Best number to reach Dr Tinsley 757-951-7954    What is the name of your business/ministry and what do you do?   Lighthouse Direct Primary Care  Family Medicine, quality affordable healthcare. Same/next day 30–60-minute visits, unlimited appointments without a copay. I can keep you from spending your deductible and you don’t have to have insurance to see me.    What gave you the idea for your business/ministry?   I was going to quit medicine because corporate medicine is so abusive to patients and Physicians. A Physician online showed me this model.    What is your favorite thing about your business/ministry?   Bringing health CARE to those abandoned by the system whether it’s through 12 min visits, 2 week waits, physicians not having the time to listen or think they can’t afford it. I can get them a $2,500 CT for $150.    What are your methods for keeping productive?   Word of mouth has been the best advertising.    What advice would you give to others aspiring to succeed as a business owner/minister?   Perseverance is omnipotent. You need to honestly believe what you are doing is the best thing for your customer.    Name a few influential books you've read, websites you keep up with and share a favorite quote.   I have a poem in my wallet on perseverance I’ve carried for 28 years. I’ll share it during the podcast. I like historical medical texts like to see how Physicians solved problems with the technology they had on hand. Roman, Greek, Indian (2,500 yrs old), etc.    Tell us one interesting thing about yourself/business/ministry that you would want people to know.   I like to garden and read about medicinal herbs. I worked on a 20 acre farm every weekend in Quincy Florida growing up. I was driving a tractor and cutting the pasture for hay at 13 yrs old.    Where can people find you on social media?   https://lighthousedpc.com  Lighthouse Direct Primary Care is also on Facebook
