About Ann C. Collins, MD

Your vitality and vibrant experience of life are my goals as your private family physician. As an MDVIP-affiliated primary care doctor, I have more time to develop close relationships with my patients. You will be nurtured and supported in a warm, welcoming, and unhurried environment that brings ease to your busy schedule. Understanding your priorities, your family, and community supports and stressors allows me to personalize your care. We will effectively partner to treat your current health challenges and work together to prevent new ones.

I am board certified in both Family Medicine and Integrative Holistic Medicine. My personal practice of yoga, mindfulness, and organic whole food nutrition teaching allows us to take your medical care outside of the exam room, providing you with tools and experiences of nourished living. My passion is to support your well-being using less medication when possible.

I offer expertise in pediatrics, elder-care, adult medicine, executive medicine, diabetes care and prevention, cardiovascular health, stress/mental health/addiction issues, and women’s health. We welcome you to our Nourish Wellness family, and look forward to being of service to you and your family.

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.
