Physician Advisory Services
Sometimes what a patient and their family needs is guidance, coordination, and a clear and comfortable path forward. This is especially true when there have been a number of 911 calls, ED visits, hospitalizations, rehab stays, or when there are numerous specialists and nursing supports involved, or when family is far away.
Amy Boutwell MD is expert in simplifying the complicated - by clarifying, coordinating, and communicating with all those involved in care.
For families with this need, you may not want to change your primary care physician. That’s fine! I am happy to serve as your physician advisor to stabilize needs and clarify a plan moving forward if you find yourself in a confusing, overwhelming or otherwise frustrating phase of your healthcare.
I will work with you and those who are involved in your care and support to identify your goals and preferences, and re-orient your plan of care and supports around what makes sense for you at this time in your life.
This service is offered on the same terms as joining the practice. The only difference is you don’t change your primary care doctor. You are getting the time, attention, home visits, team meetings that your PCP would probably love to offer, but just doesn’t have time to offer you in the standard medical practice model.
