The Soma Standard
Primary care today is rushed, reactive, and fragmented— brief visits, long waits, and care that begins only after symptoms appear.
But Soma is different.
At Soma, we combine advanced diagnostics, metabolic science, and personalized care so you don't just prevent disease— you optimize how you live, feel, and perform for decades to come.
Limited to 30 members. The most comprehensive head-to-toe preventive health assessment modern medicine can offer — with a dedicated cardiologist, full-body imaging, advanced cancer screening, and complete digital health integration.

iMembership & Medicare
Membership fees cover concierge access to your primary care physician and everything included in your selected tier. Soma does not bill insurance for membership services. Traditional Medicare beneficiaries are served through a separate Medicare Core tier (primary care only) and are not eligible for Soma Advanced or Soma Elite at this time. See Medicare details →
As a Board-Certified Internal Medicine physician and career Hospitalist, I have spent much of my professional life at the front lines of acute care at some of the most respected healthcare systems in the country. I have seen the end-stage of diseases that could have been identified, managed, and even reversed years prior.
I started Soma because I got tired of a system that only shows up when you're already sick.
Soma is currently accepting enrollment for founding memberships. Our clinics in Monterey and Salinas will officially open in early summer 2026, when we begin scheduling patient visits. Until then, we're booking Soma Syncs — brief intro calls where we walk through our tiers, answer questions, and onboard new members. Founding members can also start scheduling diagnostics ahead of the clinic opening.
What is concierge medicine, and how is it different from seeing a regular doctor?+
In a typical primary care practice, your doctor is managing 2,000+ patients. That means rushed appointments, long waits, and a physician who may not remember you between visits. At Soma, you pay an annual membership fee that gives your doctor the time and capacity to actually know you — unhurried visits, same-week access when it matters, and a physician who is thinking about your health between appointments, not just during them.
Do you take insurance?+
No. Soma is a cash-pay practice (Medicare beneficiaries have a different setup — see our full FAQ or contact us for more info). We don't bill insurance for office visits or for the services included in your membership tier.
On request, we can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
Is Soma a replacement for my primary care doctor?+
Yes. Dr. Munshi serves as your primary care physician. Routine wellness, chronic disease management, sick visits, specialist coordination — Soma handles all of it. You don't need to keep a separate primary care doctor.
What does my membership fee actually cover?+
Your membership is a retainer for access to your physician and all the services included in your tier — extended visits, advanced biomarkers, wellness diagnostics, care coordination, and proactive planning.
Anything outside your tier — prescriptions, hospitalizations, imaging not included, specialist visits — is coordinated by us but billed separately through your insurance.
How do I know which tier is right for me?+
We start with a 30-minute, no-commitment intro — the Soma Sync. We'll walk you through what each tier offers so you can decide what fits your needs. If you're still unsure after that, you can book our one-time consultation — a full wellness planning session with Dr. Munshi where we review your health history, biomarkers, lifestyle, and goals. Most people leave knowing exactly which tier fits. If you enroll in any Soma membership within 14 days, the consultation fee is credited toward your first year.
Why do you focus so heavily on cardiometabolic health?+
Because cardiovascular disease is still the leading cause of preventable death — and by the time standard tests catch it, the damage is often decades old. At Soma, we assess more than 350 data points through advanced blood work, body composition analysis, VO₂ Max testing, and a suite of other diagnostics designed to give us a true picture of where your cardiometabolic health is headed. We catch your trajectory early — before there's a problem to treat. If we protect the heart and the brain, we protect your future.
How many members does Soma accept?+
Each tier has limited capacity. This is a small boutique practice by design — we limit our membership to ensure your health strategy receives the depth, time, and focus it demands. Elite is capped at 30 members. Core and Advanced are similarly limited. Intentionally boutique. Exceptionally thorough.
