What our members are saying

My wife and I were very fortunate to find Dr. Berger in 1992 when we moved back to the Bethesda,MD area from Florida . We also count ourselves lucky to have been able to follow him to the MDVIP practice, since we value him so much, as our Primary Care Physician. Dr. Berger is a very compassionate, intelligent and caring professional. Certainly, he is one of the most competent Primary Care…

We've been patients of Dr Berger since moving to the area in 1992, long before he became affiliated with MDVIP. We were glad that we could afford the change to MDVIP, because we did not want to leave him, his practice! He's terrific. He's smart and thoughtful; easy to talk to. He asks insightful questions that focus on me as a person as well as the medical issue. He's…

Dr. Berger is an extremely caring and concerned physician. He has not only helped me, but also my husband. He is always there when we need him and he goes above and beyond in placing phone calls and making visits to the hospital when we are experiencing problems. I believe that he really cares about me and wants the best for my health in the future. I am trying to follow his advice to keep…

Brent Berger, M.D. is thorough, patient, and has always been incredibly responsive to my needs, questions and concerns. His return to the patient is faster than the oft quoted: faster than a speeding bullet. He's conservative in his approach to prescriptions for me, but upon request he comes around to the approach: O.K. if you need more of this low dosage, then just, as you need, take more…

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.
