My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

MDVIP has enabled me to practice medicine in the manner patients deserve. The time I have available allows me to form very close bonds with my patients to help to facilitate a level of trust and comfort that is difficult to find in a traditional practice. As a cholesterol and blood pressure specialist, I tend to take a very aggressive preventive approach to medicine, which I believe will be extremely beneficial decades down the road. My patients appreciate my emphasis on wellness and my dedication to remaining on top of current medical information. The ability to positively impact so many lives is such a privilege; I really can't wait to get to work every day!

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Malinow

from Sylvia in MD January 25, 2024 for Louis B. Malinow, MD

I had a previous doctor before I saw Dr Lou Malinow and when I went to see her she prescribed a med and I was getting sicker, fainting and and swelling up with fluid. I called and they said they couldn't see me. My daughter was working with Dr at that time and they got me in the office immediately. Make a long story short, I was hospitalized for 10 days. Dr Lou said my organs were… See more

from Marsha in MD January 22, 2024 for Louis B. Malinow, MD

I have known Lou since he was very young. We moved into his neighborhood/same street way back in the 70’s. Then the Malinow’s moved out of the neighborhood and next thing I knew I became a patient along with my mother about 2002-first as my PCP and then my MDVIP. He was recommended by a medical technician as being a great diagnostician. He IS that and more! He is compassionate, caring,… See more

from Jeff in MD November 5, 2021 for Louis B. Malinow, MD

Dr Malinow is a great doctor! He’s the best I’ve ever had. What makes him different than all the others is his attention to detail and his clear communication with patients. He is very thorough and gets to the bottom of every ailment never leaving a stone unturned. He pays attention to the whole body health and not just specific ailments when it comes to treatment. Additionally, he… See more

from Wilbur in MD November 5, 2021 for Louis B. Malinow, MD

Lou Malinow is the best doctor I have ever dealt with. Not only is he my doctor but I consider him my friend. One quick story please.
I see Lou on a regular basis. At least 4 times a year. Lou knows my medical history better than anyone. When Lou saw my PSA numbers, he wanted further testing done even though the numbers were still quite low. However, the number did go up percentage… See more

from Hershel in MD December 24, 2020 for Louis B. Malinow, MD

A while ago (pre-covid) i was on vacation in California with my wife and i had a cold and a bad cough. I called Dr Lou in the morning on the weekend and he texted back right away that the phone service is not so good at the beach where he was for the weekend so he contacted me from a different phone to get me a prescription. I had forgotten about the few hour time difference and apologized but… See more

from Rita in MD November 27, 2020 for Louis B. Malinow, MD

My husband battled complication after complication such as diabetes, heart, kidney & eventually lung cancer. Dr. Lou referred him to wonderful specialists, as well as keeping up-to-date on his numerous medications. Dr. Lou also made sure to examine him after every discharge from the hospital. His sickness was so overwhelming. Without Dr. Lou, we wouldn’t have known… See more

I was getting sicker and sicker and my daughter was working for Dr Lou at this time and she got me in his office.… See more

Supplementing with fish oil is now linked with lowering your risk of cardiac death, according to a recent meta-analysis published in the Journal of Clinical Lipidology. It’s only a moderate eight percent reduction, but I’ll take it.

You May Need More than Just a Cholesterol Test to Determine Your Risk for Heart Disease
