About Philip Roth Jr., MD
My goal is to give my patients the best care possible, the care they deserve. I treat my patients as though they are family members.

What our members are saying
I have been a patient of I have been a patient of Dr Roth for many years. I have been very pleased with his services. He has been very straight forward with me and spent all the time I needed to fully discuss my blood work results and the results of his personal examination of me. He recommended other surgical physicians, when necessary. I am approaching 89 years old and have fully enjoyed my…

I have been a patient here for over 25 years. I am so grateful for this practice. The staff are professional and competent. I always know that they are just a call away and will take care of my medical needs.
I first met Dr. Roth during his residency. All the doctors did rotations through each teaching department. I was working for the Department of Dermatology when he did his rotation. I…

Dr. Roth has been extremely good to me and my family. He provides excellent health care. My ex-wife didn’t have a primary care physician. She contracted a virus and started suffering from extreme headaches, sensitivity to light, and vomiting. I took her to the Emergency Department and they sent her home with pain medication. For two days she laid in bed taking the pain meds and vomiting into a…

Dr Roth has kept me healthy for many years. He has helped me through many surgeries. He is the most caring doctor I have ever had. When my companion was dying with cancer and was under the care of the cancer doctor, Dr Roth was at the hospital at 6am every morning checking on him. I vote him Dr of the year.

Dr. Roth has been my primary doctor for at least 30 years. I stayed with him because he is an exceptional doctor. His knowledge, concern, caring and patience is outstanding. Hopefully, I will be long gone before he decides to retire because I could never find another doctor of his caliber.

I didn’t meet the doctor at all but I was shocked at how rude the office staff were. I will be sticking with my doctor in TN, especially for the membership price just to avoid issues like this.

I have been a patient of Dr Roth forever, it seems, certainly over 30 years. I have always found him to be genuinely concerned about my issues and my family. His renown as an exceptional GP caused his patient base to grow early on. Since he joined MDVIP, the number of patients he sees has been limited, allowing him to spend more time with each patient. Even after hours, he never fails to return my calls and take car of my needs. When I have been hospitalized, I have waken up daily to find him standing there checking on my progress before the sun was even up. In many instances, he became my advocate before the hospital staff, assuring that I received the care and treatment I needed, based on his long-term knowledge of my medical issues. I am convinced that, if not for Dr Roth (and my wife, of course), I would no longer be among the living.

The best characteristic of Dr. Roth, his staff and his office itself is the relaxed, welcoming and attentive environment. I do not like doctor visits, never have, am scared of needles and a reluctant patient. But with Dr. Roth, I enter a "positive judgment zone..." a good one that says and shows IT IS OK.

Dr Roth is my favorite doctor of all those I've seen over the years. He takes the time to listen. I'm a bit stubborn on some medical treatments, in particular prescriptions that are taken orally and those that are injected. He understands my concerns and addresses those. He is very easy to talk to and a very caring doctor. My husband, who was not a fan of seeking out doctors, even didn't mind going to Dr Roth!

Dr. Roth is the reason I am an MDVIP patient. I have been seeing him for almost 34 years and will try to continue to do so as long as he is in practice. He listens, communicates and thoroughly explains the treatment options to me. He has always been a very caring doctor and keeps abreast of new procedures and treatments available.

Dr. Roth and his staff are considerate and caring. They treat all visits like you are the most important patient, which makes you feel like all of their experience and knowledge are focused on you.
Personally I wouldn’t want any other primary care physician treating me.

Dr. Roth has been my doctor for over 25 years. Both him and his staff are the most caring and responsive group of medical professional I have ever dealt with. They also take care of my wife and two children with a focus on not just current health but monitoring for potential problems down the road. They are truly the best!!!

Dr. Roth and his staff are professional, knowledgeable, caring and efficient. Yet, if you need the time, they take the time for you. Appointments are made so that there is no waiting. He is the best diagnostician. It tells you everything when I am willing to pay MDVIP for his service. The care he provides for my health is worth every penny.

In June my husband became very sick and was hospitalized until his death from cancer in August 2018. Dr Roth admitted him to the hospital but due to his sickness was not his primary doctor, but he visited him every morning. He may have missed a few days but you could almost set your clock on his arrival time of 6:00am. You could tell he had the utmost concern for his patient and my husband.

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.
