Dr. Underhill

Meet Erik A. Underhill, MD


If you are a patient of Dr. Underhill or Dr. Heldt, please call MDVIP at 302.371.9561. They can help finalize your transfer/enrollment in the practice to help avoid interruption in your care.

I chose to specialize in primary care internal medicine because I believe there is enormous opportunity to help people pursue healthier lives by teaching them about how their complex bodies work and how lifestyle, habits and environment affect our day-to-day health and sense of well-being. In my experience, what is essential to this is the joy of getting to know a person over time and learning how his or her background, beliefs and goals may affect his or her mental and physical health. I aim to meet people where they are and help them define and pursue their health goals.

Central to delivering this type of care is spending time with patients. I have been practicing medicine for 25 years and elected to change to a personalized care model over a decade ago because spending more time with patients is at the heart of the model. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. I look forward to working with you to help you pursue optimum health.

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.
