My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

I have always felt the most important aspect of my job is to listen. Taking the time to hear what the person in front of me is saying does not occur passively, but is an active process, key to learning the story of your life. Now within the framework of MDVIP I will be finding ways for you, as a patient, to become a healthy person. Together we will be creative to set new goals and forge a lifestyle that leads to wellness. If you find yourself ill, my smaller practice size allows me the time and flexibility to address health problems quickly and thoroughly.

My primary care practice has two locations in Detroit and West Bloomfield, Michigan, and serves patients from Franklin, Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills, West Bloomfield and surrounding towns.

TWO OFFICE LOCATIONS:
•    5807 West Maple Road, Suite 171 West Bloomfield, MI 48322
•    1274 Library St. Suite 302 Detroit, MI 48226

Twenty Five Years
from lacie in MI March 11, 2020 for Brian J. Kolender, MD

Dr. Kolender has been my doctor for almost twenty years. Initially I thought he was too young he had just started his practice. He grew a beard which aged him
a little but wasn't complimentary, thankfully he got over that. Now he's a vegan, no meat, no eat!! Setting aside the laugh, I appreciate his enthusiasm to integrate traditional medicine with natural solutions which is… See more

There is sometimes in your life when you say yes and it has a great impact for the rest your life. One day I called in for an appointment with my primary internist, he was booked but he brought on another doctor, Dr. Brian Kolender who had openings.

I have only begun with Dr. Kolender
from Andrew in MI March 1, 2018 for Brian J. Kolender, MD

I have only begun with Dr. Kolender but I hate going to the Doctor. Despise needles. Yep, I'm one of those but for some reason, the personal service outweighed the fear and I got through it like a champ. I feel empowered and dare I say this, look forward to the next time I will head into the office. Thank you for taking a normally awful experience and making it something I enjoyed.… See more

from Susan in MI February 27, 2018 for Brian J. Kolender, MD

Dr. Kolender has kept an eye on both my husband and me for quite some time now. We followed him from his stress filled practice to MDVIP.

Once he scheduled an appointment for me to see a surgeon when I had a cancer scare. We both have… See more
