Turntable Health

Turntable Health was a primary care clinic based in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was founded with the aim of providing comprehensive and preventive healthcare services to its members. The clinic operated on a membership-based model, focusing on patient-centered care and wellness.

History

Turntable Health was co-founded by Zubin Damania, also known as ZDoggMD, a physician and healthcare advocate. The clinic opened its doors in 2013 as part of a collaboration with Iora Health, a company known for its innovative approach to primary care. The clinic was located in the Downtown Project, an initiative led by Tony Hsieh, the CEO of Zappos, to revitalize downtown Las Vegas.

Model of Care

Turntable Health adopted a unique model of care that emphasized preventive health and wellness. The clinic offered a range of services, including primary care, health coaching, and wellness programs. Members paid a monthly fee, which covered all services provided by the clinic. This model aimed to reduce the reliance on fee-for-service healthcare and to focus on long-term health outcomes.

Primary Care

Health Coaching

Wellness Programs

Turntable Health offered various wellness programs, including group classes and workshops on topics like nutrition, fitness, and mental health. These programs were designed to promote overall well-being and prevent illness.

Closure

Despite its innovative approach, Turntable Health faced financial challenges and closed its doors in January 2017. The closure was attributed to difficulties in scaling the membership model and sustaining the business financially.

Legacy
