Testimonials



"The easy communication with Dr. Klonel through Direct Primary Care is the kind of medical care that works best for me. It eliminates all the worry, anxiety, frustration, and waiting that used to be caused by having to go through middle people (receptionists, nurses, etc.) just to get an appointment or a rare call-back. Now I can text, email, or call her directly and get a quick response and the help or solution I need. It is such a relief to have this kind of attention. That relief and direct contact makes all the difference to me and my health."  -EB-


"Hearthside Family Health is a whole different way of doing primary care health care. It's called Direct Primary Care. You actually have a relationship with Siobhan (the practitioner and owner of the practice). You can pick up the phone and call her - direct line - no gatekeepers, no waiting weeks (or months) to get an appointment. After having to shuttle our kids in and out of different pediatric practices because of insurance network changes, and after having problems getting access to a practitioner when I needed it on short notice, I feel like my family is in so much better hands now - thanks to Siobhan. Also - she is awesome with kids! " -SB- 

"Finally: a Primary Care Practice where the health care professionals are not shackled by the normal 15-minute-encounter-time-limit model which has been imposed upon doctors by America's insurance corporations. Dr. Klonel performs a thorough, thoughtful physical exam, and she also strives to actually KNOW who her patients are."  -NQ-

"As a small business owner I am always trying to cut costs especially in health care. We made the switch and it was the best thing for my whole family. We now have a relationship with our healthcare provider and we are in great hands. Everything has been so easy from making an appointment to getting a refill on meds. What used to take days or weeks now is done in hours."         -SB-
