Our Whole Purpose

is Your Health.

Hi! I’m Dr. Tagge, founder of Whole Purpose Health, a 501c3 non-profit direct primary care (DPC) medical practice.

We are dedicated to making high-quality, accessible healthcare available to everyone, without the barriers of traditional insurance. Just send your doctor a message, and your doctor responds.

Our mission focuses on empowering patients to improve their health through personalized, evidence-based virtual care that emphasizes prevention, lifestyle optimization, and long-term wellness.

If you are intersted in becoming a patient, you can schedule your first visit below. Use code freestart to establish care for free. Limited time only!!!

Note: No doctor-patient relationship is established until your first visit with Dr. Tagge.

Why virtual DPC?

Because traditional office insurance-based healthcare is just not cutting it.


In virtual DPC, you get an actual doctor. You get real-time access when you need it, from wherever you are. Just send a secure message. Boom, get a response. Crazy in today’s world right?


No insurance middlemen, no co-pays or complicated nonsense, no waiting rooms. Just a physician attending to your health. For one flat predictable monthly fee of $150, you get exceptional affordable health care.


It’s medicine the way it should have been all along updated for the modern era: personalized, proactive, preventive and rooted in community and relationship.

Why Virtual? Because your health extends well beyond just the traditional office visit. My aim is to be present and continuous in your life, so that you can reach your health goals and live the fullest life you can imagine for yourself. If an in-person visit is necessary, we will make accommodations for you to be seen.

Why Direct? Direct in DPC stands for direct contracting. A simple agree between patient and provider. This is extremely powerful as it aligns our incentives. I’m not working for anyone except YOU. You can cancel anytime with no strings attached. My goal is that you don’t want to!

The Primary Care? Well, you can leave that to me. I can take care of patients from cradle to grave (young to old). I’m licensed and board-certified in Family Medicine and certified in Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) and Medical Acupuncture. I can take care of all your healthcare needs from a traditional western allopathic lens to the more ancient medicine of eastern energetics.

Why a non-profit? I am deeply frustrated with the traditional healthcare system's inefficiencies and inequities, and I have a genuine passion for restoring meaningful doctor-patient relationships and providing compassionate, accessible care to anyone. Ultimately, it's about transforming healthcare into a calling that truly heals communities inspired by spiritual, ethical, and personal values.

I’ve helped >1000s of patients. Here are notes from a few before I left the hospital to start my own practice.

  • “Dr. Tagge was fantastic. He was approachable and professional, answering questions and outlining a plan – all while truly, actively listening. I didn’t experience the level of care that he provided, and I’m confident in his assessment and the plan we have moving forward towards better health! Hearing that we will no longer be at Atrium was deflating considering the top-notch level of care and knowledge he provides. He’s one of the ‘good ones’ that don’t throw pills at everything and really try to find the root cause while making a personalized plan moving forward. I’ll keep an eye on where he goes, I sure wouldn’t mind an extra ‘drive’ for the health care model he provides!”

    Katie Carpenter

  • “Dr Tagge is amazing. He stays invested in my ongoing care. Always listens to what I’ve got going on, looking for underlying reasons for certain symptoms and doesn’t just throw medicine at me and send me on my merry way. He is always looking for ways to better myself for not only the short term but the long term as well. If you are in or around ACO I would highly recommend him for your Primary care. I’ve been truly blessed to have him and his NP and nurses on my medical care team.”

    Krystie Rigsby

  • “Dr. Tagge is the best he’s a great person and a wonderful doctor and you letting him go is so upsetting to me and many of his patients that I know we can’t figure out who we will go to for our health care letting him go was a big mistake and I hope and pray that you will figure out a way to keep him... also the nurses and the people at the front desk are great.”

    Christine Hesselbarth

  • “He is a passionate and caring Doctor. He has really changed my life and motivated me when I was down about my struggles with weight. He listens to me and gives me great advice and I am thankful for finding him!!!!”
