“Dr Ahmed is an amazing provider! I recently now have had two hospital stays and he has been nothing short of amazing both times. He gives quality compassionate care to his patients. He genuinely cares for his patients. Guides you to help make the best decisions for your healthcare. He takes the time to explain things in detail and never makes you feel rushed or a burden. Which for me is very important. I highly recommend him if you are looking for top notch primary care. ”

Hello!
I'm Dr. Zane Ahmed, DO. Board-certified in Internal Medicine, and founder of Saguaro Direct Care | Telemedicine and Weight Loss.
We are a Virtual Telemedicine practice which operates through a Direct Primary Care (DPC) model instead of the traditional insurance billing model. This means I do not accept or bill your insurance company after completion of our visit.
At Saguaro Direct Care, we don’t answer to insurance companies—we answer to you. By cutting out third-party interference, we’re able to offer truly personalized concierge care, transparent pricing, and discounted cash rates that put your health at the center of every decision
OTHER SERVICES:
Ask about our Weight Loss Program through diet, lifestyle, and pharmacotherapy through GLP-1’s (semaglutide or tirzepatide). Please note, you must be a member to participate in our weight loss program.
Access to Specialized functional lab testing: GI-MAP for identifying gut dysfunction, DUTCH testing, Food Allergies, Heavy Metal, and autoimmune labs
MEDICARE PATIENTS:
Please note, even if you wish to self-pay, we are not able to see MEDICARE patients due to Federal laws on DPC practices. Please do not book if you are on Medicare.
Thank you,
Dr. Ahmed, DO
