New Braunfels Welcomes MDVIP-Affiliated Practice Led by Dr. Jason Nelson
NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas – November 20, 2024 – MDVIP has partnered with longtime family medicine physician Jason Nelson, MD, on the opening of a new MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice located at 1441 Whispering Woods Trail in New Braunfels. Joining MDVIP allows Dr. Nelson to prioritize what he believes matters most in his practice: spending quality time with his patients.
Dr. Nelson has proudly served families in the community for more than 25 years. His MDVIP practice offers a different approach to care with a focus on enhancing quality of life and supporting patients of all ages in their pursuit of prevention and wellness in addition to traditional primary care. His particular interests include:
• Caring for pediatric and general medicine patients
• Promoting cardiovascular health, fitness, and longevity
• Treating metabolic syndrome and diabetes
• Focusing on nutrition, weight management, and weight loss
• Addressing hormonal health and sleep quality
“My faith has always shaped every aspect of my life, and practicing medicine in this community is an honor and expression of empathy, compassion, and love for the individuals I care for,” said Dr. Nelson, who is affiliated with CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital and Resolute Baptist Hospital. “The MDVIP model enables me to offer patients a comprehensive and integrated approach to healthcare while delving into the possible root causes of health issues rather than solely treating their symptoms.”
Here’s what patients can expect from joining Dr. Nelson’s practice:
- Annual Wellness Program: Comprehensive yearly health assessment comprised of advanced screenings and diagnostic tests that provide a more complete view of their overall health.
- Personalized Action Plans: Collaboration with Dr. Nelson to establish health goals and create customized plans that help address specific concerns and can improve overall health.
- Increased Availability: Ability to schedule same-day or next-day appointments with Dr. Nelson and also reach him outside regular office hours for immediate health needs or emergencies.
Dr. Nelson added, “Whether it’s running a Turkey Trot, hiking the Pacific Coast Trail, or keeping up with their grandchildren, I want to work alongside my patients and support them in achieving their long and short-term goals.”
