Dr. Josh Ezell is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician focusing on an array of preventive medicine and chronic disease management. While most internal medicine doctors practice either hospital-based or clinic-based medicine, Dr. Ezell practices both, and as a result, his patients will have one ‘go-to’ doctor for all of their needs. The ability to practice in both settings allows him to be there for his patients throughout their entire healthcare journey. Dr. Ezell is known for not only his comforting bedside manner but also for the ability to treat his patients as a whole person, not just a disease.

Originally from Indiana, Dr. Ezell attended Indiana University for his undergraduate studies before attending the Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences for his Master’s and Doctoral degrees. After meeting his medical school sweetheart, they both completed residency training in Columbus, Ohio before returning to her hometown of Kansas City to begin their family.

In 2022, Dr. Ezell decided to change career paths from his ‘fee-for-service’ medical practice to pursue a career in a Direct Primary Care practice. He joined Dr. John Dunlap’s already successful practice based out of Menorah Medical Center in Overland Park, Kansas, and began accepting patients in April of 2022. While this move was a surprise to many; it seemed almost intuitive to Dr. Ezell, as his highest career goal has always been to take care of patients to the best of his ability, something that the Direct Primary Care model enables him to do.
