About James M. Robinson, MD
My goal as your primary care physician is to provide highly personalized care and attention with an emphasis on prevention and wellness. My job is to help keep you well, but also to be here for you when you are sick. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, you will be treated in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I try to address each patient's individual needs with particular attention to their specific goals. You will benefit from my 20+ years of internal medicine experience. Some of my professional interests and areas of focus include cardiovascular health, diabetes prevention and management, weight loss and maintenance and aging in the best possible way. My staff and I want to coordinate your care with specialists and the follow-up that requires.
As one of the few internal medicine doctors in St. Tammany Parish offering this personalized healthcare approach, I provide a level of care that can help make a healthy future your reality.
My primary care practice is located in Covington, Louisiana, and currently serves all of St. Tammany Parish, Tangipahoa Parish and surrounding parishes. We focus on preventive care and corporate wellness in addition to all aspects of primary care. I am affiliated with St. Tammany Parish/Ochsner Hospital.

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.
