Skypark Preferred Family Care
Verified listingAbout Skypark Preferred Family Care
Skypark Preferred Family Care is a concierge primary care practice at 23451 Madison Street, Suite 140, Torrance. Membership fees start, in the practice's own words, "as low as $850 based on your age and marital status". It is not a cash-only practice: it continues to participate in Medicare and works as an out-of-network group for most commercial insurance.
## What kind of practice is it?
Five categories of care are published: concierge care, geriatric care, primary care, acute and sub-acute care, and longevity medicine. Those are page titles rather than a treatment menu, and the longevity medicine page in particular is short and conceptual. It names no protocol, no lab panel, no supplement and no drug, which is worth knowing if you found this listing under longevity.
## What does membership cost, and how does it work with insurance?
One figure is published: "Our fees range from as low as $850 based on your age and marital status." That is a floor rather than a schedule, and the sentence does not state a billing period, so it should not be read as $850 a year. No fee table, no tiered grid, no per-visit price and no consultation fee appears anywhere on the site.
The FAQ describes the annual concierge practice fee as covering services Medicare does not cover and cannot pay for, and states that membership fees are non-refundable. Insurance keeps working alongside it. The practice publishes that it will "function as 'out-of-network' physicians for most patients with commercial insurance" and that it "will continue to be a participating provider in the Medicare program". The FAQ answers the obvious follow-up directly: "Skypark Preferred Family Care is a medical practice, not a health insurance program." You still need coverage.
## Who are the doctors?
Three physicians are named: Thomas W. LaGrelius, MD, FAAFP, published as founder and medical director; Nicole Zanin Lawrence, MD; and Jeffrey Karns, MD. No nurse practitioner, physician assistant or other prescriber is named anywhere on the site.
The office is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. The practice welcomes patients from Torrance, Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach and nearby locations in the South Bay.
## What we could not confirm
The full fee schedule, which is the question most people arrive with. The membership term: the FAQ refers to an annual practice fee, but no term length is published as such. Any medication the practice prescribes, since none is named. Telehealth availability and any states served. A published statement of who the practice is for. The steps of joining, or of the longevity programme. And how long the practice has been operating in its own voice; patient testimonials on the team page mention eighteen years and over a decade of care, but those are patients talking about one doctor rather than a published tenure.
A practical note on reading the site: several pages render as short teasers with "View All" links, and the substance sits two levels deep under the For Patients section. All of this was checked on 22 September 2026.
