As a patient, you deserve to have time with your doctor in order to come up with the care plan that is best for you and for your doctor to be available when you need them in a way that’s convenient for you. You deserve to have going to the doctor be a positive and experience--something you just might look forward to!
COVID19 UPDATE - Now accepting virtual only patients as well. For those who don’t have a trusted longitudinal relationship with a primary care physician, we are happy to provide virtual medicine relationships to evaluate and treat those conditions that can safely be treated virtually and help you navigate improving your health going forward. In addition, we can help you triage symptoms and conditions and guide your decision to seek in-person care.
For all patients, we are following the CDC and Ohio Department of Health’s guidance to use virtual medicine as much as possible. All consultations start with a video chat/ phone call and I evaluate your need for in-person care from there.
-Dr. Paige Gutheil and Dr. Robin Newburn

Signature Primary Care and Wellness is located in Hilliard - 4611 Trueman Blvd (next to OrthoOne Physical Therapy).
Many people aren’t happy with medicine these days–both patients and doctors! As a patient, you deserve to have time with your doctor in order to come up with the care plan that is best for you and for your doctor to be available when you need them in a way that’s convenient for you.
As physicians, we want to have a direct relationship with you that is not interrupted by insurance, employers or others who might not have your best interest in mind. We want to have time with you, be available for you and connect with you when and how it’s convenient–not when the insurance rules say we can.
RELATIONSHIP Signature Primary Care is based on a strong doctor patient relationship built out of teamwork, trust and mutual respect. It’s like consulting with a trusted friend--not a medical technician.
ACCESSIBILITY We keep our Signature Primary Care patient panels small so you can have direct access to your doctor. Secure email...between visits. Visits are friendly, comfortable and unrushed.
APPROACH We are osteopathic family physicians who believes in treating the whole person - mind, body and spirit. We practice utilizing an integrative approach focused on lifestyle and natural treatments together with the best of modern medicine.
We believe that we best serve those who are willing to partner with us to explore every aspect of their health--physical, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, you name it. With a limited number of Signature Primary Care patients, we can make recommendations and form a plan with you based on knowing your unique situation and preferences.
We believe strongly in our healthcare team and work seamlessly together to best serve you. You’ve made the commitment to partner with your doctor in an innovative way and we make the commitment to you to honor your office visit as an on-time, comfortable, welcoming experience!
That’s right. When something happens after hours that needs direct attention you’ll be able to talk directly with your doctor and determine what to do together, rather than run off to retail clinics, urgent cares or emergency departments. Round-the-clock care from a physician? You betcha.
Of course, in the event of a true emergency, you’ll always call 911. And while our doctors are able and more than willing to handle a lot of after hours issues, some will still need to be evaluated at a center of higher level of care.
We believes that some of the best medicine is NOT medicine at all and we will partner with you to choose your treatment regimens to minimize “just another pill” approaches and maximize safe, effective, evidence-based integrative approaches.
Imagine you had an app where you could directly connect with your doctor and and her team to access your medical information, ask questions, track data (like blood sugar, blood pressure, weight, calories), make appointments and share information through messaging, calls or video. Our innovative platform allows you to collaborate with us through technology at no extra cost to you!
“With Signature Primary Care you have such a different type of access to your doctor. Whether it be videochat, phone, texting ... I'm able to connect with patients in such a personal way now. And that connection is the basis of building your Whole Health - body, mind, spirit…and life!” -Dr. Paige

Oh boy! We wish we could do all those things with a traditional medical model, but we can’t! We have always believed in listening to patients, creating a personalized plan for them, being there when they need us and we know patients appreciate that. The reality is though that the insurance models require a LOT of cost to run a practice and have reimbursement rules that hinder us from taking the time we’d like to practice a comprehensive approach or using technology the way we’d like. And it’s getting worse and worse. Instead of joining a BIG hospital system that can absorb the costs (that’s a BIG step AWAY from a personalized connection), we stepped back in time to good old-fashioned healthcare in a modern way. In addition, because Dr. Paige has a family to prioritize and spends some time teaching medical students to be awesome primary care doctors in the future, this model allows her to be there for her patients even when she enjoying other aspects of her life.
Yes. As of October 1, 2017, you must be a member of Signature Primary Care and Wellness to obtain primary care from our doctors.
Prioritizing the membership investment is an important decision. It’s a HUGE value, but sometimes it’s takes a little thinking outside the box to see that. For many, simply the reassurance of having a personal connection with a physician who will be there when you need her in a comfortable and convenient way is MORE than worth it. Beyond that, it doesn’t take much thought to realize that the potential saved urgent care and ER visits with a timely evaluation by your doctor, the peace of mind of having questions answered without spending hours asking Dr. Google, the direct service, the innovative Health app to make improving your health convenient, the time off work saved because some in person visits can be replaced by virtual visits all adds up to much more than the membership. In addition, for those who qualify for government assistance and are unable to prioritize their membership fees in their budget, we provide a certain number of memberships on scholarship or sliding scale. Click here to inquire. Would you like to give back to your local community by donating all or portion of a membership to someone in need? Click here to donate.
You may choose to use your insurance for more expensive things outside the office: medication, lab costs, hospital services and we will work with your insurance to coordinate that care and find the most cost-effective plan. All services provided by our doctors are INCLUDED in you membership at no extra charge, so no worries about copays, deductibles or coinsurances. We still recommend using medical insurance or reputable health share plans for higher cost care.
Absolutely! The majority of our patients have insurance - many really “good” insurance. Because we are not bound by the red tape of insurance, your membership is the same with or without health insurance.
You’ll have your doctor’s direct contact information for urgent issues and questions that need to be taken care of after hours. She’ll do her best to handle them and NOT send you to Urgent Care or ER. That’s it. For real.
One of the BEST things about Signature Primary Care is that it allows you to form a treatment plan with your doctor based on what’s medically appropriate (not what the insurance thinks is appropriate). That means we can decide together if you need an in-person visit, a video chat or phone call, an email or even a home visit in some cases. Of course, in order to diagnose and manage many conditions, nothing beats being face to face, but you and your doctor will decide that together.
You believe that your relationship with your primary care doctor should be a close one based on mutual trust and respect.
You are comforted by the thought that if something arises, your personal doctor will be your available for an opinion, not only based on what’s going on at the time, but also knowing your medical history and life circumstances.
You are busy and want your health to fit into to your life in a more convenient way.
You are a think outside the box type of personality and are willing to adopt new processes that make sense to you even before large industries recognize their value.
You may not be a “techy”, but you are comfortable with the use of technology in other areas of your life and are willing to use newer technologies like email, messaging and video in addition to good old fashioned face to face visits and phone calls.
You are content with seeing many different providers at urgent cares or minute clinics for small illnesses or injuries that come up.
You’d prefer to let large industries (like insurance or hospital systems) set the rules and wait on them to change them before you adopt new processes.
You trust that what your health insurance covers is the best healthcare you need.
You don’t have access to the internet or email and are not willing to explore this in addition to face to face visits.
Dr. Robin’s patient panel is open and we would love to have you! Enroll promptly to join the Signature Primary Care family!
