About David A. LeVine, MD, CMD
When I first started my medical practice over 30 years ago, my goal was to create a warm and welcoming environment in which my patients would feel most comfortable. I hoped to emulate the family physician of old, where patients were treated like family and felt free to share their joys as well as their worries and concerns. My MDVIP-affiliated practice allows me to provide this type of medical care, providing me the time to get to know my patients better and, therefore, allowing me to care for each patient according to his or her individual needs. I can focus on wellness and prevention rather than wait to treat disease after it has occurred. It is important that my patients leave my office with all of their questions answered and concerns addressed. I will always do my best to honor and respect my patient's wishes, as I see myself as a partner in my patients’ health care. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments that start on time.
I was born and raised in St. Petersburg, Florida and returned to the area in 1986 to start my medical practice in the same community as my father and two brothers who were also physicians. Since then, I have been actively involved with our local medical and Jewish communities. I am part of several university sponsored medical residency training programs that require me to keep current with ever-changing recommendations and advancements in medicine. I frequently lecture to physicians and community members on various topics, especially those pertaining to medicine and geriatrics. As a board-certified family doctor and geriatrician, I am acutely aware of the many unique challenges that can occur as people age. I have a special interest in and experience with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. My experience as the medical director of long-term care facilities has allowed me to help patients, as well as their families and caregivers, cope with memory loss and functional decline associated with aging. I have a special interest in genetic testing and how this cutting-edge technology can determine the ideal medicines and care. Our office provides care to adults of all ages. We provide physicals and well-women exams, obtain in-office lab work and ECGs and perform minor office surgeries and cryotherapy.

Reviews from the web
I feel extremely safe under his care.
Since our relationship is fairly new, I feel we are off to a good start.
I kept trying 😊 and Dr.David LeVine is well worth the trouble. He’s been my doctor now for 12 years and when he changed to MDVIP I did not have to think long if I wanted to remain being his patient.
He’s the best doctor I ever had and when he’s with you, you know at that time you’re the only person that matters to him. I’m fortunate to be quite healthy, therefore I don’t see him often, but my yearly checkup is coming up. Love his receptionist and his nurse too. Just a great feeling to know if I’d need him, he’d be there for me. He once opened up his office for me, accompanied by my daughter, at 9:30pm until 11, no ER needed with Dr. LeVine, he’s the BEST!
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.
