My goal as your personal doctor is to partner with you to focus on longevity, stabilizing your existing medical problems and eliminating or controlling them with the use of diet, exercise and the appropriate medication and/or supplements.
Prevention is also a primary focus in my practice. The cardiovascular lab panels from Cleveland HeartLab that are part of the MDVIP Wellness Program help us to prevent the development of plaque, which can lead to coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular disease. We work to get ahead of other conditions that can affect us as we age, such as the development of cancer, dementia, fatigue and arthritic pain, by testing for common risk factors like vitamin D deficiency.
In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, you will be treated in a warm and welcoming atmosphere with flexible hours as late as 6:00 pm to allow appointments to be scheduled the same day or next day for a sick visit.
My internal medicine practice is located in Germantown, TN. We serve patients throughout the Memphis area including the surrounding suburbs of Germantown, Collierville, Arlington, Southaven, Olive Branch and Hernando as well as Desoto and Fayette counties, with patients as far away as Jonesboro, Arkansas, Cape Girardeau, Missouri and Jackson, TN. I admit all my patients to either Methodist Hospital-Germantown or Baptist Hospital-Memphis and follow them throughout the hospital course. I have never used hospitalists, since the knowledge that I have gained from my patient relationships in the office is priceless in managing their healthcare in the hospital. I occasionally make house calls when deemed necessary.
My hope is that a preventive approach will allow you to achieve a long and active life.
Dr. Posey has been a top notch doctor for our family. He is always very thorough and patient-oriented. He always seeks to find solutions even if it takes extra research. His willingness to be accessible to his patients is highly unique in today's world. He is much appreciated by his patients and considered to be a one of a kind doctor in Memphis.
Dr Posey and his staff are absolutely the very very best!! There is not one thing I can think of that I do not like about him or his staff. They are all excellent.
Dr. Posey is a very intelligent, kind, and down to earth person. He was recommended to me over 30 years ago. He is simply one of a kind in his knowledge and desire to prevent and treat one's health needs and concerns....no matter how big or small.

A recent relocation for work required that I find a new MDVIP physician. I was very pleased with my last relationship, and I was curious if I would find a doctor with the same passion for personalized care as my previous doctor. I can state that from my first visit, I have received an exceptional level of care from Michael Posey. I had a detailed and thorough intake interview, with directions… See more
We couldn't be happier with Dr Posey and his team! They are always there for us and give us the best care. We would and have told many people about him and his team. Best decision we ever made was to stay with him. He's wonderful!! Very very happy.
I didn't have a PCP for years, just a cardiologist. My husband had been a patient of Dr Posey's for years. Since I signed on with MDVIP, Dr Posey has made me comfortable taking about my symptoms, and has been more responsive than any Doctor of our generation. I feel like Dr Posey truly cares about me and my health.
I feel like the staff is always helpful an very friendly. I can not think of anything that would make me consider moving to a different practice.
When I first started with Dr. Posey, I was having problems with my blood pressure. Dr. Posey was very patient and took as much time as possible to discuss what we could do in terms of trying medications. He made sure to ask me if I was allergic to any type of medication that I was aware of. If any other issues would arise, he recommend other doctors or specialists if needed. When possibly, his… See more

I have been seeing Dr. Posey for about 20 years. Since he joined MDVIP he has had more time to discuss my health care needs. He has always referred me to the best specialist as required. I have always been very happy with his care. Recently my wife joined his practice on my advice.
