any patriots have experience with or knowledge of "PatriotDirect"?

this might be a case of good window dressing, because my family signed up and they have stated that it's mandatory that my wife and I get a full suite bloodwork before we have our initial meeting. while I am supportive of this proactive routine (we don't have any particular health complaints so it's not in response to that), it being mandatory is problematic to me.

on top of this, they almost exclusively work with Quest labs who around me (MA) require masking at their testing facilities. frigin masking?!? this makes me boil where all the evidence shows that masking is not only useless but harmful.

the good:

  • they are willing to use other labs if I make effort to find lab
  • they are more than willing to work with people and prescribe off-label treatments requested such as ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, etc
  • they aren't very expensive ($225 for a family of 5)

with them being so married to Quest I wonder if they are nothing more than an undercover 23 And Me or some other part of the medical cabal

any experience/feedback is greatly appreciated, including alternative suggestions.

in a perfect world we'd have a Dr that would prescribe off-market meds but mainly focus on natural healing via diet. and we'd have insurance that would cover lab work, scans, emergency care and care related to bone breaks, tendon tears and the like. I don't expect we'll ever seek referral "care" related to cancer treatments or any of the other usual specialists that push meds and other harmful alleged treatments
