Direct Primary Care in Magna, Utah
You should not have to wait three weeks to be seen, then get eleven rushed minutes with someone reading your chart for the first time. Summit Direct Health offers direct primary care in Magna, Utah, built on a simple trade. You pay one flat monthly fee. You get unlimited visits, 24/7 direct access to your provider by text, phone, or video, and wholesale pricing on labs, imaging, and medications. No copays. No claim forms. No insurance company sitting between you and your clinician.
Magna has grown fast. Between the new Cyprus High campus off 8400 West, the townhomes going up in Little Valley and Arbor Park along the Oquirrh bench, and the families who have held the same lots near Pleasant Green for three generations, this is a community that has outpaced the medical care available inside its own borders. Most people here end up driving to West Valley, Taylorsville, or downtown for a fifteen minute visit. That is a bad trade, and it is the exact problem the direct primary care model solves.
Why Magna Families Are Choosing a DPC Practice
Traditional healthcare practices carry 2,500 to 3,500 people per primary care provider. That math is why you wait, why your visit is short, and why nobody calls you back. Summit Direct Health caps membership at under 700 people total. Fewer people, more time, real continuity.
Here is what that changes day to day for our members in Magna:
This is what concierge medicine promised, minus the four-figure retainer. A DPC practice delivers concierge care at a price a Magna household can actually plan around.

Capping the practice is what makes every one of these promises possible for members in Magna.
Same-day and next-day availability.
Strep going around Brockbank STEM or Elk Run Elementary? You are not waiting until Thursday. Most members are seen the day they call.
Direct access to your actual provider.
Not a portal message that gets triaged in 48 hours. You text the person who knows your history. Nights and weekends included.
Personalized care and visits that last as long as they need to.
If you need forty minutes to sort out three years of symptoms nobody has connected, you get forty minutes.
Transparent, wholesale pricing.
Labs, X-rays, imaging, and prescriptions at negotiated cost with no markup. Many members save more on a single lab panel than they pay in a month of membership.
One predictable monthly fee.
No surprise bill six weeks later. No deductible to chase before your care counts.
Concierge care, without the retainer.
Membership stays open only while spots last, since capping the practice under 700 is what protects every promise on this page.
How Does Direct Primary Care Work
A DPC practice removes insurance billing from primary care entirely. Instead of the practice billing an insurance company for every service, you pay the clinic directly through a monthly membership. That single change frees a DPC physician from coding quotas, prior authorizations, and the seven minute visit that insurance reimbursement rates make necessary. Family physicians in insurance-based clinics rarely get to practice the way they were trained to. In a DPC practice, they do.
Summit Direct Health is a DPC direct primary care practice, not an insurance product. Your direct primary care membership covers your ongoing primary care. It is not health insurance, and we are direct with people about that. Most of our members pair membership with a high deductible health insurance plan or a health sharing plan to cover hospitalization, surgery, and specialist care. Ask your tax advisor how a health savings account fits your situation, since many high deductible plans qualify.
- You pay the clinic directly through a monthly membership
- No coding quotas and no prior authorizations
- Most of what sends you to a doctor is handled start to finish
- Membership pairs well with a high deductible plan
For the vast majority of what actually sends you to a doctor in a given year, the DPC clinic handles it start to finish, and your insurance never has to be involved. Direct primary care is not a stripped down version of seeing a doctor. It is the version without the paperwork.

Primary Care Services for Magna Residents
Membership covers a full range of primary care services for every stage of life.
Everyday and acute illness.
Sinus infections, strep, ear infections, flu, the cold that has hung on for two weeks, UTIs, rashes, minor injuries. The kind of thing that otherwise sends you to a walk-in clinic on 3500 South with a $200 bill attached.
Preventive care and wellness visits.
Annual physicals, sports physicals for Cyprus High athletes, well child checks, screenings, and lab work reviewed with you instead of mailed to you in a code you cannot read.
Chronic disease management.
Diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, thyroid disorders, and asthma. Chronic disease is where the DPC model earns its keep, because we can check on you monthly at no additional charge instead of once a quarter when a billing cycle allows it.
Pediatric and family medicine.
Children are $25 a month. Newborn through college, plus the parents, in one practice that knows the whole household.
Mental health support.
ADHD evaluation and treatment, depression, and anxiety, managed by someone who has time to actually follow up.
Weight loss programs.
Oral medications, injections, and GLP-1 therapy with real medical oversight and honest pricing, not a med spa upsell.
Hormone therapy.
Thyroid optimization, perimenopause and menopause support for women, and testosterone replacement therapy for men.
DOT physicals and medical cards.
A meaningful one in Magna. With the Kennecott operation, the freight running SR-201, and the rail and trucking work across the west side, plenty of our neighbors need a DOT card renewed without burning a vacation day. Comprehensive exam including blood pressure, vision, and hearing.
Diagnostics and care coordination.
In-house labs, blood work, and imaging at wholesale rates. When you need specialist visits or specialty care beyond primary care, we coordinate the referral, send your records ahead, and stay involved afterward instead of handing you off and disappearing.
Serving Magna and the West Side
Our clinic sits at 2321 North 400 East, Suite 200 in Tooele, a straight shot from Magna. If you take I-80 west past the Great Salt Lake marina and Saltair, you are at our door in roughly half an hour, and for a lot of Magna households that is already a familiar drive. Plenty of people on the Oquirrh bench work in Tooele Valley, and plenty more pass Lake Point every week without thinking twice about it.
More to the point, you will rarely need to make the drive. Because your membership includes 24/7 access by text, phone, and video, a large share of care happens without anyone getting in a car. A rash photo at 9pm, a medication question before a shift, a follow up on lab results, a sick kid on a Sunday morning. Those get handled from your kitchen table on Main Street, not from a waiting room.
Direct primary care is designed to work this way, close by when you need a room and reachable when you do not. We serve members throughout Magna and the surrounding west side, including the historic Townsite around Main Street and the Empress Theatre, the neighborhoods off 8400 West and 2700 South, Little Valley, Arbor Park, Pleasant Green, Lake Ridge, Copper Hills, and out toward Kearns and West Valley City.
What It Costs
That is the whole price. There is no enrollment fee, no per-visit charge, and no bill arriving later. Compare it to a couple of urgent care visits plus a specialist copay and the arithmetic tends to answer itself.

Your Provider
Chad Jarvis, PA-C brings more than twenty years across family medicine, internal medicine, urology, orthopedics, and clinical practice. That range matters in a small practice, because it means more of what walks through the door gets handled in the room rather than referred out. He is the person you text. Not a call center, not a rotating panel. That continuity is the whole argument for direct primary care.
Common Questions from Magna Patients
Yes, and we will tell you so plainly. A DPC membership is not health insurance and does not replace it. It covers your primary care. Keep an insurance plan for hospitalization, surgery, and specialty care. Many members find a high deductible plan paired with membership costs less overall than a low deductible plan, because the care they use most is already covered.
Yes. Medicare patients are welcome. Medicare cannot be billed for membership, so the monthly fee is paid directly, and it can still be billed for outside services such as imaging or specialist care.
Many DPC patients come to us after years with a traditional practice and keep specialists they trust. We handle your ongoing primary care and coordinate everything else. Switching is a conversation, not a legal process.
Same idea, different price point. Concierge practices typically charge a large annual retainer on top of billing your insurance. A direct primary care doctor skips insurance billing entirely, which is why our rates land where they do.
Same day or next day is the norm, which is what direct primary care is built to deliver. To make an appointment, call or message us and you will hear back from a real person.
Text your provider. That is the whole point of direct primary care. Plenty of situations that would otherwise mean a $300 urgent care bill get resolved in a five minute conversation.
Ready to Try Primary Care That Works
Healthcare in this country has trained all of us to expect very little. Long waits, short visits, unclear bills, and the sense that nobody is really tracking your health across the years. That is traditional healthcare, and it does not have to work that way.
If you live in Magna, Utah and you want unhurried patient care from a provider who knows your name and answers your texts, membership is open. Spots are limited by design, since capping the practice under 700 is what makes any of this possible.
