About Shelli Ridge, DO
My approach to wellness is to nourish mind, body and soul. Mind and soul come first, because without this, you may not be motivated to take care of your body. Having a healthy relationship with yourself is primary, then healthy relationships with friends and family come naturally. I am a big proponent of healthy eating in the form of a whole-foods diet, along with a regular exercise routine to keep your body strong and to help you stay focused in life.
If you are looking for a primary care physician who understands the importance of a close doctor-patient relationship, then you found her. As a family physician, I want to know my patients personally, not just medically. We can work together to create personalized health goals for you, and I can help guide you to achieving them. I see patients of all ages and multiple generations of the same family. It gives me more insight into who you are and allows me to help give you more personalized care. My MDVIP-affiliated practice specializes in women’s health, chronic disease management, osteopathic manipulation, pediatrics and immunizations. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments.
I’ve been in the Dayton/Cincinnati area for the past six years. Moving to West Chester is ideal, and I am thrilled to be serving my neighbors from northern Cincinnati to southern Dayton areas. I am affiliated with Kettering Health Network and Premier Health.

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.
