Medicine, measured in minutes — not seconds.
Dr. Eliud Sifonte’s internal medicine practice in West Palm Beach — where a sixty-minute visit is the standard, not the exception.
A clinic built around one question — what does this patient actually need?
For more than a decade, Dr. Eliud Sifonte has practiced internal medicine the slow way: long first visits, follow-ups that don’t feel rushed, and a chart that reads like a person, not a problem list. The clinic sits two blocks from the Intracoastal in West Palm Beach and sees a deliberate, limited number of patients each day.
That philosophy shapes everything from the way appointments are scheduled to the way lab results are delivered — in person, with context, never through an automated portal at 11 p.m. New patients are accepted by referral or direct request, and most are seen within ten business days of their first call.
What we treat, and what it costs.
Transparent pricing for patients paying out of pocket or with high-deductible plans. We accept most major PPO insurance and offer itemized estimates before any procedure. Prices below reflect standard self-pay rates.
Office hours
Walk-ins are not available — every visit is by appointment, so each patient gets the full time they’re owed.
Three principles, held closely.
Internal medicine is not a transaction. It’s a long conversation between a doctor, a patient, and time. These are the rules that govern every visit at the practice.
Unhurried time
Sixty minutes for a new patient. Thirty for a follow-up. No double-booking, no waiting room cascades. The clock works for the patient, not against them.
Whole-person context
Lab numbers are read alongside sleep, stress, family history, and the texture of a patient’s week. A pattern matters more than a single data point.
Clear, written plans
Every visit ends with a printed summary: what was found, what changed, what to watch for. No patient leaves wondering what happens next.
