About Artemis Life Medicine

What is Artemis Life Medicine?

Artemis Life Medicine is a direct primary care practice at 1229 Madison St, Suite 1040, Seattle, WA 98104. Its main work is adult primary care, run on a membership in which one flat monthly fee covers visits and access to the doctor. Dr. Neha Didwaniya founded the practice and is its listed prescriber. She is board-certified in Internal Medicine and in Hospice & Palliative Medicine, with two decades of experience caring for adults.

Alongside primary care, the practice offers perimenopause and menopause care, metabolic health and weight care, home-based primary care, and chronic disease management. Hormone therapy for men and women and GLP-1 medication management are offered when appropriate. The GLP-1 medicines are not named, so ask about them directly. Visits can happen in clinic, by telehealth, or at home where applicable. Hours are Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm, and members can reach the practice after hours by phone and secure text. It is not an emergency or urgent care service. New patients start with a free Meet & Greet, and returning patients of Dr. Didwaniya can enroll directly. The practice has a Google rating of 5 from 3 reviews. Its patient testimonials come from Dr. Didwaniya's previous practice.

What does it cost?

Adult Primary Care is $450 a month and includes perimenopause and menopause care. Perimenopause & Menopause Care on its own is $325 a month. Home-Based Primary Care is $575 a month, with up to one home visit a month and travel within the service area included. The adult and perimenopause plans list no enrollment fee.

Medications are not included in any of these fees. The membership also leaves out hospital care, surgeries, emergency room services, specialist visits, imaging, and outside lab fees beyond the included wholesale labs. The practice recommends keeping a separate insurance plan for hospital care, specialists, and emergencies, and it does not say whether it bills insurance. It does not publish a consultation fee beyond the free Meet & Greet, and it does not state a commitment period or cancellation terms. In its own words: "One flat monthly fee. No copays. No surprise bills."

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether a GLP-1 or hormone medication is part of the monthly fee or billed on top, and what it would cost each month. The practice offers "transparent pricing where possible" on medications, so ask what that means in dollars. Ask which GLP-1 medicines are prescribed, and whether each one is brand-name or compounded.

Ask which tier the $575 home plan covers, since three tiers are listed under one price. Ask how often hormone labs are repeated and what they cost beyond the wholesale lab pricing through Labcorp and Quest. Ask how you cancel, whether there is a minimum term, and whether any visit or lab would be billed to insurance. Ask who covers when Dr. Didwaniya is away. The practice names Micropractice Mamas Seattle, a group of independent internal medicine physicians, so confirm whether that coverage is included in your membership.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a physician-led primary care membership in Seattle, you can keep a separate insurance plan for hospital, specialist, and emergency care, and you want weight or hormone medication managed by the same practice. It may not suit you if you need weekend hours, urgent care, or medications included in the monthly fee.
