Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a healthcare model where patients pay a flat, affordable monthly fee to access comprehensive primary care services. It is important to note that DPC is not an insurance plan; rather, it’s a way to enhance the doctor-patient relationship and improve access to care. With DPC, you have easier access to your doctor, including sooner appointments, longer visit times, and personalized care tailored to your needs. Think of it like car insurance—just as you don’t use car insurance for routine oil changes or tire rotations, DPC helps you maintain your health and address smaller concerns before they become bigger, more expensive issues. It’s about helping you heal and also  preventative care while forming a strong, ongoing relationship with your doctor to keep you healthy in the long run.

  • Please schedule a complimentary meet & greet to secure a membership with Dr. April Soto at LALIM Health.

  • No, you do not need to be a member to have a  Ketamine or Breathwork Journey.

  • No, you do not need to be a member for these specific services if you would like to have a la carte services.

  • It is requested that patients stay for 3 months to address issues in a comprehensive fashion. After the 3 months, patients can go month to month.

    If Dr. Soto's panel is open, there is a $300 re-enrollment fee (in addition to the $200 monthly fee).

  • While we do not take insurance, we can use your insurance (in most cases) for medications, laboratories, and imaging. For certain a la carte services, we can provide a superbill upon request.* You may submit this to your insurance for possible reimbursement.

  • A superbill is a detailed receipt that includes diagnosis and procedure codes. It can be submitted to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement, depending on your plan. Please note that while we’re happy to provide a superbill for a la carte services, reimbursement is not guaranteed.*

    *Important Note on Superbills

    We can provide superbills upon request for a la carte services. However, insurance reimbursement is not guaranteed and is subject to your plan's policies and limitations. Superbills are not typically useful for membership services, which are generally not covered by insurance providers.

  • Insurance typically does not cover membership-based care. For this reason, we do not recommend submitting a superbill for membership services. However, many patients find that our direct care model ultimately saves time, reduces overall costs, and helps avoid delays in accessing personalized, consistent care.

WHAT IS INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE?

Integrative medicine is a type of healthcare that looks at the whole person—not just the illness. It combines regular medical treatments with evidence-based natural and supportive practices like healthy eating, breathing techniques, meditation, herbal treatment and supplements, movement, and spirituality. The goal is to care for the mind, body, and spirit together, not just treat symptoms.

PATIENT LOVE

  • "She’s present in a way that fills your heart, no matter how dark or lost you may feel when you arrive. And the natural high lingers with you the rest of the day. She’s sincere in her process, her remedy, her journey with you. It’s reciprocal. Both our energies intertwine to just be free and be loved. Her array of sounds fills the room with joy, silliness, fun, relaxation, laughter, and most importantly, love."

    -Christine N.

  • “Dr. April is such a beautiful, kind soul. You forget that she's a licensed medical doctor because her approach is holistic. But don't let that fool you. She knows her stuff! Dr. April welcomed me with open arms, is very encouraging and her office is literally full of butterflies. I knew instantly I was in the right place...”

    - C.N.

  • "Dr Soto is professional, ethical and extremely talented at her craft. She has the best of both alternative/holistic and western medicine approaches. Her attention to detail and one on one care is unbeatable. I highly recommend seeing Dr Soto for your medical/healing needs"

    -Luisa F.

  • "If you are tired of health insurance dictating your needs, tired of the lack of time, concern and care of your well-being, then Dr. April Soto is a physician you should definitely consider. I knew with my initial conversation she would add the sunshine to a dismal, frustrated health consumer. Happy to report we have made a successful turn with my health. It's only been six months, but we are working together to continue the success and obtain the desired outcome."

    -Lorrie L.

  • "As a queer man, the struggle is REAL to find a health care provider who is culturally competent and empathetic to LGBTQ+ health issues. But Dr. Soto is all this and MORE. She truly centers her patients' truths and experiences in her practice. She is full of joy and love and radiates this every time I see her. I walk away from our sessions not only feeling cared for and safe, but also feeling seen and empowered. The health care industry needs more practitioners like Dr. Soto, and I am incredibly thankful and lucky to be under her care."
