About David Zekser, MD
I have been practicing medicine for 20 years and since my earliest years in the medical field, I have remained focused on making and keeping my patients as healthy and happy as I can. I work closely with all of my patients to integrate them as active participants in their own health and well-being. I incorporate healthy eating habits, physical activity, and lifestyle choices that can help achieve similar or even better outcomes than those that rely on medication alone. This is a patient-based approach in which I tailor my recommendations to each patient's age, mobility, work schedule and family and social responsibilities.
I have worked in and for major hospitals in New York such as Mount Sinai, Beth Israel, New York Presbyterian, St. Luke's and Columbia as well as being a partner in a private practice. In 2008, I moved from New York City to Florida and worked at Holy Cross Hospital and Memorial Hospital before deciding to pursue my long-term goal of owning my own primary care medical practice. In addition to running my medical practice, I created a successful weight loss program from the ground up and now frequently assist patients to achieve their weight loss goals.
In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I specialize in internal medicine and work with patients to better manage their health conditions and concerns including everything from Alzheimer's to Zoster. I treat acute (new) conditions, such as rashes, infections, sports and physical injuries and sexually transmitted diseases, as well as chronic (longer term) conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, elevated cholesterol, HIV, dementia, depression and anxiety. My approach in general is one of inclusion. I stay in close contact with specialists and patients to assist with the coordination of medical care.

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.
