In an attempt to curb prescription pill-focused medical care, Parsley Health is offering holistic primary care which claims to bring "functional medicine" to the masses. Available as a $150 service, Parsley Health aims to foster a close, long-term doctor-patient relationship, where both parties are committed to addressing health problems with holistic care. Each visit and consultation helps build a relationship between doctor and patient and ensures health is the primary focus.
The service also provides an intuitive dashboard that helps manage healthcare from anywhere. The Parsley Health dashboard allows for fast responses and easy booking, or even video chatting with doctors. Parsley Health also comes at an incredibly affordable rate and does not require health insurance. Instead, the $150 grants patients five annual hour-long visits with a doctor, five sessions with a health coach, multiple lab tests, and referrals to specialists.
