My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
My primary care practice will continue to serve the Middle Paxton Township, as it has for over 37 years. As an MDVIP-affiliated physician, my goal is to provide you with highly personalized healthcare while focusing on prevention and wellness. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments that start on time. I will also continue in my role as the Chief Medical Officer, treating our students in the Central Dauphin School District. I will remain on active staff with Pinnacle Heath Systems (Community Osteopathic Hospital, Harrisburg Hospital and West Shore Hospital).

Dr. Brescia cares for the health and well-being of all his patients. He always greets his patients with a smile. Whenever there is a health crisis in patient's life, Dr. Brescia cares and acts immediately.

Dr. Brescia has been my doctor for over 20 years and I as all my extended family that were and are patients of his were always treated like VIP'S. I really have no interest in MDVIP but joined because I can't imagine finding or going to another doctor. He and his staff can't be improved on in my opinion.
Recently, I unexpectedly experienced blood clots in my leg. Dr. Brescia, who has been my doctor since he opened his office many years ago, immediately prescribed the appropriate treatments. Dr. Brescia's kind and knowledgeable care resulted in my good health today. He and his staff are always respectful, caring and good listeners. I am most grateful.

Dr Brescia is always available to answer a text or phone call when needed. He listens and makes you feel like you are a partner in your health journey. He is knowledgeable and is current on health issues and treatments. He always makes you feel relaxed and supported !
Dr. Brescia has been our doctor for over 30 years. We just love him. He always there for us. And if he can't help us he sends us to someone who can.
I have been a patient of Dr Brescia for a long time. No matter how badly I may feel when I go to hos office, I feel better when I leave, knowing that my experience with him and MDVIP is always the best.
When all the homes have been bought and sold and all the cars have rusted away, all thats left, is your family a few friends and if your lucky enough like us the same family doctor for 37 yrs. Hes part of our family. Thanks for taking care of us Frank. Thanks for always being there. Jan and Art A.
