Daniel B. Vance, MD, FACP

My wife and I both have parents who are doctors. Our parents always encouraged an active lifestyle, participation in sports and to become doctors ourselves. My father read Dr. Ken Cooper’s book “Aerobics” in 1968, an Air Force doctor who pioneered the benefits of aerobic exercise. Soon the entire family was up before dawn jogging a mile before breakfast every day! Health and fitness have been important to me ever since. However, middle age caught up with me. I could blame it on work and family obligations, leaving little time for health, but that would be an excuse. By the time I was 50 years old I could not enjoy life as much as I wished due to being overweight, out of shape and not getting enough sleep. My wife and I read an inspiring book about a retired lawyer and his internist who developed a program to restore his vitality through improved diet, exercise, sleep and other aspects of that kind of lifestyle. I was inspired by his doctor’s partnership with his patient and wanted to do the same with my patients. There never seemed to be enough time to help my patients reach their healthcare goals. I wanted to do a better job improving their health and quality of life, which is my reason for affiliating with MDVIP. 

I am affiliated with Tennova Healthcare. As your private doctor who takes time to know you and your health, it is important for me to know if you are hospitalized so I can assist with your care when appropriate and be there for you when needed. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments that start on time. My MDVIP-affiliated, primary care practice currently serves Cleveland, Tennessee and all surrounding areas.
