I've had challenges with erratic blood pressure that would swing wildly and having Dr. Schmitz made all the difference. I could always get in to see him the same or if less urgent the next day. He would always stay in contact with me and got me immediate appointments with a cardiologist and a heart rhythm specialist and would coordinate my care with them. I've always felt I was in…

First and foremost, Dr. Schmitz is a wonderful doctor. But in addition, I love that someone answers the phone promptly when you call the office. They squeeze you in when you have a health issue.

My wife and I have been patients of Dr. George Schmitz since the first day he become associated with MDVIP. Unfortunately, she had already been diagnosed with RCC stage 4, a cancer that still has a survival rate of 5%. Under the care of Dr. Schmitz, she continued to live for over 20 years, 18 of which were fairly normal with respect to lifestyle. Of course there were many other specialists who…

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.
