About Us
As physicians, our mission is to care for you with the dedication you deserve.
Why Direct Primary Care?
In traditional insurance-based medicine, physicians are pressured to see 20 to 30 patients a day. That leaves very little time for the kind of thoughtful, personalized care that actually makes a difference in people's lives.
Direct Primary Care removes the insurance middleman from primary care. By operating on a simple membership model, we can keep our patient panel small, spend real time with each person, and focus entirely on what matters: your health. No billing codes. No prior authorizations. Just medicine.
Why Monterey?
Monterey County is home. For over a decade Dr. Cushing and Dr. Flores have watched this community grow and change. We also know this region faces a genuine shortage of primary care physicians — and we believe we can help fill that gap.
Casa De Salud Primary Care is our commitment to this community. It means House of Health in Spanish, and that is exactly what we want it to be — a place where every person who walks through the door feels seen, heard, and cared for.
Our Philosophy of Care
Prevention First
The best healthcare happens before you get sick. We are committed to helping you build healthy habits, catch issues early, and maintain your wellbeing for the long term.
Transparency in Everything
From our pricing to your treatment options, we believe you deserve clear, honest information so you can make the best decisions for your health.
You Are More Than a Diagnosis
At Casa De Salud Primary Care we take the time to understand the full picture of your health — physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors all play a role. Your care plan should reflect who you are, not just what condition you have.
Real Access to Your Doctor
When you are a member of Casa De Salud Primary Care, you have direct access to your doctor. That means real answers from your own physician — not a nurse line or a stranger at urgent care.
