Beatrice Deshommes, M.D.

Yes. While Dr. Deshommes does not perform daily hospital rounding, she does provide courtesy visits to her patients at Jupiter Medical Center when appropriate.
This approach allows her to remain accessible and involved in your care while preserving the high-touch, personalized experience that defines concierge medicine.

Concierge members within the practice may have the opportunity for coordinated care across providers, including access to Dr. Poncy when appropriate.
For patients interested in working with both Dr. Deshommes (or Dr. Boss) and Dr. Poncy, customized package options are available. These are designed to provide a seamless, integrated approach to both primary care and women’s health, ensuring continuity, convenience, and comprehensive support.

Our concierge model allows for flexible, patient-centered care-including in-home services when needed. For patients who have difficulty leaving their home, we offer access to a dedicated house call nurse who can provide support and care in a comfortable setting.
In select cases, Dr. Deshommes may also conduct home visits for patients with special or extenuating circumstances. The concierge structure gives her the flexibility to do so without the limitations often found in traditional practices.
This approach ensures that patients receive the care they need-where and when they need it-while maintaining the high level of personalization and accessibility that defines concierge medicine.

Dr. Deshommes’ approach to preventive care begins with truly understanding each patient. She takes the time to gather a comprehensive medical history and perform a thorough risk assessment tailored to the individual.
Her recommendations are grounded in evidence-based medicine, shaped by her advanced training in Rochester. From there, she develops personalized strategies focused on early intervention, risk reduction, and long-term health optimization.
This thoughtful, data-driven approach allows patients to make informed decisions and proactively protect their health-rather than reacting to issues after they arise.

Accessibility is a cornerstone of Dr. Deshommes’ care model. Patients can expect consistent, reliable communication both during and after office hours.
During the day, her experienced team helps manage messages and calls to ensure nothing is missed while she is with patients. If something urgent arises, she can be interrupted when necessary.
After hours, all calls are monitored by a nurse who can address many concerns directly or escalate to Dr. Deshommes when needed. Patients have access to care 24/7 in one form or another-ensuring they are always supported, no matter the situation.

When your concierge physician is unavailable, care is seamlessly covered by a trusted partner within the practice-most often Dr. Dan Boss.
This ensures you continue to have access to a physician who is familiar with the concierge model and committed to providing the same high level of personalized, responsive care without interruption.

Dr. Deshommes maintains strong, direct relationships with a trusted network of specialists and communicates with them regularly-often by phone or text-to ensure seamless coordination of care.
This close level of collaboration allows for real-time input, more informed clinical decisions, and a truly integrated approach to patient care. It often feels like an extension of primary care, where communication is immediate and nothing is overlooked.
Compared to more fragmented systems, this model enables her to advocate more effectively for her patients, streamline referrals, and ensure they receive timely, well-coordinated care.

Dr. Deshommes’ prior clinical experience has significantly enhanced the way she cares for patients today. It has shaped a more proactive, prevention-focused approach-centered on frequent follow-ups and ongoing touch points to closely monitor progress and support the healing process.
This continuity allows her to identify potential issues early, reduce unnecessary hospitalizations, and help prevent avoidable complications. Rather than reacting to problems after they arise, she focuses on anticipating and managing risks before they escalate.
The result is a more attentive, coordinated, and forward-thinking model of care that prioritizes long-term health and better outcomes.

Dr. Deshommes often reminds patients that you don’t have to be “sick” to benefit from concierge medicine. One of the biggest misconceptions is that concierge care is only for those with complex or ongoing health issues.
In reality, it’s ideal for individuals who value continuity, accessibility, and a more proactive approach to their health. Patients have direct access to their physician and can be seen promptly when something arises-without long wait times or barriers to care.
She has seen many patients come to her simply because they were unable to get timely appointments elsewhere when they needed it most. Concierge medicine ensures that whether you’re feeling well or dealing with an urgent concern, your physician is available, responsive, and fully invested in your care.

For Dr. Deshommes, medicine is not just about taking care of patients-it’s about truly caring for them. She is deeply invested in each person’s overall well-being, not just their immediate medical concerns.
Her approach is rooted in genuine compassion and connection. It’s never about numbers or volume-it’s about the individual in front of her and what they need to feel well, supported, and understood.
Patients can expect a physician who is fully present, personally invested, and committed to their health in a meaningful and lasting way.

Dr. Deshommes is deeply passionate about prevention and preserving long-term health. Over the years, she has cared for many patients and has also experienced the loss of patients to complications that, in some cases, may have been preventable. That perspective has shaped her commitment to proactive care.
She focuses on identifying risks early-particularly around conditions like obesity, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic health-and intervening before they progress. Her goal is not just to treat illness, but to prevent disease altogether and preserve quality of life and bodily function for as long as possible.
This preventative, forward-thinking approach is at the core of how she practices medicine today.

Many patients come in with underlying concerns they may not fully express or may have unintentionally normalized over time. Often, they sense that something isn’t quite right but haven’t had the opportunity-or prior experience-to explore it in depth.
Dr. Deshommes takes a thoughtful, investigative approach, looking beyond surface-level symptoms to understand the full picture. She prioritizes uncovering root causes, asking the right questions, and connecting the dots in a way that is often missed in more time-constrained settings.
Her goal is to identify and address issues that might otherwise go unnoticed, ensuring patients receive comprehensive, meaningful care-not just quick answers.

Dr. Deshommes wants every patient to feel truly seen, heard, and thoroughly cared for. Her goal is that patients leave each visit with clarity, confidence, and the reassurance that their concerns were fully addressed-never rushed or overlooked.
She strives to ensure that each patient feels supported, understood, and confident in their care plan, knowing they have a physician who is fully invested in their well-being.

Patients who are engaged, motivated, and proactive about their health tend to thrive most under Dr. Deshommes’ care. She works best with individuals who value prevention over reaction and are interested in taking an active role in their long-term wellness.
Her approach focuses heavily on identifying and managing risk factors early-particularly for conditions such as heart disease and other cardiovascular concerns-so that complications can be prevented rather than treated later.
Dr. Deshommes views care as a true partnership, working closely with patients who are committed to optimizing their health and making informed, forward-thinking decisions.

Patients often share that they are truly grateful to have found Dr. Deshommes. The most consistent feedback is centered around the time, attention, and genuine care she provides. She listens closely, takes concerns seriously, and ensures patients never feel rushed or overlooked.
Her accessibility is another key difference-she remains available between visits and follows up proactively, creating a sense of continuity that is often missing in traditional care. This allows her to effectively manage both acute and ongoing concerns, guiding patients through their care every step of the way.
Ultimately, patients feel supported, known, and confident that they have a physician who is fully invested in their health.

Dr. Deshommes places a strong emphasis on comprehensive risk assessment-going far beyond standard evaluations. She carefully considers family history, lifestyle factors, and how different body systems interact to influence overall health.
In addition to traditional testing, she often incorporates more advanced and less commonly utilized diagnostics to better understand metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors. This may include deeper, more functional assessments that provide a broader picture of a patient’s health.
What truly sets her apart is not just ordering these tests, but thoughtfully interpreting them-taking the time to understand what they mean for each individual. This allows her to develop highly personalized, evidence-based strategies that address root causes and support long-term health.
Ultimately, her approach is centered on truly knowing her patients and delivering a level of insight and care that goes well beyond the standard.

Interestingly, the way Dr. Deshommes cares for patients hasn’t fundamentally changed-she has always believed in spending more time, going deeper, and truly understanding each individual. What has changed is the ability to consistently practice that way.
In traditional models, those values were often limited by time constraints, which can lead to frustration and even burnout. The concierge model provides the bandwidth to deliver the level of care she has always envisioned-thoughtful, thorough, and patient-centered.
What she loves most is that it makes this approach sustainable. It allows her to build meaningful relationships, spend the necessary time with each patient, and provide a higher level of care without compromise.
