Welcome to Venture Wellness

We got your Enrollment. Welcome to the practice.

Thank you for trusting us with your care and your family’s. Your agreement is on file, and your membership is being set up. Here is everything you need for the first few weeks, in the order you’ll need it.

Start here

Your next three steps

Your new patient visit. If you need help with scheduling, our team will reach out after your enrollment to get your visits on the calendar.

  1. Book a first visit for each person

    Everyone in your household who enrolled gets their own first visit. Book them back to back if that’s easier for your family.

    Open the scheduling page

  2. Complete your intake forms

    Once your New Patient visit is booked, we email your intake forms and information to set up your portal. Finishing them before the visit leaves more of your time for you.

Your first visit

What to expect, and what to bring

Your first visit is a real conversation. Your provider goes through your health history, your current medications, what’s working, and what isn’t, and you leave with a plan and a clear idea of what comes next.

This is also where we order your bloodwork. Your provider will tell you at the visit whether any of it needs fasting. Common fasting labs include a lipid (cholesterol) panel, fasting glucose, and insulin. Not sure if you need to fast ahead of your lab visit? Text us before your draw and we’ll confirm.

Bring with you

  • A photo ID
  • Your medications and supplements, or photos of the labels
  • Recent lab results or records from a previous provider, if you have them
  • Your health insurance card, for any outside labs, imaging, or specialist referrals
  • For children: school, sports, or camp forms that need completing
  • A short list of your questions
Staying in touch

How to reach your provider

Direct access is one of the best parts of membership. Here’s which way to reach us for what.

Text your provider

(804) 531-6731

For non-urgent questions, refills, a quick check on a symptom, or deciding whether you need a visit. During business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Monday–Friday) we reply the same day, usually within a couple of hours. Messages sent after hours are answered the next business morning.

Patient portal

Forms, results, and records

Your intake forms, visit notes, and lab results live in the portal, along with secure messaging.

Call the office

(804) 601-8625

For scheduling, billing, and membership questions, such as updating your card or adding a family member.

Texts and messages are never for emergencies. For chest pain, trouble breathing, signs of a stroke, a serious injury, or anything that feels like an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For a mental-health crisis, call or text 988. Urgent problems that can’t wait for a reply belong at urgent care, and we’ll follow up with you afterward.

For your family

Kids, teens, and physicals

Physicals are included

Sports, camp, and school physicals are part of the membership. Bring the form to the visit and we’ll complete it there.

Vaccines

We don’t give vaccines in the office, but we keep track of what’s due, advise on the timing of each series, and can send a prescription to your pharmacy when one is needed. See where to get vaccines below.

Teens, 13 and older

As teens grow up, we help them take ownership of their own health. Part of each teen visit may be one-on-one time with the provider.

Parents stay involved in scheduling, billing, and everyday care. Virginia law lets teens receive some care confidentially, such as care for sexual health, birth control and pregnancy, mental health, and substance use, and we keep those conversations private. We always encourage teens to bring their parents in, and we help them do it.

Your membership

What’s included, and what costs extra

Visits, sick care, physicals, chronic-condition management, most in-office procedures, and doses of common oral medications given in the office are all part of your membership. A few extras, such as certain injections and rapid tests, carry a low member price. We always tell you the cost before anything is done.

Your membership is billed to the card you gave us at enrollment. For billing questions, call (804) 601-8625.

Please keep your health insurance. Membership covers your primary care, while insurance is there for emergencies, hospital stays, specialists, and imaging.
