A Message from Carlos Picone, MD

I have practiced medicine here in Washington DC for the past 28 years, and during this time I have had the privilege of caring for many of you and your families. It has been such an honor to be your physician and share in your quest for a healthy, active life.

I am constantly looking for new and better ways to provide you with a better healthcare experience. As you know from personal experience, our healthcare system is becoming extremely complex. From my perspective as an experienced physician, the many changes underway in healthcare will continue to affect our relationship and my ability to provide the highest quality service to you, my patients. After much reflection and soul-searching, I have decided that I do not want to compromise my diligent attention to your individual care.

Therefore, I am going to devote the next phase of my medical career to providing services for a smaller group of patients. We will work together, in partnership, to further optimize your well being. An important step in this process will be the development of your personalized wellness plan. We will meet and discuss the results of your examination and tests, identify areas on which we need to focus, and craft a wellness plan personalized just for you. We will work together to ensure that you are implementing your plan. We will continue to bill your insurance company for the delivery of your medical services.

I understand that your time is precious and going forward, I will be committed to seeing you at the time of your appointment, offering same day or next business day appointments, real-time communication via email and cell phone as warranted to intervene in a timely manner and ascertain best possible outcomes.

I believe in proactive care. We will become partners in an ongoing relationship dedicated to your health & overall wellness. My experience and diagnostic skills allow me to quickly get to the root of an issue or concern and address it in the most effective way.

I look forward to partnering with you on your quest for optimum well-being and happiness. I hope you will join me on this exciting journey.
