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.

Dr. DeBoard is an outstanding practitioner. I have had top shelf care from him. Knowing that I have access to his consultations 24/7 is worth every cent of the membership experience. Without question I endorse Dr. DeBoard

My husband and I are fortunate to have been under the care of Dr. DeBoard and his staff for nearly 15 years. Dr. DeBoard is an extraordinarily gifted physician who consistently renders informed professional and compassionate care. We are amazed at his breadth and depth of medical knowledge and are grateful for his generous time when we have concerns, and fears, about our health. Perhaps the strongest acknowledgement that we can provide of Dr. DeBoard is that we feel like we are part of his family - his care is both professional and personal.

I look forward to my visits with Dr. DeBoard. He always takes the time to assess my medical situation from a holistic point of view, while taking my priorities into consideration. Dr. DeBoard is accessible and his office staff are very helpful in scheduling my appointments. When I do have medical issues, Dr. DeBoard either addresses them himself or refers me to the appropriate specialists and/or testing. On several occasions, Dr. DeBoard has researched the latest approaches to addressing my medical concerns, and has contacted me personally with the information that he has found. On rare occasions when I need after hours support, Dr. DeBoard has been easily assessible. I really appreciate the effort that Dr. DeBoard has made to help me maintain my health. Because of his personal approach, I have a high level of confidence that we are doing everything possible to keep me as healthy as possible for as long as possible. It would be very hard for me to switch to another primary care physician, who may have a more "boiler-plate" approach to my care. I always leave my visits with Dr. DeBoard feeling that things aren't as bad as I perceive them to be and that the opportunities to find solutions are not as limited as I may have been led to believe
Thank you for all of your help Dr. DeBoard.

Dr. Deboard is the best!
Gary and I are so blessed to have been able to keep him as our primary DR. when he joined MDVIP! We initially thought maybe the expense would not benefit us as we are young comparatively to most of his patients...but we both agree now, that the level of care that we receive is worth every dollar! Thank you Dr.Deboard for all the time and personalized care you give!

There are not enough words that can describe the excellent care Dr. DeBoard provides to me and my family. His knowledge of all aspects of medicine is outstanding and his empathy, patience, good humor and steadfastness are exemplary. He is an outstanding physician, compassionate, caring, sensitive, intuitive with a great sense of humor and always goes the extra mile with his care and concern.

Last year I required surgery for cancer, and despite being in the healthcare profession, I had many questions & concerns. I ended up calling Dr. DeBoard outside of his office hours for advice. He was gracious & understanding. He went through my options & discussed the pros & cons with me. I’m sure I made the right decision for me with his input. I am very appreciative of his caring, compassionate approach to medicine. He’s truly one-of-a-kind!!

Superb Physician!

I have been a patient of Dr. DeBoard's for many, many years. HOW I became a patient is one of my stories. My previous PCP had suddenly passed away so I was frantically searching for a new doctor. A friend knew a nurse at Queen's Hospital in Honolulu. She asked her friend for recommendations. The friend immediately said that Dr. DeBoard was very well liked and appreciated by the hospital nurses. Read more...
