My husband and I both have rheumatoid arthritis and have had a number of surgeries for joint replacement. Understanding our conditions and coping with these surgeries has been made so much easier by the knowledge, skill and availability of Dr. Kalonaros. He calls us as soon as possible after we leave a message and his insights have been invaluable to us. He is heaven-sent, truly, and a fine and…

I was once 410#. I only would see a doctor in an emergency because my experience with the medical community was very degrading. Everything I sought treatment for was somehow caused by my weight. I was disrespected and considered myself to have been a person who suffered from supervised neglect. I met Dr Kalonaros after I had begun my gastric bypass journey. I finally had a physician who was…

I rarely write reviews, but when I have something good to share with others, I take the opportunity to do so. As a new patient of Dr. Kalonaros, my first visit to his office was very pleasant. I am very satisfied with the excellent treatment I have received by the doctor who takes time to talk and listen to the patient's concerns creating a caring environment that makes the interaction more comfortable.
He is an experienced and knowledgeable doctor who evaluates what works better for the health needs of his patient, and he is doing his best to provide solutions.
All of his associates are very well organized especially his nurse, Anika, who is very friendly and skillful too.
Dr. Kalonaros is one of the best doctors I have ever been to, and it is always a pleasure for me to be seen by him at his great and convenient office location.

Dr Kalonaros is a caring, wonderful doctor with an outstanding bedside manner with his patients. He listens carefully and attentively to all my medical concerns. He is never quick to complete his analysis and, never too busy to make me feel comfortable with his medical treatment.
He has always been a doctor I can trust and rely on for my medical needs. He has always shown kindness and compassion for my medical needs.
I feel very lucky to have Dr Vasilios Kalonaros for my doctor- Thank you, MDVIP!!

I am a brand new patient from a family referral but he treats everyone like it’s his own family. I had a complex acute medical issue and he was the first professional who looked at the whole picture and broke it down for my husband and I so we could finally move forward in my recovery.
He is very understanding and knowledgeable. He may be the only primary I’ve had who knows about a variety of conditions and is spot on with them (the man knows his stuff about migraines where previously only neurologists could advise me when I was under the care of my old PCPs)
For what it’s worth: I do work in direct patient care and after one visit I can attest: this man is truly an incredible doctor. You’d be lucky to have him, I know I am.

I am very happy with the care I receive with Dr. Kalonaros. He is very knowledgeable, caring and communicates very well. He the second doctor my wife and I have had with MD-VIP, and we are grateful to Dr. Steven Friedling for recommending him to us upon his retirement. Dr. Kalonaris is excellent; we look forward a continuing relationship over the upcoming years.

Dr. Kalonaros has been my physician for 35 years. Professional, thorough, accurate, friendly and you leave the office knowing your health and well-being are in good hands. I would not make any health decision without him.

Dr. Kalonaros has been my family's doctor for over 2 decades now. We've stuck with him because he's like family to us and is always there for us through all of our health struggles and guides us with reassuring words and a smile. He is always great to speak to and work with and visit.

Dr. Kalonaros is a very attentive physician who truly cares about the well being of his patients. In my personal experience, he was my advocate while hospitalized in a facility he was not affiliated with, and they partnered to get me the best care during my recovery. He is reachable 24/7, probably not to the delight of his lovely wife, but he takes his oath seriously. A straight shooter when giving you information, Dr. Kalonaros is a compassionate and caring physician. It's why I've been with his practice for over 26 years. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a new practice.

Dr. Kalonros is fantastic, he takes the time to listen and really get to know you along with the health issues or concerns you have. This is my first concierge physician and I will never go back to a general practice. The benefits that come along with the concierge service and the caring staff at Dr. Kalonaros office is well worth it, even for someone that does not visit the Doctor often.

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.
