The Practice

A clinic built around forty-five minutes, not fifteen.

Dr. Nieves Sanchez opened her West Palm Beach practice in 2019 after two decades inside hospital systems that treated time as the scarcest resource. Her clinic treats it differently — as the precondition for everything else.

Internal medicine, practiced the slow way.

Most new-patient visits in South Florida last twelve minutes. Ours run forty-five. That is not a luxury — it is the minimum time required to take a real history, review prior labs, and decide together what is worth treating and what is worth watching.

Dr. Sanchez is board-certified in internal medicine with subspecialty training in preventive cardiology and women's primary care. She sees patients aged sixteen and older, with a particular focus on hypertension, thyroid disease, perimenopause, and the long tail of post-COVID care.

The clinic runs on a direct-care model: a flat annual membership covers unlimited messaging, two comprehensive annual physicals, and same-day urgent slots. Insurance is accepted for visits and labs, but never required to be seen.

Five steps, one relationship.

The arc of care at Nieves Sanchez, MD — from first call to follow-up. Drag, swipe, or scroll sideways to move through each stage. Every step is staffed by the same small team so nothing gets lost in handoff.
01

First call & intake

A fifteen-minute call with our care coordinator to gather history, current medications, and what brought you in. We schedule the right length of visit — not the default one.

Comprehensive visit

Forty-five minutes face-to-face with Dr. Sanchez. Full history, physical exam, and a written care plan you take home — not a portal message buried three screens deep.

In-house labs & imaging

Bloodwork, EKG, and basic imaging drawn on-site the same day. Most results return within twenty-four hours and are reviewed by Dr. Sanchez personally — not routed to a queue.

A second, shorter visit to walk through results together. You leave with a written plan: what we are treating, what we are watching, what would change the approach, and when we meet next.
