TEASER: Dr. Jeff Puglisi of Glenville Medical Concierge Care stresses the importance of taking the plunge into concierge medicine as soon as possible after you’ve made the decision. Specialdocs was a “no-brainer” for him after the relationships he had built with the office team throughout his search.

A veteran of Stamford Medical Facility, Dr. Jeff Puglisi and his partners had had enough of the crazy hours and extreme stress-level that carried into all aspects of their daily lives. Never one to hesitate when a major opportunity presents itself, Dr. Puglisi made the move to concierge medicine.

“You really need to find that work life balance. To me, if you’ve made that decision to switch over then you have to do it now. There’s no time to wait.”

With so many big-name concierge brands on the market, Dr. Puglisi quickly grew dissatisfied with the promise of a built-in model that allowed for no autonomy and little relationship. During the search, Puglisi connected with Specialdocs and was attracted to the way the organization placed importance on the relationship.

“We chose Specialdocs after months and months of talking about [transitioning] because of the interactions we had with them one-on-one, in the office, over the phone.”

Now, within his practice, Glenville Medical Concierge Care, Dr. Puglisi has the opportunity to work with new medical technologies like pharmacogenomics to improve his patient care and job satisfaction.

“I wake up every day, can’t wait to get to the practice, can’t wait to see my patients, can’t wait to strategize about what’s next.”
