About
Dr. James Pinckney II, M.D., is the founder and CEO of Diamond Physicians, a Direct Primary Care practice based in Dallas, Texas. In 2012 he created the practice to restore the traditional, personal patient‑physician relationship by eliminating insurance middlemen and offering an affordable, membership‑based model. Diamond Physicians focuses on delivering high‑quality, personalized health care directly to members, emphasizing preventive medicine and continuity of care.
The practice limits each physician’s panel to roughly 600 patients, allowing for longer, unhurried appointments, 24‑hour telemedicine access, and at‑home visits. Dr. Pinckney’s DPC philosophy centers on patient empowerment, transparent pricing, and a commitment to providing comprehensive primary care without the constraints of traditional insurance systems.
