Meet Dr. Zane Ahmed, DO

Providing Telehealth Services to Mohave County and all of Arizona
Accepting New Patients Today

I founded Sagauro Direct Care to bring medicine back to its intended purpose: personal, evidence-based, and relationship-driven.
After years of working within traditional healthcare systems, I saw how insurance barriers and rushed visits often stood in the way of meaningful care. I created a direct primary care virtual practice to give patients something different: time, access, and a physician who truly listens.
With Direct Primary Care, we form a private and affordable cash contract with our patients. This excludes insurance companies from routine care discussions, reserving them for true medical emergencies.
Whether you're managing a chronic condition, optimizing your health, or simply looking for a doctor who knows you personally, my goal is simple: to provide personalized care built around you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Ahmed is truly the kind of doctor you hope to find. He takes his time, actually listens, and makes you feel like your concerns matter. He is compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in understanding what is going on rather than simply rushing you through an appointment.
What I appreciate most is that he doesn’t just push pills and send you on your way. He thoroughly investigates, asks questions, looks at the bigger picture, and dives into your care to find answers. You can tell that he genuinely cares about his patients and wants to understand the “why” behind what is happening.

Most importantly, he gives you the time of day. You never feel rushed, dismissed, or like just another number. His approach makes you feel heard, respected, and cared for.
I’m incredibly grateful to have a doctor who takes such a thorough, compassionate, and personal approach to healthcare. Highly recommend Dr. Ahmed!

I want to take this time to thank you for your very professional, compassionate, prompt and attentive medical care.

I thought responding to your patients, middle of the night ramblings, were next level, but then you out do yourself by

Responding to your patient's simple medical inquiries while on vacation that's over the top Medical care.

Thank Brian

Video chat with doctor - very personable and knowledgeable.  Responds quickly to questions/concerns. Great business model vs booking appts months ahead, dealing with check-in personnel etc.  Highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Ahmed is very easy to talk to Aand takes time during each appointment to really listen. He focuses on integrating lifestyle changes and doesn’t just prescribe meds because he can. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for physician directed weight loss, primary care or mental health services to check him and his wife out! They are a great team.
