About Igor Elman, DO
I believe the relationship between a patient and their doctor remains a treasured and essential pillar in helping to promote a person's well-being. My MDVIP-affiliated, personalized primary care medicine practice allows me to spend more time with each of my patients to discuss their unique needs and help them as they work toward improved health.
My experience as a board certified internal medicine osteopathic physician includes four years practicing internal medicine as a full-time hospitalist at St. Francis Hospital in Roslyn, a high-volume Long Island, New York, cardiac center. As a hospitalist, I was the lead attending physician, helping to review my patients’ care and plans with other medical specialists in the hospital. I also maintain admitting privileges at Montefiore Nyack Hospital in Nyack, New York.
I offer a different approach to primary care with conveniences like same- and next-day appointments with minimal waiting as well as my reachability by phone for more urgent medical needs. My practice is in New City, New York, and is open to new patients, including Medicare and commercially insured. I also offer the annual MDVIP Wellness Program, which includes comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices and can help identify risk factors.
I also have a strong focus on prevention and can offer services outside of the Wellness Program, such as carotid artery wall ultrasound (CIMT) that may detect soft and intermediate plaque in the blood vessels, as well as advanced cancer screening methods, like genetic cancer screenings and multi-cancer detection testing options, which carry an additional fee. I emphasize exercise/dietary lifestyle modifications for weight management and have experience using GLP1 medications for meaningful weight loss under professional supervision.

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.
