No two people are the same. But when it comes to primary care, we’re often treated with one-size-fits-all solutions. One Medical is the revolutionary healthcare company changing the way we receive primary care. One Medical is primary care the way it’s supposed to be: personalized, enjoyable, and efficient, with exceptional care and better health outcomes. Now, One Medical has arrived in Houston, offering seamlessly integrated digital health and in-office care with an affordable, membership-based model.
“Everyone should be entitled to healthcare to ensure we’re living our best lives,” says Rekha Avirah, MD, district medical director for One Medical in Houston. “One Medical’s goal is to really impact a patient’s health and optimize their care to reduce hospitalization.”
Through a blend of human-centered design, technology, and an exceptional team, One Medical members enjoy unparalleled access to comprehensive care at calming offices in 6 Houston locations near where you work, live, and shop. And while some assume this kind of care is out of reach, the real coup of One Medical is its accessibility.

Personalized Care, On Demand
One Medical is different from other healthcare providers. For One Medical members, seeing your primary care physician is no longer an ordeal. Forget long wait times, stuffy medical offices, and inconvenient appointments. One Medical members enjoy same-day or next-day in-person or remote appointments, 24/7 access to their Virtual Care team, on-site lab testing that is quick and convenient, and the chance to have a rewarding relationship with their provider.
“One Medical is all about being accessible,” shares Dr. Avirah, who’s been with the company for 11 years and is now excited to be providing care in Houston. “With same or next-day appointments, connecting for wellness checkups and preventative care is easy. Plus, we get to spend a lot of time with our patients, so we get to know their individual risk factors and motivators, which helps us provide better care.”
As summer approaches, Dr. Avirah offers some tips on how to enjoy the outdoors while staying healthy.
“When you’re out taking advantage of Houston’s many trails and parks, remember to stay hydrated.” Dr. Avirah recommends drinking water in the morning and carrying a disposable water bottle with you throughout your summer activities.
“On beach days, make sure you’re wearing broad spectrum sunblock with at least 30 SPF and that you reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating.”
Lastly, when you travel, plan ahead. “One Medical can assist with things like vaccines or medications needed for travel. Make yourself a travel health kit with items like pain meds, bandages, and antibiotic ointment for wounds. Think about how travel might affect your health and remember to fill your prescription!”
One Medical is the future of primary care. For families with young children, people who suffer from chronic illnesses, the elderly, those who are prone to viruses, ailments, recurring illnesses, or mental health concerns, or anyone who sees a physician regularly, One Medical can make a huge difference in their health.
“With One Medical, we make it easy to get the care you deserve,” says Dr. Avirah. “Be proactive about your health and see if we’re the right fit for you.”

at ease.

For primary care physicians like Dr. Avirah, One Medical’s direct-to-consumer model allows her to spend time with every patient she sees, providing her the opportunity to really get to know her patients and individualize a care plan just for them. According to a recent review by USA Today, this kind of personal, compassionate care has real-world benefits when paired with One Medical’s accessibility, encouraging patients to seek help for issues that could be more serious than they realize, issues they might ignore because of the time and expense of visiting a doctor’s office. It’s all part of One Medical’s mission to not only provide quality treatment, but also offer preventative strategies so their members can avoid getting sick in the first place.
“As primary care providers, we’re your point person to manage care,” explains Dr. Avirah. “We understand what motivates you to take an active role in your health care.”
Another advantage for patients is the One Medical experience itself. When a new patient visits any of the One Medical locations across the US, they’re immediately struck by how different the patient experience is compared to all other healthcare facilities. One Medical’s Houston locations are no different, with bright, relaxed, welcoming faculties that make seeing your doctor fun and encouraging. Appointments start on time, with members greeted in the comfortable lobby by their primary care physician themselves. Appointments are personal and in-depth, combining human connection and state-of-the-art technology to reach a nuanced understanding of each member’s health drivers.
Because One Medical is a tech-based company, the One Medical virtual experience functions at a level above all other healthcare providers. Members can easily navigate the intuitive app to speak with a doctor anytime, anywhere, avoiding costly and time intensive urgent care visits. Prescription refills are a cinch and members who travel for work have the peace of mind of on demand care, wherever they are in the world. If in-person care is needed, members can visit a One Medical location in any of the 20+ major US markets they serve. One Medical has partnered with Houston Methodist in the Houston area to offer seamless access and coordination across primary and specialty care services.
