About James W. Steiner, MD, FAAFP
I believe the patient must come first. As a physician practicing in the 21st century, my goal is to provide the best possible care with compassion and dignity while never forgetting that the patient is a real person. I know this goal can best be achieved by personalized medical care for each of my patients. I want the best for my patients' health now and in the future.
Similar to concierge medicine practices, my MDVIP-affiliated practice offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments with minimal waiting. I also offer telemedicine appointments.

My wife is doing well now with the proper treatment.
I don't think my wife would have survived without Dr. Stiener care, and continued support.

Reviews from the web






and have complete trust in him and would recommend him.



This is absolutely the best way for me to receive medical care. I have a world of respect and I like Dr. Steiner and I actually enjoy seeing him when I go into his office. There’s no rush I can take my time and read my list of issues with him and he will take his time to make sure I understand.
He also has a wonderful, caring and respectful staff who are very knowledgeable. They also take care of my other medical needs such as when I ask them to refill a prescription or to set up an appointment for an x-ray or an MRI that it will done in a timely way.
Seeing Dr. Steiner and MDVIP has fulfilled all the desires I’ve had for many years for the delivery of medical care. As an aside my children also like Dr. Steiner when they call and have questions for him about me. He certainly goes the extra yard.





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.
