About David S. Clifford, MD

My goal as your personal family physician is to help you live a healthier and more active, fulfilling and independent life. Our teamwork helps my patients and me better address acute care situations while emphasizing wellness and approaches to help prevent disease. 

I believe that my education, practice experience and expertise along with compassion and understanding can offer a better healthcare experience, one that can help foster a happier and healthier life.

Practicing in West Seneca for 28 years, I am acquainted with numerous specialists for referrals as needs arise. My MDVIP affiliation supports more individualized care, and the annual wellness program includes advanced screenings and tests shown to help better detect certain risk factors earlier. I hope to help you focus on wellness and prevention, both physically and cognitively, by reviewing possible indicators for heart disease, diabetes and emotional health issues, to name a few. And we offer same- or next-day appointments for added peace of mind.

I am affiliated with Mercy Hospital of Buffalo.  I speak English and Spanish.

I came to see Dr Clifford after going nearly 5 years without seeing a PCP. I was so impressed by his staffs kindness and calm approach to my first appointment anxieties and questions. When you speak with Dr Clifford it is immediately clear he not only cares about his patients, but also about medicine and the advancement of medical biology.

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.
