Welcome!

Welcome to the virtual home of Dr. Frank Anthony Aliganga, your future go-to family medicine physician in South Jersey! While the exact location of my new direct primary care practice is still a mystery (stay tuned for clues!), I’m thrilled to announce that we’ll be opening our doors in Summer 2025.

Think of this site as your gateway to staying connected with me—you can get a glimpse of my journey, my passion for family medicine, and my commitment to providing personalized, accessible healthcare.

I believe that great healthcare is about more than just medicine; it’s about building relationships, one family at a time. So let's embark on this journey together!

Now, you might be wondering, what exactly is direct primary care (DPC)? Direct primary care is a model of healthcare that emphasizes a direct relationship between you and your physician, bypassing traditional insurance. This approach allows for more personalized care, with benefits like extended appointments, greater access to your doctor, and transparent pricing without the hassle of insurance paperwork. Primary care can address around 80-90% of your healthcare needs, providing comprehensive care for you and your family. Do you really need to be seeing 5 doctors when a family doctor can manage most chronic conditions effectively?

One of the unique aspects of DPC is the flexibility in how and where care can be delivered. Whether in a typical brick-and-mortar clinic, through telemedicine, at your home, or even at the gym or the park, there are no insurance rules dictating how or where we provide your care. This freedom ensures that we can focus on what truly matters—your health and well-being.

For my current patients who may be reading and are interested, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your trust and support. I am committed to continuing to provide comprehensive, patient-centered care while also ensuring my own well-being, so I can be there for you when you need me.

If you're considering how to manage costs, one option is to pair direct primary care with a high-deductible insurance plan. This setup can cover major medical expenses while your DPC membership takes care of routine and preventive care. You can choose this option when enrolling for benefits with your employer. Stay tuned as I'll also prepare guides to make the setup process easier.

Curious to learn more about how direct primary care differs from traditional insurance-based models? Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’m here to guide you through this innovative approach to healthcare and ensure it meets your needs.
