Our Why
Most primary care practices are run by large health systems (or companies like Amazon), incentivized to keep you sick, leading to long delays, rushed visits, and surprise bills—even with insurance.
At Partner Medical, we use a Direct Primary Care model: a monthly membership fee for comprehensive primary and urgent care for you and your children.
By keeping our membership capped and only charging a membership fee, our goals for your health are the same as yours—to keep you & your family healthy and happy.
The result? Personalized, wildly convenient, and high-quality healthcare for you and your family.

The Partner Medical Team
Chris Moag, MHS, PA-C
Physician associate
Hello! I grew up in Cleveland Ohio (went to school with Corey) and I’ve got 3 sisters (no brothers). Growing up in a family with so many women did have a few downsides (hair everywhere), but it forced me to learn how to listen - probably one of the main reasons I ended up in medicine. I love to listen to my patients, understand their perspectives, and build care plans that fit their goals and put them at ease.
I completed my training at George Washington University and have since worked at large emergency departments and busy community clinics. I’m grateful to now be a part of Partner Medical, where I can dedicate more of my time to understanding the needs of my patients and practicing truly personalized medicine.
My partner, Courtney (a PA at Northwestern), and I live in Bucktown. We love walking the 606, trying new restaurants all over Chicago, and watching live music (we’re regulars at the Salt Shed).

Hi there! I grew up in Cleveland (went to school with Chris) and have always had a passion for people - helping them navigate their life, health issues and dreams. Much of that passion is what drove me to medicine, training at some of the best institutions in the US, like Medical University of South Carolina (family medicine residency) and Maine General (emergency medicine fellowship).
This passion has been an inspiration for Partner Medical, where we’ve built a care model that enables us to have the time to build strong, lasting relationships with our patients and always be at the ready when they're in need.
On a side note, I studied screenwriting in undergrad and completed a medical journalism fellowship after residency. I regularly publish articles and work with local and national film makers. You can see some of my publications on the pbs website
