About David A. Chavez, MD
I believe that the current state of medicine is a mess, and you, the patient, are feeling the brunt of it. That is why I affiliated with MDVIP: to deliver a more personalized model of medicine. My goal as your personal doctor is to partner with you to create an individualized plan that supports your long-term pursuit of improved health, not just symptoms or illness. I am here to help you expand your efforts toward wellness and longevity, with resources not available in most traditional practices and a model that allows us more time together.
I am a multigenerational Coloradoan and was the first in my family to go to college and medical school. I see patients today whom I saw in my first month of residency. I delivered over 1,000 babies in my first five years of practice. My career has spanned the cradle to the end of life. I continue to volunteer as a hospice director. More personally, I have realized my passion and aim to focus on building long-term relationships with my patients and helping them thrive.
I practice family medicine in Brighton, Colorado. I didn’t grow up with much money, and I understand the value of a dollar. A patient of mine once told me, “I have 99 problems until I don’t have my health and the I have only one.”
I lost my father-in-law to a preventable condition. Thanks to the advanced screenings and diagnostic tests offered in the annual MDVIP Wellness Program, we learned that my wife was silently carrying the same condition. I was grateful that we were able not only to identify it but also treat it earlier. In addition to the preventive tools and resources available to me through my affiliation with MDVIP, I offer hormone replacement therapy, as clinically appropriate.
In my view, the four horsemen of mortality still exist: Heart disease and diabetes, cancer, neurologic disorders and degenerative disease. The annual MDVIP Wellness Program I offer is comprised of 18+ advanced screenings and tests that can help identify certain risk markers and issues that can be treated earlier, prevented or even reversed.
I focus on prevention, which I believe can impact your vitality both today and in the last decade of life. If you are interested in my personalized practice or have questions, please feel free to reach out to me.

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.
