With a focus on time, trust, and tailored care, the initiative brings a modern concierge experience to patients throughout the Chicagoland suburbs.

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS / ACCESS Newswire / February 23, 2026 / As concierge medicine gains traction across the country, Hermes Health is bringing this patient-centered model to Chicago communities for individuals seeking a more attentive, relationship-based approach to healthcare-one that blends modern medical innovation with the values of traditional, personalized care.

Led by Dr. Nesreen Hermes, Medical Director, and Rene Hermes, Chief Operating Officer, the practice is reshaping how patients experience medicine by bringing back house calls, prioritizing extended visits and direct access to care, allowing physicians to truly understand each patient's history, lifestyle, and goals. Hermes Health has served the Chicago residents for more than 12 years, building a reputation for relationship-driven, patient-first care.

"For over a decade, our practice has cared for patients through every stage of life, and we've seen how much better outcomes are when there is time to listen and build trust truly," said Dr. Hermes. "This boutique model allows us to deepen those relationships and deliver the kind of thoughtful, personalized care that some patients require."

"Healthcare should feel personal, not transactional," she added. "Our model allows us to spend meaningful time with patients, build lasting relationships, and focus not only on treating illness but on supporting long-term wellness."

The Hermes Health boutique medicine program is offered as a membership-based model priced at $500 per month With a 12-month commitment, providing patients with enhanced access to care, longer appointments, and a highly individualized healthcare experience. Uniquely, the program includes physician-led house calls, personalized nutrition planning, and global health support while traveling-services not typically available through traditional concierge models.

"We are excited to introduce this Boutique Medicine Program because, after more than a decade in practice, we recognized that certain patients needed a higher level of access, more frequent communication, and truly continuous care to support the complexity of their health," said Rene Hermes, COO. "By intentionally limiting membership to Just 200 patients, we can give those individuals something increasingly rare in healthcare today - their doctor on call, available when they need guidance, treatment, or reassurance, whether at home or while traveling."

As healthcare systems face increasing patient loads, administrative burden, and shorter appointment times, many individuals are seeking a model that restores accessibility and trust. Concierge medicine has emerged as a response to these pressures, emphasizing a proactive approach to health management rather than reactive care.

Hermes Health is limiting the boutique medicine physician panel to 200 patients compared to the typical 2,000 patient panel for most primary care providers. This smaller scale ensures patients receive timely attention-often the moment they call, because many medical conditions are most effectively treated when addressed immediately.

Members receive a private line of communication to their dedicated physician, with virtual consultations, prompt prescriptions and in-person visits-including house calls within a 20-mile radius when necessary. Importantly, the Boutique Medicine Program is an addition to, not a replacement for, the practice's existing insurance-based services, which remain fully available to the broader patient community.

"Our goal is to create a healthcare experience where patients feel supported, know they can reach us quickly, and have a true partner in navigating their health," Dr. Hermes said. "When physicians have the time to listen, care becomes more thoughtful, preventive, and effective."
