Hi, I'm Dr. Sandra Koehn! 👋

I'm a board certified internal medicine physician and founder of Planted Direct Primary Care, a small practice in Rochester built around one simple idea: you deserve a doctor who actually knows you.

After years in a system that rewards speed and volume, I saw patients wait weeks for sick visits, get just minutes in the exam room, see a different face each time, and leave with unanswered questions. I knew there had to be a better way to practice medicine. So I built one.

Planted DPC is intentionally small, capped at 200 patients. You'll have unrushed visits, direct access to me by phone or text, and continuity with the same doctor. No insurance middleman for routine care, no per-visit fees, just one transparent monthly membership.

I provide whole-person care, including prevention and cancer screening, lifestyle and nutrition support, weight loss, and care for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and prediabetes. As a DO, I also offer osteopathic manipulative treatment for pain and tension.

Most of all, I want to listen, connect the dots, and never make you feel rushed or like a number. You take care of everyone else. I'd be honored to take care of you.

Welcome. I'm glad you're here. 💚

Your purse is carrying a lot. So are you. 👜

Work. Kids. Snacks. Appointments. Family needs. Your own health somewhere in the middle.

Healthcare shouldn’t add another layer of complexity.

At Planted Direct Primary Care, you can reach Dr. Koehn directly by phone or text, schedule longer unrushed visits, and build a relationship with a doctor who knows you: not just your chart. 🌿

Primary care should fit into your life, not make your life harder.

Have you ever wondered what an OMT visit is actually like? 🌿

OMT, or osteopathic manipulative treatment, is hands-on care. I use my hands to assess and treat muscles, joints, and connective tissue, with the visit centered around you.

Here’s what you can expect

1️⃣ We talk first about what’s bothering you and what your body has been through.

2️⃣ You stay fully clothed and comfortable.

3️⃣ I use gentle pressure and positioning techniques that release tension from connective tissue (fascia) and rebalance muscle tension, restoring motion, symmetry and function. Nothing is forced or cracked without warning.

4️⃣ We talk about movement, posture, and daily habits that may support you at home.

Many people feel lighter or looser afterward. Others notice a change over the next day or two. OMT may be helpful for back or neck pain, tension headaches, jaw or sinus pressure, and that tight, heavy feeling from carrying kids, bags, and stress all day.

It does not work the same way for everyone, and it does not replace other care you may need.

Anyone can schedule a visit - you don't have to be a patient! Non-members can book an OMT appointment too. If you’ve been carrying everything, you deserve care that makes room to listen. 🌱

Planted DPC has been open for six months!! 🌱🎉 Time sure flies when you LOVE what you do and are building something great!

Taking the leap of faith to open my own practice was one of the biggest decisions I have ever made. Never in a million years did I ever think I would open my own practice but here I am, 6 months later, thriving and so are my patients!

To everyone as trusted me, and every person who encouraged and supported me along the way, thank you! To my husband who is my biggest fan and support, could NOT have done this without you! To my family, who have contributed time, ideas, and all their many skills, thank you!

To my patients: thank you for allowing me the privilege of caring for you and for building this special place with me, where care is about knowing you and your whole story.

I truly couldn’t be happier that I took this leap. I’m grateful beyond words, and I give all praise to the Lord. 💚

🥂 Here's to many more milestones to come!

Open enrollment is coming. 🌿

Maybe you’re paying more for less coverage, or facing a higher deductible this year.

And when every visit to your primary care doctor comes with a copay or another bill, it can make you think twice before calling. That’s often when you should be calling.

Direct Primary Care offers another way to handle everyday healthcare.

With a Planted DPC membership, you get continuity with the same doctor, direct access by phone or text, longer unrushed visits, and no per-visit fees.

Sick visit? Included.
Medication management? Included.
Preventive care? Included.
Questions by text? Included.

A DPC membership can pair well with a high-deductible health plan or a health share.

HDHP for the big stuff. DPC for everyday care. 💚

As you compare plans, look beyond the monthly premium. Consider how you’ll access and pay for routine care throughout the year.

You take care of everyone else. Who is taking care of you? 🌿

Your business needs you. Your family needs you. Your aging parents may need you. And somehow, you’re also expected to manage your own healthcare between meetings, school pickups, practices, deadlines, and everything else on your plate.

You shouldn’t have to spend hours on hold, wait weeks for an appointment, or repeat your story to a new doctor every time.

At Planted Direct Primary Care, you have direct access to me by phone or text, longer unrushed visits, and a doctor who gets to know you: not just your medical record. Together, we can make your healthcare simpler, more personal, and easier to fit into your life. 💚

You care for everyone else every day. Let someone take care of you, too.

Ever spent 38 minutes on hold just to ask if a fever is "high enough" to worry about? 📱

The old way: Navigate a maze of phone trees, sit through repetitive elevator music, and hope for a call back by Tuesday.

The Planted DPC way: Just text me.

Direct access to your doctor changes everything for busy families. Whether it’s a weird rash during dinner or a quick question about a prescription, you have a direct line to your physician. No middleman, no hold times, just real answers when you need them.

Studies show that this level of access leads to 66% fewer ER visits. Why? Because when you can reach your doctor instantly, small concerns don't turn into big emergencies. 🩺✨

It’s healthcare that actually respects your time.

If your family’s healthcare costs are already stretching the budget, 2027 may bring more pressure. Health insurance premiums are expected to rise about 12% on average.

There may be another way to think about your care.

A Planted DPC membership gives you unlimited routine primary care for one flat monthly fee, with no per-visit charges. You can text or call your doctor, schedule unrushed visits, and receive comprehensive, personalized care built around you, not a volume-based system.

Some people pair DPC with a health sharing plan. Depending on your needs and the plan you choose, this combination may cost less than traditional insurance while helping address eligible major medical expenses and giving you more convenient access to primary care.

Important note: Health sharing plans are not traditional insurance and are not a guarantee of coverage or savings. Guidelines, exclusions, and member responsibilities vary. Carefully review what a plan does and does not cover before enrolling.

For the woman carrying work, kids, appointments, and family finances, owning your healthcare can mean fewer barriers, more personal attention, and a doctor who knows you.

I actually entered residency planning to be a hospitalist: or maybe even dive into critical care. I loved the medicine and the high stakes. 🏥

But over those three years, something shifted. I found myself falling in love with the long-term relationships. I realized I wanted to be a trusted companion in my patients' health journeys, managing their care and getting to know them over time.

Halfway through, I made the call: Primary Care was the path for me.

Like so many others in this field, I value relationship above all else. 🤝

Then, I saw the reality of the system. I saw the time needed to build those connections being chipped away. In a world that compensates volume over relationship and checkboxes over human connection, the "heart" of medicine was getting lost.

That’s why I chose Direct Primary Care (DPC). 🌿

At Planted DPC, we’ve reclaimed that time. No more rushed 10-minute slots. No more insurance barriers. Just me, you, and the time we need to actually focus on your health.

You are more than a few checkboxes.

You’re the one everyone calls.

The business. The kids. The appointments. The aging parents. The endless decisions.

But when it comes to your own health, you may be waiting weeks for an appointment, trying to explain everything in 10 rushed minutes, and managing the follow-up yourself.

You deserve healthcare that works around your life: not another project to manage.

At Planted Direct Primary Care, I take the time to listen, ask thoughtful questions, review the bigger picture, and create a plan with you. You can reach me directly by phone or text, schedule longer unrushed visits, and build an ongoing relationship with your doctor.

Taking care of yourself is not selfish. It’s how you keep showing up for everyone who depends on you. 💚
