Meet Dr. Jonathan Maxham<br />
By: Kyli Thomassen / Guest Column<br />
Finally a doctor who is addressing the broken<br />
healthcare system!<br />
Doctor Jonathan<br />
Maxham, a South Carolina native, graduated from<br />
Kansas City University of Medicine and is an internal<br />
medicine physician who has been practicing since<br />
2009.<br />
He joined the United States Air Force in 2005.<br />
During his military career he was deployed to<br />
Afghanistan and received the Army commendation<br />
medal.<br />
At Nellis AFB, he treated thousands of geriatric<br />
patients and became proficient with management of<br />
weight loss, diagnosing sleep apnea, diabetes, high<br />
blood pressure and overall prevention.<br />
After leaving military service as a Major in 2016,<br />
he continued progression into hospital medicine<br />
and eventually became an extensivist or put simply,<br />
a doctor like it used to be. He follows his patients<br />
through all their walks of wellness; whether it be in a clinic or hospital/<br />
post-acute rehabilitation facilities.<br />
Dr. Maxham is mending Nevada’s broken healthcare system one<br />
patient at a time through his Direct Primary Care (DPC) membership<br />
model. Insurance models presume that each diagnosis can be broken<br />
down to a billable code.<br />
With a DPC model, he is able to offer you excellent care at an<br />
affordable price without the constraints of billing and coding which<br />
takes away from the focus of care: YOU!<br />
Included in his membership are home visits, no wait time, and longer<br />
appointment times. You can also call/ text his cell and receive same day<br />

or next day appointments as well as remote care while traveling.<br />
Say goodbye to crowded waiting rooms, rushed visits with your<br />
doctor, insurance hassles and surprise fees and list of questions you<br />
never had time to ask.<br />
How does DPC differ from Concierge Medicine?<br />
Where concierge medicine emphasizes exclusivity<br />
with higher annual fees, Dr. Maxham focuses on<br />
affordability, accessibility and a direct patientdoctor<br />
relationship with a lower monthly fee to serve<br />
everyone.<br />
Dr. Maxham’s mission is to bring back the essence<br />
of genuine care and compassion, where patients<br />
feel heard, understood and nurtured through their<br />
healthcare journey. His vision is to revolutionize<br />
healthcare by embracing traditional medical<br />
wisdom while incorporating modern advancements,<br />
ensuring that every patient receives the highest<br />
quality of care with a personal touch.<br />
He believes not to let insurance define your care for<br />
it will define your grave and likes to think of himself<br />
as “old school” with new tricks<br />
