About Dr. Vance R. Lassey, MD
Holton Direct Care is an innovative Direct Primary Care (DPC) clinic serving Holton and Fairview, Kansas. Founded by Dr. Vance Lassey, MD, the practice replaces the traditional fee‑for‑service model with a transparent, membership‑based structure that puts patients first. Members receive unlimited virtual access 24 hours a day via phone, text, and email, as well as same‑day or next‑day in‑office appointments that are typically 30 to 60 minutes long. The clinic’s on‑site wholesale pharmacy and wholesale laboratory pricing provide additional cost savings, while a low‑cost membership eliminates co‑pays and surprise fees. The practice offers a comprehensive suite of clinical services. Routine in‑office procedures such as EKGs, ultrasound‑guided joint injections, skin excisions, and a range of cosmetic procedures are included at no extra charge. Advanced therapies like Platelet‑Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet‑Rich Fibrin (PRF) injections are offered at discounted rates. Holton Direct Care also provides medical piercing (earlobe, ear cartilage, and nose), Menopause Hormone Therapy, DOT and CDL physicals, new‑employment physicals, urine drug screens, and a variety of lab tests at wholesale prices. For patients needing specialist input, the clinic utilizes RubiconMD e‑consults, and it can arrange referrals when necessary. The multidisciplinary team combines seasoned physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and support staff who are deeply rooted in the community. Dr. Vance Lassey leads the practice, supported by APRN/NPs Daniel Jones, Marty Ellis, Laura Harmon, and Elisa Rottinghaus, PA‑C, among others. Administrative and clinical operations are overseen by business manager Erin Lassey, while nurses Miriam Eldridge, Rebecca Thorne‑Jones, Shelly Lance, and medical assistant Shannon DePrey ensure smooth patient flow. Together, they deliver personalized, high‑quality care that emphasizes relationship‑based medicine, affordability, and accessibility.
