About

Dr. Lorimar Ortiz Ortiz is a family medicine physician based in Ponce, Puerto Rico. She founded The Way Family Clinic, the first Direct Primary Care (DPC) clinic on the island, with a mission to provide personalized, accessible primary care for families. Dr. Ortiz emphasizes a patient‑centered approach, offering same‑day or next‑day appointments, extended visits, and multiple communication channels—including phone, text, email, and video chat—to ensure patients receive timely and comprehensive care.

At The Way Family Clinic, Dr. Ortiz focuses on the unique needs of new mothers and infants, providing 4th‑trimester and lactation services alongside routine family medicine. Her DPC model eliminates copays and insurance barriers, offering a simple monthly membership that covers a wide range of preventive and acute services, allowing her to build lasting relationships with her patients and promote overall family well‑being.
