Dr Brown is down to earth, a great listener and up on the latest and best practices. I appreciate her insight and care.

I recently switched my care with Dr.Brown and could not be happier. She listens and I believe she empowers her patients in taking control of their health and wellbeing.

Our whole family have been patients here since they opened. We have consistently received thoughtful, caring and prompt care. All the doctors and staff are exceptional and I could not recommend more highly. We have even delayed moving out of the area due to the unbelievably great care we all receive. Thank you P3 for always coming through for our family. We adore all of you!

I have been a member of Placer Private Physicians since it opened. My parents enrolled me when I was a teen and I chose to continue as an adult, eventually adding my husband and now son. The care my family and I receive from the entire practice is extraordinary.

As a new mom, I fully appreciate being able to contact a doctor whenever I need or have a question. The fact they always have a doctor on call really puts my mind at ease. Each doctor has been excellent with my son since he was born. The nursing and office staff spoil him beyond measure.

I am forever grateful to Dr. Brown for helping me to diagnose some chronic issues that other doctors/specialists have brushed off. I truly feel heard and understood, vs. the common medical gaslighting I have received elsewhere. I appreciate her willingness to listen, research, and advocate for me as needed and that she educated me on my body and conditions. If you are a woman with endocrine or hormone issues, she is amazing.

The nursing staff is friendly, professional, and overall comforting. I have never had a negative experience with them (and I’m there frequently!) I appreciate being able to reach out to a nurse to help facilitate when I need questions answered quickly, quick referral, urgent med refills etc. And as someone that needs frequent injections, Lisa makes shots quick and relatively painless. Kimberly was so helpful as I learned breastfeeding and such a support to me as a new mom. While I don’t see him as much, Harry is a delight and may be my son’s favorite.

The office staff is equally as professional and friendly and overall great to work with. I appreciate their follow through on sending communication to the nurses and doctors. Their on site nutritionist Prabha is incredibly helpful and thorough. She has even helped me plan meals and grocery lists to best support my family’s health.

I realize I have said all positive things, but I think very highly of this practice. Where I have friends fighting to get themselves or a family member in for appointments or to be taken seriously and actually helped by other doctors in this area, I know Dr. Brown, Lisa (nurse), and the rest of PPP will make sure I can get the help I need. My only con is that my son has to get his vaccinations at a nearby doctor’s office. But, PPP arranges the appointment and we are in and out very quick.

While the cost of being a member may seem like an extra expense, keep in mind you are avoiding co-pays when going there so you aren’t paying an additional fee per visit, you are actually being listened to, you have access to the on-call doctor, referrals are quick, and medication refills are easy. Being on a budget, I wouldn’t spend the extra money if I didn’t find the service and peace of mind of having them as my doctor’s office 100% worth it.

I joined the practice 4 months ago at $150/ month because I read positive reviews online and was wondering if there was a better option than the Sutter Health corporate health machine. The practice advertises “concierge service” and “direct communication when it’s convenient for you.” I found the level of service and communication not as advertised.

I had a care related message go unanswered by the provider for a few days. I had to call and followup up with staff, and I received an apology from the provider blaming technical issues. The next month I had another delayed response with the same excuse.

I tried calling the office manager to discuss but never received a call back. The provider called me the next day and advised I bring concerns to him directly instead of the part-time office manager, and intimated I might want to reconsider if the relationship with the practice was working for me. I decided he was right, and will pocket the $150/ month and return to Sutter. Ultimately, I received the same level of service.

Dr. Lichti and staff are awesome.

What I like best about them is that I feel like a person and not an appointment time slot. When I first became a member, they worked to get to know me and immediately began working to understand how to keep me healthy. Rather than treating me just when I got sick, they worked to help me from getting sick in the first place.

I wasn't sure about the membership fee at first, but the more I looked to find another doctor, I just couldn't find one that matched them. For me, I'm getting a great value.

What an AMAZING experience these doctors and their staff provide. I have followed Dr. Brown from Grass Valley and drive an hour to see her! She has been the only doctor to truly help me feel better. Where else can you email you doctor and they get back to you asap! She even emails me to check in. Phone consults make like easy as well.

The staff at Placer Private Physicians are amazing, caring, intelligent, communicative and supportive health care professionals who will be there to help you. It is a new way of delivering health care that is truly a game changer. I went to Dr. Hedman and Dr. Lichti after another physician missed my massive pulmonary embolism that almost killed me because he could only spent 10 minutes with a patient. Those ten minutes almost cost my life. Now we gladly drive an hour to Rocklin. Thanks for reading this.
