Meet Dr. McFarland
Dr. Meredith McFarland is a board-certified endocrinologist focused on thoughtful, patient-centered care.
Her goal is to offer a more personal alternative to the traditional healthcare experience, one built around time, access, and real relationships.
Care That Starts
with Listening
Many patients arrive feeling discouraged after months of waiting, rushed visits, or feeling like their concerns weren’t fully heard.
Dr. McFarland believes good care starts by slowing down enough to listen carefully, understand the full picture, and build a plan that fits real life.
That approach shapes every part of the practice.
Finally, an endocrinologist in Rhode Island who has time for you.

Why Direct
Endocrine RI Exists
Traditional healthcare systems often leave both patients and physicians feeling rushed and disconnected.
By keeping the practice smaller and more focused, patients receive more time, clearer communication, and a more responsive care experience.
Direct Endocrine RI was built around a simple idea, that every patient deserve:
Timely Access
Thoughtful Care
Real relationship with their physician
