About Tracy R. Barefield, MD

Since graduating from the Medical College of Georgia, I have been practicing family medicine for over 22 years in the Central Savannah River Area. My goal as a physician is to provide my patients with an excellent healthcare experience. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. I have more time to develop a personalized care plan tailored to each patient with an emphasis on prevention and wellness.  

I have my Master’s Degree in dietetics and nutrition and have a special interest in women’s health. I have been awarded Best Doctors and Top Doctors in America. I enjoy the outdoors and love to go 4-wheeling, do trap shooting and archery. I especially enjoy spending time with my sons, James and Jacob, when they are home from college.

I just want to say, not only is Dr. Barefield my doctor, she is more like a friend or family member. I feel that I can talk to her about anything and everything. Not just health wise or goals. It's more like having a sister I never had. No matter what is going on in my life I can always talk to her about it. Whether it be personal or just cutting up. I love her bedside manner. She has always…

My children and I started seeing Dr. Barefield many years ago when the kids were teenagers. They affectionately refer to her as Dr. B or Auntie Tracy! Now my adult daughter and her husband see Dr. B, and my adult son as well as my husband have joined MDVIP! We feel very blessed to have such a caring and compassionate doctor and one we consider part of our family!

She is not only like a friend she truly cares for her patients. She listens to the problem we’re having and goes out of her way to find a solution. She’s available if we have something urgent and need to discuss with her. Her office staff is proficient and will get back to you asap. They’re kind and helpful. Tracy is a cut above the rest in her field.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Barefield. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt listened to, respected, and genuinely cared for. Dr. Barefield takes the time to explain everything in a way that’s easy to understand and never makes you feel rushed. Their compassion, professionalism, and attention to detail truly set them apart.

Thanks to their care, I feel more confident in my health and treatment plan. It’s rare to find a doctor who combines such personal touches with outstanding medical expertise. I’m incredibly grateful to have found them and would recommend Dr. Barefield to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and caring provider.

Dr. Tracy Barefield has been my doctor since December 26th, 2006. How do I know that’s the date this many years later? I saved a letter thanking her for saving my life. My iron was a 4.7, over many months and maybe more than a year I had a bleeding tumor. I knew I wasn’t feeling well but I had no idea I was this sick. If left untreated I would have probably bled to death in my sleep at age 35. She’s also helped me through strep throat, kidney stones, empty nesting, Covid, ear infections and today she helped me BIG again. She’s one of the good ones.

We changed to Dr. Barefield for her ability to refer as needed to Augusta. It was a great first visit and the office was very organized and were very efficient in wanting to get my medical records from my specialist I see. Very complete information obtained and she is a seasoned practitioner who I am confident in her managing my care. Thank you for taking us on.

Have had a GREAT experience here. I actually get healthcare here instead of spending my money to go in circles with doctors and insurance. Did not get the same attention and time from the Aiken primary care team. I feel good for the first time in years. Worth the drive! Please do yourself a favor and check them out!

My appointments with Dr Barefield are always informative and proactive. My goals for my health are prioritized and supported with guidance for what will work and what won’t. She provides facts with clear explanations. She doesn’t overprescribe medicine and works with you on developing plans for improved health in deficit areas so you can work yourself off them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
