Meet Dr. Jessica Mendelsohn, owner of New South Family Medicine and MedSpa located in Fort Mill, SC.
Dr. Mendelsohn is originally from Virginia Beach, VA and went to Virginia Tech for her undergraduate studies. After graduating from Eastern Virginia Medical School in 2003, Dr. Mendelsohn moved to Charlotte, NC to begin her residency training in Family Medicine. Upon completion in 2006, she practiced in Charlotte for 8 years at a large hospital practice, and then in hospice care for 5 years. In 2019, Dr. Mendelsohn opened New South Family Medicine as a solopreneur. New South has since grown into both a booming direct primary care (DPC) practice and a full service medspa.
Dr. Mendelsohn now employs 15 teammates, including her husband, Dr. Dave Mendelsohn, who joined her primary care practice in 2022. Along with two amazing PA’s, they serve more than 1000 DPC patients.
The MedSpa at New South opened in 2021 and has grown to a team of ten women that provide a wide range of medical-grade aesthetic services, including injectables, laser treatments, and hormone therapy.
Dr. Mendelsohn is passionate about both physician independence and entrepreneurship. Intent on restoring the relationship between physician and patient, Dr. Mendelsohn is expanding New South into a holistic model that will include mental health, nutrition, and preventive health services. She intends to expand New South into multiple physician-owned locations and is looking for physicians ready to leave fee-for-service medicine and take back ownership of their clinical practice and work-life balance.
In addition to New South, Dr. Mendelsohn loves entrepreneurship and real estate. She is sole owner of the building that houses her medical practice, owns another commercial medical building, invests in passive syndications, and is actively pursuing other business ventures and start-ups.
Dr. Mendelsohn is an avid philanthropist and is actively involved in multiple nonprofits throughout her community. She loves traveling, yoga, running, hiking and spending time with her first loves, sons Charlie and Henry and Dr. Dave.
