Dr Peter Ramirez is an exceptional doctor, who is always there when you need him. Every time I need to talk with him or get a prescription refilled, he is there. He will always call me back whenever he gets a free moment from his tight schedule and give me his undivided attention. I have been a patient with Dr. Ramirez for the past 35 years.

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
The MDVIP practice model gives me more time to investigate and the tools to screen for and help uncover many silent illnesses, that if found early, can be dealt with effectively and truly make a difference. The comprehensive, annual MDVIP Wellness Program includes advanced screenings focused on key areas, such as heart health, bone health, sleep, stress, nutrition and respiratory issues. As my patients' personal doctor, I encourage very open and casual relationships and am available 24 hours a day by cell phone for urgent needs. My patients also have their own website to communicate with me securely and confidentially by email, and I can send copies of test results and reports. This type of relationship with attention to detail, open communication, understanding and continuity is what I aim to deliver to each patient in my primary care practice on a daily basis. I also offer conveniences, like same- or next-day appointments that start on time, which may be found in concierge medicine practices.
My practice is located in Glen Burnie, Maryland and serves patients from the entire Baltimore-Annapolis corridor and surrounding areas, including Severna Park and Millersville. I am affiliated with the Baltimore Washington Medical Center, which is part of the University of Maryland Medical System. My specialized interests include adult medicine, preventive medicine and wellness, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, hypertension and internal medicine. If you would like to learn more about my personalized healthcare practice and the MDVIP Wellness Program, please make a complimentary appointment.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Ramirez
My internist is one of the most organized, caring, and knowledgeable physicians that I have known during my own 40+ year medical career. He is a bit of a serious fellow at times that he undoubtedly inherited from his father, who I worked with many times as I started my medical career in 1983. I nicknamed his father "Smiley" as it was always a delight to drag a smile or chuckle from… See more
Dr. Ramirez has seen me through 1 side tumor surgery and 3 brain tumor surgeries in the 2-3 years I’ve been seeing him. After my side tumor surgery the surgeon did not give me enough pills to get through the weekend for pain. My mom called Dr. Ramirez on a Saturday and he fought my insurance to give me more pills. I felt horrible for taking time out of his weekend to help me get meds but I was… See more
I was a patient of Dr. Peter Ramirez before MDVIP and since now that he is an affiliate of MDVIP.... I think Dr. Ramirez is the BEST ! , he listens to any issue I have and he explains any and all tests that have to get or have done. He goes above and beyond in helping me figure out what is best for me when it comes to vaccinations since I have an autoimmune condition . I never have to… See more
Above and beyond is always what we get whether it is getting appointments lined up for specialist, explaining blood work test and medicine that we are
taking, Dr Ramirez and his staff go the extra mile. My husband has alot of health issues and Dr Ramirez is so patient and always there when needed .The last hospital visit was bad and my daughter was so distraught she called him and he… See more
Dr. Peter Ramirez has guided me well over the years with my personal health issues. Recently I had an issue with my heart and called him on his cell phone. He asked if I could come right away. He performed tests in his office and I was home within an hour. Previous to my going to see him,my daughter told me to go to the emergency room and not the doctor. Her husband works in the field and… See more
Dr. Ramirez is the best doctor I've ever seen. He is caring, yet professional; he is careful,. I enjoy his strategy of trying the least invasive treatment first (e.g., recommend dietary and lifestyle changes before prescribing medications). He explains very well the impact of your conditions. His greatest strength as a doctor, I think, is that he truly listens to what you're… See more
What makes a person "special" lies often in the "valleys" of life rather than the mountaintop experiences. Dr Peter Ramirez is such a person...such a doctor. It's difficult to cite one special story because he affords us his diagnostic talents, insight, exceptional medical skills and his "heart" on a routine basis every time we interact. It's a… See more
As an elderly woman of 76, Dr. Peter Ramirez always treats me with respect for my thoughts regarding my health. If he gives me a diagnosis and prescribes a certain medicine or test, he is willing to listen to my concerns and questions. The answers aren't always what I hope, but he still gives me time to decide. This give me a feeling of autonomy over my own life with Dr. Ramirez as a… See more
I was having chest pains very late on a Sunday night. Called Dr. Ramirez and he immediately answered the phone, told me what additional medication to take and the pains were reduced. This represents only one instance but he is always available and I am still around today as a result of his excellent care.
