About Donald L. Blackmon, Jr., MD

My goal as your personal doctor is to partner with you to help you achieve your health goals – including taking care of your acute illnesses in a timely manner, guiding you with advances in prevention of disease, minimizing complications of chronic diseases and helping to optimize your quality of life as much as possible.

As one of the few internal medicine doctors in Northwest Florida offering this personalized healthcare approach, I provide a level of care that can help make a happy, healthy future your reality. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments that start on time.

My practice is located in Pensacola, Florida,  and serves patients from south Alabama through the western counties of northwest Florida, including Gulf Breeze, Niceville, Perdido, Spanish Fort, Lillian and Pensacola. We focus on preventive care in addition to all aspects of primary care. I am affiliated with Sacred Heart Hospital with admitting privileges.

Dr. Blackmon had ordered lab tests. When he had the results one test was slightly high and, being the excellent physician he is, he ordered additional tests. Those tests showed abnormal results and he said to check with my oncologist. Several tests and a bone marrow later, I was diagnosed with a cancer that is incurable. Because of Dr. Blackmon not ignoring that slightly abnormal result, when…

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.
