Finding a healthcare provider that you like and trust is one of the things that can impact your healthcare journey the most. We got to tour the new Hoag On-Demand Care and Innovation Center recently. We chatted with some of the healthcare providers and we are seriously impressed with how Hoag is intentionally empowering moms in their healthcare.

 

First, let’s chat about the awesome service that their new Hoag Compass Plus app offers. Hoag Compass Plus is a subscription based service that includes in person visits at the Hoag On-Demand Care and Innovation Center in Newport Beach, virtual visits, and on demand access through the app.  You get your own dedicated care coordinator that helps with appointments and prescriptions. You also have access to unlimited live health coaching from your Registered Dietitian, Exercise Physiologist, and Mindfulness Coach. Even better? You can get fast access to urgent care support when you need it. Hoag Compass is $50 a month and they accept most insurance!

 

The leadership at Hoag recognizes the central and pivotal role that women play in our society – both on a family-unit scale, and more broadly in society – and have devoted significant resources to developing programs that better support and serve them,” -Dr. Anne Ray.

Now, let’s chat about how Hoag aims to empower moms in their healthcare. “The leadership at Hoag recognizes the central and pivotal role that women play in our society – both on a family-unit scale, and more broadly in society – and have devoted significant resources to developing programs that better support and serve them,” -Dr. Anne Ray. Hoag Compass puts the focus on overall wellness with physical, mental, and nutritional goals vs just one area. We asked Dr. Ray if she had seen, first hand, how that benefitted patients and this was her response: “100% yes! Humans are a complex organism that we still don’t fully understand in medicine, despite thousands of years of study. There is no doubt that how we nourish, move, and talk to ourselves can have a profound, measurable impact on health outcomes. On top of that, improving these aspects of health comes with far fewer negative side effects to health than many more ‘modern’ pharmaceutical and interventional treatments.” 

 

As moms, we know our kids best and that is one of the main reasons why it is so impactful to find a healthcare provider that listens to us and works with us. We want to trust that they truly see us and our loved ones as people, not just numbers, and that feeling was abundantly clear while spending time with their team. With Hoag Compass you will feel seen, heard, and well taken care of. I can’t encourage you enough to check them out to see if they are a good fit for your family!

 

Finally, I wanted to share this quote from Dr. Ray because it stuck with me ever since she shared. We asked her if there was anything else she wanted us moms to know and this was her response: “As a primary care provider, I wish more moms knew it’s always ok to ask us anything. So often, my patients start by apologizing to me for having a list of needs or concerns and I tell them, “that is literally why we are here, you don’t have to apologize!” I may not be able to fix everything in one visit, but I want to know so we can plan together. It is why I do what I do.” That is such a clear example of how Hoag Compass is empowering moms in healthcare.
