I was a patient with Dr. Thal before she became an MDVIP Dr. I knew from the quality of care I had received from her through the years that I would definitely want to continue under her dedicated guidance. Her care and annual physical exams are thorough and comprehensive. Being part of MDVIP has made her more accessible. Dr. Thal was on the job during my husband, David's, sudden pancreatic cancer…

Fortunately I don't have a health scare story, but 'this isn't my first rodeo' and I can say with all sincerity that you'll not find a more caring,
attentive, professional physician. In addition, her staff is first class; they make you feel like family! My husband and I are grateful to have
become part of her membership. Keep up the good work!

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.
