About Eric Tepper
Personalized Family Medicine with Eric Tepper, MD
In recent years the healthcare environment has undergone significant change and physicians have been increasingly rewarded for speed and technology. We believe taking the time to listen to the patient is key to determining the root cause of illness and ensuring the best possible treatment.
I once considered becoming a teacher, and in many ways, the role of a physician is similar. Having the time to educate patients on how to optimize their health and quality of life is integral to the way I practice medicine.

The Value of Concierge Care
What Families Love About Concierge Medicine
Timely office visits
Friendly technology
A focus on wellness
Direct communications
Personal care & commitment
Concierge medicine, or membership medicine, is a relationship between a patient and a primary care physician in which the patient pays an annual fee. In return, doctors provide enhanced care and intentionally limit the number of patients they see to ensure adequate time and availability for each patient.
Patient Benefits
With an intentionally smaller practice, we are able to offer patients enhanced benefits.
Direct communication during business hours.
When you call our office there will be no recordings to navigate only real people with a real concern for your health and well-being.
Your physician’s personal cell phone number will be provided.
This will allow easy and direct communications for urgent medical problems that occur outside of our regular office hours.
Same-day or next business day appointments.
Due to our smaller patient panel, most office visits will be available on short notice.
Little or no office waiting room time, and longer appointments.
Office visits will start promptly, and we will have more time to thoroughly address all your questions and concerns at each visit.
Strong focus on preventive medicine and long-term health and wellness.
We will work with you to assess your level of fitness, provide weight management guidance and advice on leading a healthy lifestyle. In addition, we will work with you to support your emotional well-being and determine an appropriate personal wellness plan.
Personalized hospital care.
Should you need to be hospitalized, we will make courtesy visits to you while you are at Mercy General Hospital and Sutter General Hospital in Sacramento and communicate regularly with the hospitalist.

“Best PCP I have ever had in my life. I trust Dr. Tepper with my health, and that does not come lightly. I cannot say enough great things about his care, attention to detail, he explains all options available to me… Dr. Tepper "gets it". It has been 100% worth changing to a PPO plan to see him… In my opinion his care reduces ER backups and admissions. You will not regret switching over to Dr. Tepper if you want to become more health literate, take some control of your health (mind - body connection), prevent health issues and be the best version of yourself!”

Telemedicine Available
We are pleased to offer our patients the easy to use telemedicine option called Doxy.me as a convenient alternative to in-office appointments for check-ins, prescription refills and other routine matters. Doxy.me is accessed through a simple link that we’ll send by text or email before our virtual visit. All you need is a smart phone or computer with a webcam. While we can handle many issues via telemedicine, please note that symptoms such as chest or abdominal pain may require a physical exam. Please call our office first so that we may determine if a virtual visit is the best option for you.
