About A. Roland Spedale Jr., MD, FACP

My objective has always been to focus on providing personal attention for my patient's individual healthcare and well-being. I have learned over the last 15 plus years that really listening to my patients gives me the opportunity to provide ideal care. Letting the patient speak is fast disappearing from medical practice that has become cluttered with institutions, systems, and rules that distract from patient care.

As an MDVIP-affiliated physician, I have the time and resources that allow me to formulate a wellness plan that will help you achieve your health goals. Whether you are dealing with acute or chronic conditions, we will carefully and proactively individualize your treatment providing clear explanation of your options.

In my practice, we create a stronger doctor-patient relationship which enhances your personalized medical care and allows you to achieve optimal health. We will compassionately partner together to maximize wellness and experience an improved quality of life. My interests include patient education, healthy nutrition and exercise, as well as risk assessments/treatments for diabetes, coronary disease and stroke prevention.

What our members are saying

Our doctor, Anthony Spedale, looks after me and my husband better than we do! He is proactive and deeply interested in our health even though we are "deemed too old to waste time on". He has found so many problems with our health that we would have let go with disastrous results. My husband's brain hematoma for one.
We have never needed him when we had to wait for an…

Dr Spedale has been our GP for several years now. As previous MDVIP members in another state with a wonderful doctor, Charles Halfpenny in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, we were fortunate to find an MDVIP doctor in our chosen area through a friends' recommendation. Dr Spedale is always the professional going above and beyond traditional patient care. If he feels you need referred to a specialist, he…

I have been very happy with the medical service I have received from Dr. Spedale over the years. I have been seeing him for my medical needs before he was associated with MDVIP.. I really enjoy that he is working with MDVIP because of the additional time he is able to spend with me during my appointments.
I will be seeing him in March for my annual physical blood work, physical workup and…

in December I died 3 times. So you know you can hear what people are saying when your in third person and out of it. It was reassuring to me that I saw and heard my concierge doctor standing at the foot of my gurney talking with my two friends. I heard every word they said. My BFF told him if I was a dog she would put me down. Sweet. He gave them good advise and told them to leave. Cause if I…

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.
