Services
Direct Primary Care is a growing type of medical practice that eliminates third parties like insurance companies, in order to provide affordable, convenient, high quality medical care directly to the patients. By contracting directly with patients, DPC doctors can focus completely on your health. No gimmicks.
If your menstrual cycle has stopped before menopause, or if you are experiencing the above or any other symptom of menopause, you may have low estradiol. These are very serious symptoms that may stem from a variety of serious conditions in addition to hormonal imbalance. Talk with your doctor to confirm that the source of these problems is not from another condition.
Please go through the FAQs to understand our model of care. If you still have unanswered question, contact us here with your specific questions or concerns. Meridian Springs Primary Care uses a different model of care than other third party insurance based medical practices. Why do we do that? We asked ourselves a simple question - What do patients really want?
Dr. Bhavana Rao, family physician and a long time resident of The Woodlands, is among the growing number of physicians who have opened practices that offer a membership based Direct Primary Care. In other words we are like Netflix but for healthcare. Patients pay one low monthly fee and get access to the physician 24/7, which includes telemedicine after hours.

Meridian is ahead of the curve on medical services. Their plan of taking care of the primary care with a low monthly fee where most of the care is needed is visionary. On top of that Dr Bao is the most knowledgeable and friendly Dr anyone could ask for to assist them. I highly recommend Meridian Springs.

Dr. Rao went out of her way to help me get a Covid test and results in a timely manor. I was out if options and I HAD to get tested THAT day. My neighbor referred her to me. I called Dr. Rao to see if she could do my test that same day and she waited for me (after closing hours) to arrive at her office. THAT is excellent customer service.

I’m so happy to have a doctor I get to see the same day! When I make an appointment I see a doctor at that time! My time is valuable I will happily pay to have it treated as so, plus Dr Rao and her staff are amazing.

STAY AWAY. Terrible customer service. They take ZERO responsibility for the mistakes that they make, and don't abide by the service level they advertise and CHARGE for. I would advise you to stay away from this place.

I visited the clinic for a PCR COVID test for my elderly mother which was needed for her travel. I paid $155 for an expedited test, for which results were GUARANTEED in a twelve hour period. This was very important, because the Airline required that the test results be sent out 36 hours before the flight.

The next day, when I didn't get the results in time, I contacted

Dr Rao at Meridian Springs Clinic is truly a one of kind Doctor. Over the last several years, I’ve gotten to know the clinic and enjoy knowing Sunil and Dr. Rao. If you are searching for a doctor, search no more. You aren’t just a number at Meridian Springs. Thank you Dr. Rao for all that you do. Scott

I recently booked an expedited 4-hour COVID RTPCR test (USD195) as recommended by the clinic. My experience was pretty disappointing.
I was informed that if I went in early in the morning for the test, I should be able to receive my results the same day at 5pm. I went in to the clinic at 9.30am for the test and only received the results almost 12 hours later at 10.14pm the same day. I was told that the delayed was due to the lab wasn’t able to manage with the heavy PCR testing workload. I understand that the stressful situation was no fault of the clinic but I think the clinic is responsible

Where do I start! I was referred to Dr. Rao because I was literally falling apart. The office experience is so out of the box. I never got to experience her lobby chairs because I was always attended to right away. She is pleasant, a good listener, sharp, organized and on point. You can't get me to say anything but glowing things because what she did for my health I can never repay. This model of care I pray will be a trend in healthcare because it puts the focus back on the patient. Way to go Dr. Rao.

Dr. Rao is great! She doesn’t just treat you like “just some patient” she actually takes the time to understand you as a person and make sure she is guiding your medical care the right direction. She is way ahead of the game with her business model also. The office is so comfortable and doesn’t make you dread having to go to the doctor. I highly recommend Dr. Rao for a primary care physician!

I have been using this Practice for over a year now. I feel like I have developed a good relationship with Dr Rao. She takes her time with me and is very supportive in my health endeavors. I have done different appointments with her via phone, video call and in person. They have all gone well. She is very knowledgeable and thorough. I’m glad I found this option.

My visits to Meridian Springs have always been perfect! No wait time and very friendly and accommodating staff. Dr Bhavana is awesome, with her care both in the clinic and, when necessary, over the phone. She’s very accessible, and that makes a huge difference!

The new kind of healthcare that will save your family money!!!

More and more doctors will be going this route. Pay monthly membership and get all your primary care services under one doctor, one price - or the lowest cost for labs /specialty visits!

It's totally worth coming for consult.
