Turntable Health was a primary care clinic based in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was founded with the aim of providing comprehensive and preventive healthcare services to its members. The clinic operated on a membership-based model, focusing on patient-centered care and wellness.

History[edit]

Turntable Health was co-founded by Zubin Damania, also known as ZDoggMD, a physician and healthcare advocate. The clinic opened its doors in 2013 as part of a collaboration with Iora Health, a company known for its innovative approach to primary care. The clinic was located in the Downtown Project, an initiative led by Tony Hsieh, the CEO of Zappos, to revitalize downtown Las Vegas.

Model of Care[edit]

Turntable Health adopted a unique model of care that emphasized preventive health and wellness. The clinic offered a range of services, including primary care, health coaching, and wellness programs. Members paid a monthly fee, which covered all services provided by the clinic. This model aimed to reduce the reliance on fee-for-service healthcare and to focus on long-term health outcomes.

Primary Care[edit]

The primary care services at Turntable Health included routine check-ups, chronic disease management, and acute care. The clinic employed a team-based approach, with physicians, nurse practitioners, and health coaches working together to provide comprehensive care.

Health Coaching[edit]

Health coaches at Turntable Health played a crucial role in helping members achieve their health goals. They provided personalized support and guidance on lifestyle changes, such as diet, exercise, and stress management.

Wellness Programs[edit]

Turntable Health offered various wellness programs, including group classes and workshops on topics like nutrition, fitness, and mental health. These programs were designed to promote overall well-being and prevent illness.

Closure[edit]

Despite its innovative approach, Turntable Health faced financial challenges and closed its doors in January 2017. The closure was attributed to difficulties in scaling the membership model and sustaining the business financially.

Legacy[edit]

Turntable Health left a lasting impact on the healthcare community by demonstrating the potential of a patient-centered, preventive approach to primary care. The clinic's model has influenced other healthcare providers and continues to be a topic of discussion in the field of healthcare innovation.
