About
Dr. Elsie Osei-Nkansah is the owner and physician at One Health Direct Primary Care. She is a Board Certified Family Practice Physician with over a decade of experience practicing in the Asheville‑Arden area. Dr. Osei recognized the frustrations patients face in the traditional medical system—long wait times, surprise bills, and limited access to doctors—and founded One Health DPC to create a more patient‑centered model.
At One Health DPC, she spends ample time with each patient during appointments and maintains direct communication between visits. Her mission is to build strong doctor‑patient relationships, treat the whole person, and provide affordable, high‑quality primary care without the barriers of insurance bureaucracy.
