Best NYC Concierge Medicine Practices in 2026

Concierge medicine in New York costs between $1,500 and roughly $40,000 a year, and what that fee covers varies just as widely. We compared six practices that serve NYC patients on five criteria you can check yourself: annual price, diagnostics included, doctor access, convenience, and whether you need insurance. Our pick for the best concierge medicine in NYC is SONATA, which pairs whole-genome sequencing and 140+ biomarkers with ongoing care from board-certified doctors for $2,500 a year. SONATA publishes this guide, so every figure below links to its source.

• Price spans more than 25x. Parsley Health costs $1,500 a year when it is in-network with your insurance, and Private Medical is reported at about $40,000 per adult. Four of the six practices charge between $2,500 and $18,000.
• Diagnostics differ more than any other criterion. SONATA, PrimaryMD, and Fountain Life include whole-genome sequencing in the fee. The Lanby charges extra for it, and Parsley Health bills its labs to your insurance.
• SONATA, PrimaryMD, and Private Medical offer the most access. All three include same-day appointments, unlimited visits, and 24/7 coverage.
• Convenience depends on whether you want a clinic. SONATA is virtual, with at-home blood draws and video visits. PrimaryMD, Private Medical, The Lanby, and Parsley Health have Manhattan offices, and Fountain Life's New York center is in Westchester.
• Two practices run partly on insurance. Parsley Health bills visits, labs, and prescriptions to your insurance, and The Lanby bills some lab costs separately or through insurance. SONATA, PrimaryMD, Private Medical, and Fountain Life charge one membership fee and do not bill insurance.

Concierge medicine is primary care paid for with a membership fee. The fee buys a smaller patient panel, longer visits, and direct access to the same doctors year after year. Those doctors examine you, prescribe for you, and manage your care as your health changes.

What the fee covers varies. Some practices include every visit and test in one price. Others bill your insurance for visits or lab work and use the membership to pay for access, coordination, and time. In New York, annual fees run from under $2,000 to above $40,000.

Several services sit next to the category without belonging to it.

• Testing-only services such as Function Health and Superpower run blood panels and show you the results. They do not provide doctors who treat you and follow your care over time.
• Insurance-billed membership primary care such as One Medical charges a small annual fee for booking and app features. Every visit is billed to insurance.
• Imaging centers such as Prenuvo and Ezra offer a full-body MRI as a single scan, with no ongoing care afterward.

This guide includes only practices that combine a membership fee with ongoing care from the same doctors. Every practice below meets that bar, and each one defines the membership differently.

We scored each practice on five criteria, each worth up to 5 points, then weighted them into a score out of 100. Every point is awarded for something you can verify on a practice's website, in press coverage, or by calling. Figures were checked as of October 30, 2026.

We weighted diagnostics most heavily, then price and doctor access, because this guide is for people who want to prevent disease at a price they can keep paying. Convenience carries 5% because the ranking is about what a practice tests and how quickly you reach a doctor; if an office matters to you, the comparison table shows which practices have one. If you weight these differently, the table has the raw figures so you can rerank.

Where a practice does not publish a figure, we say so and score it on what is public. If you run one of these practices and a figure is out of date, let us know and we will update it.

The six practices below are ranked by their total score. Each profile lists what the membership costs, which tests the fee covers, how you reach your doctor, where care happens, and how insurance fits in. Scores are out of 100.

01SONATA, best for genome-informed preventive care at one all-in price

Score 90/100. SONATA is a virtual concierge practice whose $2,500 annual membership includes whole-genome sequencing at 30x coverage, polygenic risk scores for 19 conditions, DNA methylation testing for biological age and pace of aging, and a blood panel of 140+ biomarkers. Your blood is drawn at home and retested every six months. Members in New York also get DEXA and VO₂ max testing included.

Your genetics, biomarkers, and history shape your care plan. Two members with the same cholesterol can get different plans, because a higher inherited risk of heart disease may lead your doctor to set a lower ApoB target or order an earlier coronary calcium scan. SONATA's clinical AI, built by its own engineering team, helps your doctors connect current research to your results.

Members get unlimited visits, same-day appointments, and 24/7 messaging by iMessage or email. SONATA has no clinic and is not urgent care, though members can add a Sollis Health membership for $3,120 a year. Full-body MRI is not included; members get preferred pricing on Prenuvo and Galleri when their doctor recommends them. SONATA does not offer pediatric care.

• Price: $2,500 a year, with nothing billed on top
• Diagnostics: whole-genome sequencing, polygenic risk scores, biological age, 140+ biomarkers twice a year, DEXA and VO₂ max in New York
• Access: unlimited visits, same-day appointments, 24/7 messaging
• Convenience: at-home blood draws and video visits, no clinic
• Insurance: not billed; HSA/FSA eligible

Best suited for. Adults who want their genetics and biological age to shape their care, with doctors available the same day, at the lowest all-in price in this guide. Less suited to someone who wants an office to visit, full-body imaging included, or care for children.

02PrimaryMD, best for a clinic with urgent care included

Score 70/100. PrimaryMD was founded in San Francisco in 2024 by CEO Daniel Yuabov and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Sukhjit Takhar, who is triple board-certified in internal medicine, emergency medicine, and infectious disease. It has a Hudson Yards office at 503 W 35th St. and is opening a SoHo flagship at 430 W Broadway in November 2026 (PrimaryMD).

Membership costs $18,000 a year. It includes whole-genome sequencing once, 100+ marker blood panels drawn at home four times a year (two of them comprehensive), DEXA and VO₂ max twice a year, and a sleep study. Each member gets a team of a lead physician, an exercise physiologist, a medical assistant, and a care coordinator, and each team serves no more than 150 members. Members get same-day appointments, unlimited visits, quarterly reviews, and 24/7 urgent care through Sollis Health.

• Price: $18,000 a year
• Diagnostics: whole-genome sequencing, 100+ markers four times a year, DEXA and VO₂ max twice a year, sleep study
• Access: same-day, unlimited visits, 150 members per care team, Sollis Health urgent care
• Convenience: Hudson Yards and SoHo offices, at-home blood draws, video visits

Full comparison of SONATA and PrimaryMD

Best suited for. Professionals who want a clinic, an exercise physiologist, and urgent care in one membership, and whose budget allows $18,000 a year. Less suited to someone who wants biological age testing or a lower price.

03Fountain Life, best for full-body imaging every year

Score 49/100. Fountain Life runs diagnostic centers in New York, Florida, and Texas, and its New York center is in Westchester, about 35 minutes from Midtown Manhattan. The CORE membership starts at about $10,500 a year, and APEX pricing is available on request.

CORE members spend one day a year at a center for a full-body and brain MRI, CT, DEXA, 100+ biomarkers, and whole-genome sequencing, then review the results with a physician. Tests repeat once a year. A 24/7 care team and biological age testing are part of APEX only. Fountain Life uses AI to help read scans and offers a chatbot for questions about results.

• Price: from about $10,500 a year (CORE)
• Diagnostics: full-body and brain MRI, CT, DEXA, 100+ biomarkers, whole-genome sequencing
• Access: physician results review on CORE; 24/7 care team on APEX

Full comparison of SONATA and Fountain Life

Best suited for. People who want a full-body MRI and CT every year in one program and can travel to Westchester. Less suited to someone who wants a doctor to manage their care between annual visits.

04The Lanby, best for in-person primary care for your household

Score 44/100. The Lanby opened in 2021 as a primary care members' club at 535 Fifth Ave., between Bryant Park and Grand Central. Individual membership costs $10,000 a year plus a one-time, non-refundable $1,500 initiation fee, with household rates of $9,000, $8,000, and $7,000 for additional members, including children 3 and older (The Lanby).

Members get unlimited in-person and virtual visits, in-app messaging, after-hours clinical coverage, an 85+ biomarker panel, body composition analysis, and a Member Advocate who books specialist referrals. The practice takes an integrative and functional medicine approach. Blood is drawn in the clinic, some lab costs are billed separately or through insurance, and whole-genome sequencing costs extra.

• Price: $10,000 a year plus a $1,500 initiation fee
• Diagnostics: 85+ biomarkers, body composition; genetic testing extra
• Access: unlimited visits, in-app messaging, after-hours coverage
• Convenience: Midtown office, virtual visits

Full comparison of SONATA and The Lanby

05Private Medical, best for 24/7 access with house calls and travel support

Score 43/100. Private Medical was founded in San Francisco in 2002 by Dr. Jordan Shlain and opened its Manhattan office at 110 E 60th St. in 2019. The New York office has five doctors, and each cares for no more than 100 members (Private Medical). Members reach their doctor 24/7 by phone, text, or email, doctors make house calls, and the practice coordinates with a network of 4,000+ specialists, including travel support and medical evacuation.

Private Medical does not publish its price. Members quoted by CNBC put it at $40,000 a year per adult and $25,000 per child (CNBC). The fee covers visits and in-office tests, and the practice asks members to come to the office at least twice a year. It does not list genetic testing or which blood tests the fee includes.

• Price: not published; reported at about $40,000 per adult
• Diagnostics: in-office tests; genetic testing not listed
• Access: 24/7, same-day, unlimited visits, 100 members per doctor
• Convenience: East 60th St. office, house calls, virtual visits
• Insurance: membership not billed to insurance

Full comparison of SONATA and Private Medical

Best suited for. Executives and families, including children, who want round-the-clock access to a doctor with a very small panel and support while traveling. Less suited to someone whose main goal is advanced preventive testing at a moderate price.

06Parsley Health, best for functional medicine through your insurance

Score 37/100. Parsley Health is a functional medicine practice founded by Dr. Robin Berzin, with centers in New York (126 Fifth Ave.) and Los Angeles and telehealth in every state. Membership costs $1,500 a year when Parsley is in-network with your insurance. Without insurance it costs $2,750 to $3,300 a year (Parsley's pricing pages list both), with a 12-month commitment (Parsley Health).

The membership covers your care team, unlimited messaging, and nutrition coaching. Up to five clinician visits a year, lab work, and prescriptions are billed to your insurance, with copays and deductibles applying. Blood is drawn at Quest, LabCorp, or the New York center, and specialty tests such as DEXA or Prenuvo cost about $400 each. Parsley does not list genetic testing.

Full comparison of SONATA and Parsley Health

Best suited for. People who want a functional medicine approach for persistent symptoms and want their insurance to pay for visits and labs. Less suited to someone who wants unlimited visits and testing at one predictable price.

The table shows each practice's annual price, diagnostics included in the fee, doctor access, convenience, and insurance, along with its total score. Figures were checked as of October 30, 2026.

The highest score does not make a practice right for everyone. Find your top priority in the left column.

Your membership covers whole-genome sequencing, biological age testing, and 140+ biomarkers, retested every six months. Your blood draw happens at home, on your schedule. Your doctors review your full biology and walk you through a care plan built from it. You get same-day appointments and can message your care team any time, day or night. Nothing is billed to insurance on top of the $2,500. Explore SONATA to see if it fits what you need.
