Meet Francisco J. Velazquez, MD
In Primary Care, the physician is your partner in achieving good health. We will work together so I can guide you and offer recommendations on how to obtain your health goals, but it is up to the patient to implement the plan. I believe that at any given age, you should know how well you are doing health wise, and not just go by how you feel. That’s why it is always important to get a comprehensive health exam every year.
In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, the main building block is the personalized approach I take with each individual during their wellness exam. In order to prevent disease, I have to care for the patient as a whole, and not just review the laboratory results. Special areas of interest to me are high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol management. As a native of Puerto Rico, I am fluent in Spanish.

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.

That’s what I think of when I think of Dr. Velazquez. The reason why is because he truly did save my life many years ago. I was in my early thirties, and he sent me to get a scan because I had a persistent hernia. Well, the radiologist luckily found a small spot on one of my kidneys, which ended up being cancerous. Dr. Velazquez quickly entered quarterback mode and guided me through selecting the doctors. I ended up losing that kidney, but Dr. Velazquez essentially saved my life by going above and beyond the standard care of addressing a hernia. He’s been my doctor for over 20 years, and I have complete faith in his patient care. He truly has patient care and compassion as his driving force. I’m not sure where or if I’d still be around if it weren’t for his close and guiding support for my health. He’s also taking excellent care of my wife’s health as well. So yeah, Dr. Velazquez is a lifesaver.
