I have known Dr. Sharon Scanlon as my doctor for many years. Her wellness philosophy has evolved with her practice. I first learned about the Mediterranean diet from her years ago, before everyone was talking about it. She is always helping me by looking ahead with life changes coming up. A salute to Dr. Scanlon!

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Scanlon
Our family loves Doctor Scanlon. Her positive outlook on our lives and the input that she provides at every opportunity have made staying well much easier. We would not be as healthy as we are without her guidance, so if Doctor Scanlon suggests that we do something, we do it!! She makes us feel as though we are the most important people in the world, actually like VIPs, and thus her being a… See more
Dr. Sharon Scanlon has been my doctor for 30 years. Throughout all that time she has consistently been, thorough, thoughtful, knowledgeable, helpful, warm, approachable and a good listener. She knows me and my body's quirks and issues. I can't -- and I don't want to -- imagine having another doctor.
Even though my 98 year old mom is in an Assisted Living facility, Dr. Scanlon has always made time to visit her when the need arose. We never had to beg. Dr. Scanlon would visit my mom for any need or problem, at any time. Dr. Sharon Scanlon is fantastic and is absolutely THE BEST.

She even wrote a prescription for my friends son who has since died of cancer.. Hopkins messed up the presc & we needed a new one ASAP. Dr Scanlon stepped in to help. She is great

I feel that Dr. Scanlon is extremely kind, compassionate, understanding and has a great bedside manner. She always knows the right things to say to makes me feel calmer when I am nervous. The fact that she truly knows me and my history makes for a great patient/doctor relationship.
I would recommend her to everyone!
I joined MDVIP with some skepticism over concierge medicine, but I did not want to lose access to Dr. Sharon Scanlon, my long-time physician. I am happy to say that the care and special attention that I receive now is a great improvement over the past. The MDVIP experience has exceeded my expectations. Being able to send an email to your physician about a concern -- and to get a response… See more
