Jonathan Fish, MD

I was bitten by the medical bug when I was a young kid. My grandfather was a family physician – the old-school kind with a little black bag. He had an office in his basement which, it seemed to me at the time, was never closed. I saw the relationships that he had with his patients and the care they received. That has always been what I have wanted for my patients, a doctor who is their unyielding partner in wellness.

As an internal medicine physician practicing in Howard County, Maryland for over 22 years, I have learned the importance of highly personalized care and the value of wellness and prevention. My MDVIP-affiliated practice will provide a framework for next level prevention and wellness through the Annual Wellness Program. This program focuses on preventing illness and detecting disease states in their early stages. My practice will also have far fewer patients and will allow me to spend significantly more time with each one. This is essential so that I can really become close with each patient in order to individualize their care.

As a board-certified internist, I bring extensive knowledge, training and experience to my new practice. I am especially interested in cardio prevention, sleep and the value of mindfulness in improving health outcomes. I was educated at Harvard University and Jefferson Medical College, and trained at the University of Maryland Medical System. I am affiliated with Howard County General Hospital. When I’m not with patients I’m spending time with my family, at the beach, or suffering in front of the TV watching a Philadelphia sports team.
