About this practice
Alere Family Health is a Direct Primary Care practice in Ronks, Pennsylvania that blends modern DPC principles with a deep respect for the traditional doctor‑patient relationship. Founded by Dr. Chris Lupold, who grew up in a family‑medicine environment, the practice emphasizes price transparency, extended visit times, and a personal connection that lets patients feel truly known and cared for. Their philosophy centers on providing affordable, high‑quality primary care without the barriers of insurance, allowing the team to focus on preventive health and long‑term wellness.
Members receive unlimited routine office visits, same‑day or next‑day appointments, and direct access to physicians via phone, text, email, and video chat. The practice also offers a wide range of services including yearly wellness exams, acute care, well‑child and well‑woman care, sports physicals, DOT exams, chronic disease management, immunizations, in‑office lab draws, discounted labs and medications, house calls, after‑hours urgent visits, and minor procedures such as skin lesion removal, joint injections, ear‑wax removal, wound repair, and more.
