My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
I have had the privilege of being educated and trained in both rural and urban settings in the United States and the United Kingdom. That experience has fostered my understanding and appreciation for all people and cultures. In addition, both my training and practicing the art of medicine over the last fifteen years have honed my skills and afforded me the ability to practice in a cost‐effective and evidence‐based fashion. I believe my education, expertise in family medicine and fervor for chronic disease management will benefit all my patients. My MDVIP-affiliated practice will allow us the time to sit down together, identify, review, explore and discuss treatment options, all while working towards your health needs and goals.

I have had a difficult time the last year with what I have. Not to go into detail but I did know that all the doctors I saw were incorrect.

I have never been in this position. He was very comforting and asssured me… See more
Always pleased with the communication on any time I have reached out to him he has Always been prompt in getting back to me
Doctor Disalvo has always been extremely caring, kind, and helpful in every visit.
He takes time to explain everything fully so that I understand. He offers valuable recommendations on issues like cholesterol, blood pressure and healthy eating habits to name a few. Dr. Disalvo has proven to be concerned and thorough. I believe he exemplifies what MDVIP sets out to accomplish.
My Husband, Peter and I have been with Dr. DiSalvo prior to joining the MDVIP. (2 yrs. ago)
He has been a true friend and has always been there to help.
We both have been through serious medical conditions and he has guided us thru them.
We feel so blessed to have our Dr. DiSalvo as our Primary Care Doctor with MDVIP
My husband and I have been Dr. DiSalvo’s patients for many years. We have always trusted his advice, judgment, and diagnoses. He is genuinely caring and always available when we have questions or need him. We are grateful to have him as our family physician.
