Revolutionizing Personal Care: How Direct Pediatric Access is Changing Families’ Lives

What if you could text your child’s pediatrician directly, skip the waiting room, and even get a home visit when needed?

In this episode of Driven: Unscripted Success, Michael Mannino and Nareman Hamdan sit down with Dr. Michael Perisa, a pediatrician who's flipping the traditional healthcare model on its head. Michael shares his journey from pursuing pediatric oncology at St. Jude's to launching a patient-first, membership-based pediatric care system in Northeast Ohio.

Learn how Zest Pediatric Network provides 24/7 direct access to pediatricians, eliminates unnecessary insurance barriers, and brings care into the home—all for a flat monthly fee. Michael opens up about the broken system of traditional care, the burnout it causes, and how his new model empowers both families and doctors.
