About David J. Hobbs, MD

Being an MDVIP physician helps me fulfill my long-term goal: to give individualized and in-depth care to my family of patients. To me, my patients are my family. Concentrating on a fewer number of patients allows me - and them - the time for examination, dialogue and healthcare planning in a more relaxed environment. I also am delighted to provide an in-place network of highly ranked specialty centers.

What our members are saying

Dr Hobbs is what I’d call an “old-school” doctor: the kind that takes time to listen to you, and respond with compassion. He genuinely cares about your health and well-being, and makes recommendations that are based on his years of experience. He is always available, knows just what questions to ask, and he makes you feel safe when you are stressed about something medical. He is beloved by every…

I have been seeing Dr. Hobbs for the last several years, and he has always been available. By best experience was when he cared for me when I was in the hospital after a fall.

I was in the emergency room for what might have been a heart attack. It wasn’t. Dr Hobbs left his family Father’s Day celebration, came to my bedside, borrowed a stethoscope, and supervised my care. What more could a doctor do? I don’t think he ever returned the stethoscope.

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.
