Rooted in New Kent.
Built for everyone.

OUR STORY

New Kent Direct Care didn't start with a business plan. It started with a shared frustration — and a deep belief that there was a better way to deliver care.

Our roots in New Kent run generations deep. So does our experience — more than 50 years across primary care, emergency medicine, and healthcare operations. We've seen this system up close — and we knew it could be better.

Appointments booked out for weeks. Visits that felt rushed and impersonal. A healthcare experience built around processes instead of people. We wanted a practice where clinicians have the time to listen, and patients feel like more than a number on a schedule.

Our founding team has worked across the full spectrum of healthcare delivery — from community-based practices to national hospital systems, statewide government agencies, and large academic medical centers. That breadth of experience gave us a unique perspective on what patients and providers need most — and what healthcare can be.

New Kent is one of the fastest-growing counties in the Commonwealth of Virginia — and the gap between that growth and the availability of quality, accessible primary care was widening every year. We knew we were in a position to do something about it.

New Kent Direct Care is the practice we always wished existed. A place where you have a direct relationship with your care team, where your visits are unhurried, and where the focus is entirely on you.

Founded by Jaynie and Sean Lindsay, Angie and Christopher Lindsay, and Payton Hardinge and Matthew Nottingham — neighbors, partners, and believers that this community deserves more.
