My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

I believe life is better when we prevent rather than react. Nowhere is that more true than with your health, but it takes a relationship between a patient and physician, the appropriate amount of time and the right resources. Prevention is my goal as we partner together using advanced testing to define your risks and then meet them head on with a preventive plan. With this personalized approach, we can manage your risks and current health problems to change the course of your future health. If the unexpected happens, I will be there for you to walk the journey together. Neither you nor I have to settle for anything less. 

The practice of medicine is a complex art that requires many tools. I will combine the comprehensive approach of my Mayo Clinic training and the compassionate relationship-based care Midlothian Family Practice has provided to central Virginia for over 125 years. My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, also offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. Together we can practice medicine with the relationship of yesterday and the state-of-the-art tools of tomorrow.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. King

from Edward in VA February 12, 2024 for Herb King, MD

I called my Doctor Herbert King
At 1:30 am he answered the phone severe abdominal pain, I was on my knees it hurt so bad. He tried to diagnose over the phone and told me it was probably a kidney stone, ended telling me go to the ER. It was exactly that after some pain med. and a scan it had already passed. When ever I contact Dr. King he springs into acting and when ever I see him he is… See more

from James in VA February 11, 2024 for Herb King, MD

Dr. King is the best —-for the sake of time and space I will say he is knowledgeable, caring, patient, quick to return calls , excellent staff , very thorough , exceptionally informative , always leaves me with the feeling I am not just a patient but rather more like a family member. He and his staff are in my daily prayers. He obviously has found his calling. 

from Dawn in VA February 11, 2024 for Herb King, MD

I joined MDVIP 2-3 years ago because I have so many complicated issues. Dr. King has always listened intently and courteously and takes good dictation when I ask for a referral or want to try another medication or get a test. I have his cell number but have only used it maybe 3 times because I don't want to abuse the privilege. Ordinarily, I reach out via the portal and it only takes… See more

from Jane in VA January 30, 2024 for Herb King, MD

At 65 I recently had my best physical in several years. Dr King and the great staff at MD.VIP have helped me feel better than I have in a long time. We are enjoying our first grandchild and I'd love to be healthy enough to see him grow up.

from Phillip in VA January 18, 2024 for Herb King, MD

Dr. Herbert King perform a physical on me prior to my annual Medicare physical. Dr. King noted that I was on the verge of going into A-Fib. He immediately sent me to a heart doctor, and we set up an appointment to perform an ablation. I strongly feel that this early detection prevented me from a possible future stroke.

from Frank in VA January 18, 2024 for Herb King, MD

Dr. Herbert King was my primary care doctor for about 10 years. Then he went into MDVIP. Because of my finances, I could not afford him. In the two years that he was not my doctor, my health started to decline. Therefore l made some sacrifices, and found my way back to Dr. King. Not only has my physical health improved, but my mental outlook is more positive as well. He always makes time for… See more

from Sam in VA May 5, 2022 for Herb King, MD

I spent much of my life being more reactive than proactive to health care. This would have been different for me if I had experienced at a younger age the care and consultation I have received from Dr. King and his staff, especially Lauren, over the past decade. When Dr. King advised he was going to associate with MDVIP, there was no hesitation on my part to continue with him as my Primary… See more
