Dr. Cunningham has 36 years of medical experience, most of it in the setting of Big Box medicine. He has practiced in both suburban and ruralsettings, noting that the corporate mantra of 20-25 patients a day was the same in both settings. Combining the desire to reduce the cost of healthcare for his patients while being able to spend an appropriate amount of time with each visit or phone call, Dr. Cunningham settled on the practice model known as Direct Primary Care (DPC). lnsurance is pushed out of the way. No CEO to tell the physician how to practice. Adopting the practice philosophy of, "Treating your Family Like My own," he opened a DPC practice in rural Minnesota.
