Meet Allison Steinmetz, MD


I am excited to be an MDVIP-affiliated physician. For me, the most fulfilling part of being a physician is the relationships I build with patients and their families through mutual trust, respect and collaboration. It is my mission to care for everyone as a whole individual and not just as a number, as I believe each of us is unique in our healthcare goals and needs.

I have been focusing my continuing education in recent years on longevity with a focus on preventive care for both adults and children. By providing healthcare that is a combination of traditional medicine and a focus on nutrition, physical activity, hormones, vitamins, supplements and spiritual growth, I believe I am able to help my patients pursue their health goals and experience their lives through a new approach to wellness.

It is important to me that I practice these approaches to health and wellness in my own life, as I start each day with a meditation and workout. I mix up my workouts to keep my mind and body sharp, including strength training, yoga, hiking, walking the dog and snowboarding. I find community to also be a large part of selfcare, and I love to be with my family, my friends and groups throughout my community.

In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I can help patients of the Lake Tahoe and Carson Valley, California, communities as they work to improve their health quality and longevity incorporating my whole approach to wellness. I can help my patients be in charge of their own health goals. Similar to concierge medicine practices, my MDVIP-affiliated practice offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. I am fortunate to be board certified in hospice and palliative care, which also allows me to participate in care at the end of life.

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.
