About Fathima Syed, MD

During my ten years of hospital care experience, I have diagnosed and managed many chronic diseases and their complications. Now, as I transition to outpatient care, I am excited to focus my practice on preventive medicine. Whether it is preventing the disease or it’s complications, the key is always communication. 

Being the first female MDVIP-affiliated physician in the Tampa Bay area, I am committed to providing care that is based on my patients’ individual needs. The MDVIP model allows physicians to spend more time with each patient to be educators and advocates for our patients’ well-being. I hope to provide my patients with personalized care that is meaningful so they may reach their optimal health.

What our members are saying

Dr. Syed is truly a blessing to me. Since I’m a ‘senior citizen’, I’m genuinely hoping Dr Syed will be my Dr throughout my final journey home (which is probably many years from now).😊 I first met her when accompanying a friend, who was her patient, for some appointments. When I experienced how she treated my friend, I really wanted her to be my primary care…but i needed to go on a waiting list. i…

I truly believe that my doctor, Fathima Syed, is my guardian angel. Recently I had a very concerning medical condition that I thought was possibly an indication of a serious problem. I called Dr. Syed who asked me to come in the office that same day. After consulting with her, she concluded that I needed to see a specialist for this particular issue. Dr. Syed personally took it upon herself to…

I have been seeing Dr. Syed for several years now. I even moved 1 1/2 hours away but I refuse to change doctors.

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.
