More About Dr. Wendy Regan
After 20 years of working in the fee-for-service model of primary care, she increasingly experienced less and less quality time with her patients. She believes that thorough and proper diagnosis requires time, trust, and active listening, all of which were being eroded by shorter visits, longer wait times, surprise bills, and less access to her when her patients needed her most.
The DPC model will now allow her and her patients to spend more quality time together at each visit, to provide transparent billing with no surprises, to respect patients’ time with on-time visits, as well as to provide care to her patients when they need her. The DPC model will also allow Dr. Regan to personally coordinate care with specialists and allied health professionals, which will be a true team approach to foster better health.
Publications & Recognitions
Her schedule will be flexible and accommodating for her patients, which will reduce or eliminate the need for urgent or emergency room care. She believes access to your own physician when a health issue arises is not only good medicine but optimal medicine. She knows relationships and connections matter when making an accurate diagnosis and creating an individualized treatment plan.
Dr. Regan has been a resident of Jamestown for 25 years and enjoys paddle boarding, yoga, cooking, reading, boating, and paddle tennis as well as spending time skiing and snowshoeing with her husband, Dan, and their 3 sons, Aidan, Ben, and Christian.
Dr. Regan believes that relationships are the cornerstone of exceptional primary care. She fosters those relationships through time, mutual respect, and listening. She is excited to practice the art and science of medicine the way it used to be—with her patient’s needs at the center of care.
