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 Mary in VA March 12, 2024 for Herb King, MD

When we moved from North Myrtle Beach to Va, my husband’s concierge doctor recommended Dr Herb King. Due to Bob’s deteriorating health, he saw Dr King a lot. I accompanied him to all his visits and really appreciated the time he spent with him. Bob was always able to reach Dr King and I know he felt confident about his care. When Bob was admitted to the hospital for the last time Dr King… See more

March 2020 was the beginning of the covid pandemic and my husband came down with a terrible case of it. He was even in our local hospital as as their first covid patient in the ICU. Thankfully, he survived! Dr. King was available 24/7 to answer all of my questions and offer advice. He even called just to check on the two of us. Here we are 4 years later, and that level of service is something… See more

1) AFTER THE DOCTOR THAT INVENTED THE PSA TEST CAME OUT WITH AN ARTICLE WHERE HE DENOUNCED IT AS THE WORST THING THAT HE COULD HAVE DONE DUE TO ALL OF THE FALSE POSITIVES THAT WERE COMING OUT OF IT AND CAUSING A NUMBER OF ISSUES. MY PSA NUMBER AT TIME WAS .6 AT THAT TIME APPRXIMATELY 2006, IT WAS DECIDED THAT WE WOULD FOREGO FURTHER PSA TESTING FOR THE TIME BEING.

from Richard in VA February 16, 2024 for Herb King, MD

First of all, Dr. King is a fantastic doctor who truly cares about his patients and provides superior service. I am a military retiree with Tricare for Life (TFL), and, as such, between Medicare Part B and TFL, I have few medical expenses. Dr. King was my physician before he joined MDVIP, and I was reluctant to enroll because of an added, unnecessary expense, but I was more reluctant to give… See more

Dr. Herbert King is always “ahead of the curve” when it comes to keeping my husband Lawson and me feeling strong and healthy. He is easy to reach, proactive with his diagnosis, is excellent about “follow up”, and tries his very BEST to encourage us to exercise and watch our diets. He also has a WONDERFUL nurse!
Dr. King knows we are “retired” but are passionate in our work with a… See more
