That’s what I think of when I think of Dr. Velazquez. The reason why is because he truly did save my life many years ago. I was in my early thirties, and he sent me to get a scan because I had a persistent hernia. Well, the radiologist luckily found a small spot on one of my kidneys, which ended up being cancerous. Dr. Velazquez quickly entered quarterback mode and guided me through selecting… See more

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, the main building block is the personalized approach I take with each individual during their wellness exam. In order to prevent disease, I have to care for the patient as a whole, and not just review the laboratory results. Special areas of interest to me are high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol management. As a native of Puerto Rico, I am fluent in Spanish.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Velazquez
I joined MDVIP less than a year ago at the recommendation of a friend. The Conceierge Doctor experience is new for me but I gladly share that my only regret is not joining and meeting Dr. Francisco Velazquez sooner. Francisco's experience, passionate care, and personal attention is exceptional.
I have been very fortunate to have meet Dr. V many years ago. The bond that we have forged in my mind is beyond just a patient /doctor level ..its is a trusting collaborative friendship with purpose. How one might ask!. It is based on Dr V's methods of honesty and bed side manner. He creates the environment where we both can be honest with one another. I followed Dr Velazquez to MDVIP because… See more
I can't say enough good things about Dr. Francisco Velasquez, helpful, informative and goes the extra mile to help you. Even if your a pain like me. I appreciate his attention & geniene bedside manners to my questions & concerns. Thank you, for your kindness.
When I started going to Dr. Velazquez, I was on a plethora of medications. Everything from stomach, anxiety medication; muscle relaxers. You name it. He was able to get me on medications that work for me and into a routine to where I don’t have to take any medication unless absolutely necessary.
Best doctor ever. He really cares!
Dr. Velazquez is SIMPLY THE BEST. I have found him to be ALWAYS up- to-the-minute in his medical skill and knowledge, available at a moment's notice, deeply caring and personal in his treatment. I admire and trust Dr. Velazquez, and I feel so fortunate to have him as my doctor.
Thanks for your excellent service and for helping me achieve and maintain good health over the past few years. I have been very pleased and impressed with the MD VIP approach to practicing medicine and look forward to many more years of continued partnership in health.
My story is nothing specific but just to say that Dr. Velazquez is truly the best doctor ever......no exaggeration. He's personable and professional as well as incredibly intelligent and intuitive. He listens and respects what I know about my body and will answer all sorts of questions and concerns and I feel he's the most confident physician I've ever had.......and besides… See more
A wonderful caring doctor. Always takes the time to discuss issues. I traveled abroad last year and he looked up what vaccines I needed.
After having a lymph node swell on my neck, Dr Velasquez didn't want to delay to find out whether there was a significant issue, or not. Dr intervened to set up a next day appointment with a talented but "hard to get an appointment with" specialist for testing and confirmation that I did have throat cancer. The quick response was very nice, to start the addressing the issue and… See more
