Primary Care the Way It Was Meant to Work. A Provider Who Knows You, With Time to Actually Listen.
Direct primary care (DPC) removes insurance as the intermediary between you and your provider. No prior authorizations. No 15-minute appointment slots designed around insurance billing. No referral gatekeeping. At Tactus Health, Dr. Ashar provides primary care as part of a fully integrated practice that also includes hormone optimization, weight management, and wellness services. Patients who see Dr. Ashar for primary care benefit from a provider who understands their full health picture, not just the issue that brought them in today.
What Dr. Ashar Provides in Primary Care
Direct Primary Care vs. Insurance-Based Primary Care
Insurance reimbursement models incentivize volume. The result is appointment slots that average 15 minutes, providers who see 25 to 30 patients per day, and clinical decisions constrained by what insurance will authorize. Important lab work requires prior authorization. Referrals require gatekeeping steps. Chronic conditions get managed in brief problem-focused visits with limited time for the broader health context.
Tactus Health is a direct-pay practice. We do not bill insurance. This eliminates prior authorization requirements, referral gatekeeping, and appointment time constraints imposed by billing optimization. Dr. Ashar spends the time your appointment actually requires. Your labs are reviewed thoroughly. Your questions are answered. And your primary care is integrated with the full clinical picture — hormones, weight management, and wellness — that our providers manage for you.
Dr. Ashar N.
Dr. Ashar holds a Doctor of Nursing Practice and two national board certifications, one in family practice and one in psychiatric mental health.
She founded Tactus Health to close the gap she watched her own family fall through: symptoms that were real, labs that came back normal, and no one willing to connect the two.
She is responsible for the protocols our medical team follows, and for the training of the clinicians who deliver them. Holding both certifications is why those protocols treat hormones, mood, sleep and metabolism as one system rather than five separate appointments.
