Have to Feel Unwell to Get Testing?
You can get testing that’s included with your membership even when you’re feeling well. It can be beneficial to be proactive or to explore diagnostics you’ve been curious about. You’ll have a more detailed understanding of your health, and you can explore whether or not issues that may be present in your family history are present for you.
