About Carytown Direct Primary Care
Dr. Varys is a family and lifestyle medicine doctor at Carytown Direct Primary Care, a membership practice in Richmond that she opened with her husband, who is also a family physician. She names women's health and menopause care, weight loss medicine and pediatrics as her main interests, and she sees patients of all ages. The practice treats low estrogen in women with hormone therapy and also prescribes weight loss medication. Members get unlimited visits and can call or text their doctor directly, with same or next day appointments. IUD insertions and a few other procedures are done in the office. She went to medical school in Prague and says she opened the practice because care should be a real conversation rather than a rushed appointment.
