Meet Ron Eaker, MD, FACOG, ABOM


Times are always changing, but through all phases of life, your health is of utmost importance.  

You deserve personal, compassionate care now more than ever, and I have built a career based on the knowledge that wellness is a balance of mind, body and spirit. The VIP in my MDVIP-affiliated practice embodies this, as for me it represents Value In Prevention as well as Vitally Important Patients. I will work with you as a partner in your wellness, helping address the distinct needs of women in a patient-centered atmosphere. With 30 years of experience as a physician and two board certifications, I am uniquely positioned to walk with you on your journey towards achieving a comprehensive, happy, long, health span. 

I have specialized in women’s healthcare for over 30 years in the Augusta and Aiken areas and was an early advocate of telemedicine in the region. The author of two books, A Woman’s Guide to Hormone Health and Healthy Habits for a Fit Family, my approach to women’s health focuses on wellness, weight management, hormone issues, menopause, holistic/integrative care and fitness. As a board-certified Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, extensive training has equipped me to deliver a spectrum of prevention services including weight loss, nutrition, immune enhancement, sexual health, mood and emotional issues and postmenopausal wellness. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments that start on time.

I practice what I preach and have completed over 100 marathons/half marathons and encourage my patients to adopt a healthy lifestyle by doing what they enjoy. I understand that personal care means listening to your needs, taking time to address those concerns and providing individualized solutions. In the midst of a changing healthcare environment, one thing always remains: you deserve personalized care where I can be your advocate - knowing you, your family and your needs and helping you find your individual path to wellness.

Frequently Asked Questions

The MDVIP Women’s Health Program can enhance primary care medicine, especially for women. The extensive diagnostics performed in the Women’s Health Program cover important primary care areas, including cardiovascular health, stroke, diabetes, hearing, sleep, mobility, fitness and emotional well-being. Couple that with the annual women’s health screenings for gynecology, bone health and hormone testing – and patients can get the best of both worlds in one office. 

Whether you are in your thirties or seventies, caring for your health can be nuanced and sometimes complex. At any age, you should be making a concerted effort toward prevention and wellness, and it’s never too late to start. Of course, as you age, your specific health needs change. In your twenties and thirties, you are likely focused on optimal reproductive health and wellness. In your forties and fifties, you’ll want to look at hormones, bone health and pre- and perimenopause. In your sixties and beyond, you’ll want to keep track of urinary tract infections, bone density and cardiovascular issues. But at every stage of life, it’s important to align your female-specific healthcare with your primary care, because there are many areas where the two intersect and can affect the quality of your life.

The MDVIP Women’s Health Program is only for women and focuses on the unique health needs of women. Physicians offering the women’s program are typically gynecologists and offer gender-specific testing, including hormone and bone-health screening as well as pre- and perimenopause services. Patients in both styles of practices receive preventive screenings and tests from the MDVIP Wellness Program, but the specific tests and screenings may be different.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

Testimonials from patients of Ron Eaker, MD, FACOG, ABOM

Through the seasons

from Rebeccah in GA • February 11, 2024
After delivering my daughter in 1991, Dr. Eaker actually thanked us for letting him be a part of the delivery, and has been caring for me and many family members ever since. In 2023, as my Mom's physician, he compassionately cared for her in her final illness. 3 generations of our family have been blessed to have him as our doctor; I am very grateful the personalized care he consistently Read more...

The Best

from Caroline in GA • February 10, 2024
Image provided by: Caroline
Dr. Eaker is the best doctor. I would never have done MDVIP if not for him. Even though he was an obstetrician before this, and he delivered my two babies, I had the confidence in his smarts that he could be my primary doctor. He’s a marathon runner and I’m a triathlete, so he gets me. When I got shingles, I guessed, didn’t know, he snapped into action, saw me the day I called, and had me on Read more...

First Time Having a Doctor That Really Seems to Care & Listen

from lorraine in GA • February 10, 2024
At nearly 60, I've had my share of various doctors. A friend suggested Dr. Eaker to me as we were both going through some similar issues post-menopause. Dr. Eaker has a calming way about him and sits and listens without making you feel like he is in a hurry. He is the first doctor I've had that I feel like I could ask ANY question and he'll address it. He is available 100% of Read more...

Dr. Ron Eaker

from Shanna in SC • February 10, 2024
I am so happy to have Dr. Eaker as my Primary doctor again. He is very patient and kind, listens to all of my concerns, and provides the best counsel. Through his weight loss program, I have been able to lose 25 pounds so far, hopefully with more to come. Because of the bloodwork and screenings that he does, he has probably saved my life! I appreciate him and his practice and would recommend him Read more...
