Meet Theodore C.M. Li, MD


"Listen to your patients; they’re telling you the diagnosis.” I heard this advice as a student, and it has been the cornerstone of my approach to medicine. The corollary is that health care (what to test and how to treat) must be tailored to the individual. These are exciting times in the medical world with significant advances every day, but it all has to be reconciled with the needs and circumstances of each individual.

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

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.

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.

Something valuable that I've learned from Dr. Li is that an incremental approach in life is often best.

from Sophia in VA • March 2, 2018
Something valuable that I've learned from Dr. Li is that an incremental approach in life is often best. He applies that approach when it comes to diagnosing and treating health situations.

from Aileen in DC • February 7, 2014
My doctor and his staff are warm and responsive. My doctor always listens intently when I speak and then responds in a positive and helpful way. I feel he cares for the whole patient, not just the specific problem that you may have. I also feel he will be available if I need him which gives a wonderful sense of security.

Thank you, Dr Li, for your attentive, professional dependable care.

from Connie in DC • March 10, 2016
Dr Li, consistent with his thoughtful and thorough approach, listened to my frustration with a chronic sinus condition & recommended a CT scan. The result proved to be life changing, perhaps even life saving as a meningioma was discovered on the scan. Dr Li recommended an MRI which confirmed the finding & immediately sent me to 2 excellent neurosurgeons for consultation.
