I am Dr. Melissa Fore, and Advocate Primary Care is my direct primary care practice. I am an Internal Medicine physician, which means that I am trained in general adult medicine.  I completed my residency training at Mercy Hospital here in St. Louis and then worked in primary care at Mercy Clinic in Sunset Hills for 5 years.

Since 2021, I have provided telehealth and house calls through MyCatholicDoctor.  In early 2022, I met Dr. Glenn Fox, a Family Medicine physician with a direct primary care practice called Family Doctors Care (familydoctorscare.com).  He invited me to join him in his office and start up my own direct primary care practice alongside his.  We are now "partners" in the practical sense while each having our own practice.

I live in the Chesterfield area with my husband and identical twin boys who were born in 2020.  We attend Ascension parish.
