Five Years of Transforming Primary Care
in Columbia, SC

July 2025 marks Noreta Family Medicine’s 5th anniversary! On some days, it feels like it has been 10 years since Noreta opened😊 while on other days it feels like just yesterday. I am so grateful to the Columbia, South Carolina community for supporting my little Direct Primary Care (DPC) office that could!

Five years ago, I (finally) realized I couldn’t rely on other people to change the healthcare system. I had to do it myself. I took the leap of becoming an entrepreneur and opened my first small business. There have been up and downs over the years, but I think Noreta’s patients would agree that it has been worth it. And….we are still accepting new patients in our family medicine office!

If you are looking for an unrushed and thorough primary care experience with transparent and affordable pricing, then give us a call! We will happily talk to you about how direct primary care works (regardless of whether you are uninsured or have health insurance) and would be happy to schedule a “meet and greet” visit.

Thank you again for supporting Noreta Family Medicine!
I can’t wait to do this in another 5 years! 😊

Have a good week! Feel free to contact me with any questions.
