About C. Michael Collins, Jr., MD
As a board-certified internal medicine physician and native of Florence, South Carolina, I am excited to have the opportunity to care for patients in my hometown. Since graduating from MUSC College of Medicine and completing training at VCU Health in Richmond, Virginia, I have had nearly 10 years of experience treating patients in South Carolina. I draw upon my knowledge and skills in an outpatient setting to help my patients as they work to be healthier. I also see my patients in the hospital at both McLeod Regional Medical Center and MUSC Health Florence Medical Center.
Similar to concierge medicine practices, I offer same- or next-day appointments with minimal wait time. I strive to provide more personalized primary care to my patients, including reviewing more complex chronic medical conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes and kidney and lung disease. I look forward to fostering lifelong relationships with my patients and seeing them thrive as they pursue a healthier life. I am proud to be a part of the practice at Internal Medicine Specialists of Florence.

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.
