About Me

Dr. Roberto Rupcich is a board-certified family medicine physician with clinical interests in practicing full-spectrum family medicine. Dr. Rupcich is passionate about adolescent health. He believes mental health is critical to well-being and spends a great deal of time discussing this topic with patients. He also takes great pride in offering “in-office” procedures to patients that require them. This includes, skin biopsies, joint injections, toenail removals and placement of long acting reversible contraceptives. Dr. Rupcich continues to learn more about natural ways to live a healthy lifestyle so he can guide his patients with optimal nutrition and safe use of supplements. Dr. Rupcich earned his medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and completed his family medicine residency at University of North Carolina (UNC) Hospitals.

Dr. Rupcich’s goal is to be an ally and help his patients reach their individual health goals. His wish is to be there for his patients and their families for decades to come. Dr. Rupcich believes this starts by developing a relationship based on trust and respect. Therefore, he feels that listening to his patients is the most important tool he has to perform his job. Outside of work, Dr. Rupcich enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife and is excited that his daughter is already mesmerized by nature. They enjoy going to the beach, boating on Jordan Lake and hiking the Blue Ridge or Smoky Mountains in Western, North Carolina.

Both receptionists were friendly and made sure to check on me during the long wait time. Dr. R was apologetic about being behind. He was compassionate and took extra time with me to ensure we not only got to the bottom of the issue, but made sure I understood what to do next time it happens.

I continue to be impressed with Dr Rupcich. He did something rare in my experience when he on his own time looked up some studies to give me additional options for treatment. He also seems genuinely interested in me and acts like a real person. I have already recommended him to others who were looking for a doctor.

Excellent intake by all. Felt the waiting and contact time, and knowledge and care by my physician were the biggest drivers. The excellent experience started at the door.

I had a great experience. The doctor was well informed of up-to-date medicine, which was a surprise. We had good conversation. I would definitely recommend him. I like the fact that he was up today unusual in this time. Medicine is going through a big change. I think prevention is now the important thing, and he seems to be up-to-date on how you accomplish this. I had a great experience. [Patient's name]

12/14/2023

My wife and I are new to the Triangle and it has not been easy to find a primary care provider with availability - being a health care provider myself I can be pretty attentive to good (and not so good) care. Dr. R was "great" - he took the time to introduce himself, to review records, and to explain options - all with good grace and humor and attention to detail. The check-in and check out process was a breeze. Your patient portal is also a "breeze"....so, so far so good. Happy holidays

Follow up on lab.

10/16/2023

My visit with Dr Rupich was due to my previous GP is closing his current practice. His level of attention and covering all old clinicals, and in some items, the lack thereof. He is personable, intelligent, and very attentive. For one lab, that returned positive, he called me directly to not be concerned until additional results were received. In fact the additional results proved it to be a non-issue in the end. I wish I had started my care with him earlier as being his patient has improved my health care.

Excelente servicio

09/28/2023

This was a very pleasant surprise. When I moved to Atlanta, I tried 3 different primary care physicians before settling on 1 for the next 20 years. Dr. Rupcich exhibited the characteristics and behavior I look for in a PCP. One visit is not enough contact time to be sure, but this was very encouraging.

I appreciate him helping me because my sugar was dropping extremely low and I was very sick. He simply told me to stop the new medication and never take it again.
