FAQs
How does retreat work?
Our philosophy is simple, and our recommended health plans are easy to follow. Visit our How it works page to learn more.
How is retreat different from a regular primary care doctor?
We took every aspect of a conventional medical visit and turned it on its head. Our booking process is straightforward and fast, as you can easily view upcoming appointments with your provider and schedule a virtual or in-office visit right on our website. If you do choose to visit one of our state-of-the-art offices, you’ll notice it looks nothing like a typical doctor’s waiting room. You can enjoy a healthy juice at our juice bar, Starbucks coffee, and lounge in a comfortable and inviting space. When it comes to a visit with a provider, you’ll notice our approach is to treat the whole YOU and not just the symptoms, which is commonly practiced in medicine today. You’ll build trust with your provider as he or she spends time learning about your health goals, habits, and finding long-term solutions to help you become the best version of yourself.
