neurologo privado
Concierge medicine is a type of medicine in which a patient pays a fee (or retainer) in exchange for 24/7 care. As a consequence the doctor acts as a "concierge" and is always ready.
"Concierge medicine" is also known as "retainer medicine, membership medicine"
In Spain most people have social security medical care (don't pay a direct fee, but it is financed through taxes) and little people pay an anual fee to have a medical insurance. As an example,one of my brothers in law went under brain surgery because he has Parkinson for free: He didn't have to pay a fee or the neurologist to go through surgery.
You could translate "concierge neurologist" as "neurologo de guardia" (on-call/on duty) but "being on call/on duty" is an obligation which is implicit in your profession and not something that you do only for money or a fee, so I believe the best translation in Spanish is "neurologo privado"

Medicina a la carta (también conocida como la medicina de retención ) es una relación entre un paciente y un médico de atención primaria en la que el paciente paga una cuota anual o retenedor. Esto puede o no ser, además de otros cargos. A cambio de la retención, los médicos proporcionan cuidados avanzados, incluyendo principalmente el compromiso de limitar el cupo de pacientes para garantizar el tiempo necesario y la disponibilidad para cada paciente.

neurólogo de atención personalizada
He encontrado varias páginas mexicanas (y estadounidenses traducidas) en que denominan la concierge medicine "atención médica personalizada"; también "medicina de concierge", pero suena horrible IMHO.
En otro sitio (ref. 2) he visto "Servicio de asistencia especializada", pero me cuesta adaptarlo... ¿neurólogo de asistencia personalizada?

Reference:
Concierge medicine (also known as retainer medicine) is a relationship between a patient and a primary care physician in which the patient pays an annual fee or retainer. This may or may not be in addition to other charges. In exchange for the retainer, doctors agree to provide enhanced care, including principally a commitment to limit patient loads to ensure adequate time and availability for each patient.[1]
The practice has been referred to as concierge medicine, retainer medicine, membership medicine, cash-only practice, and direct care. While all "concierge" medicine practices share similarities, they vary widely in their structure, payment requirements, and form of operation. In particular, they differ in the level of service provided and the fee charged.
