About Irwin S. Korngut, MD

I have been practicing internal medicine in north Texas for my entire career.  My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers conveniences, like same- or next-day appointments with minimal waiting, which may be found in a concierge medicine practice. Additionally, my affiliation allows me to spend more time with my patients to discuss their health issues as well as different testing and care options.

In my opinion, the current healthcare landscape has erected barriers between physicians and their patients which can impede and complicate care while often creating angst and frustration. My goal as a primary care physician is to help break through these barriers and work with my patients to maintain a stronger doctor-patient relationship.

I believe that medicine is a partnership and I am dedicated to being your advocate and providing personalized care to each and every one of my patients. I am committed to helping empower my patients as they pursue staying healthier. In the event that one should develop an illness, I can devote more time and resources to help that individual seek appropriate care. I believe this is my responsibility as a physician.

What our members are saying

Dr. Korngut is one of the best doctors that I have had experience with. He always puts his patients first and gives the time to us as long as we need. His approach to preventative care is excellent and always follows up with any specialists that I have to go to. In the last year I experienced several episodes with my heart and he has always provided the time, service, recommendation and insight…

Dr. Korngut is a big picture doctor - he consistently focuses on the key health issues that can accelerate loss of physical function or mortality, such as weight, heart disease, blood pressure, diabetes, and stroke. I particularly appreciate the post-exam counseling that he provides either in office or by telephone. I have personally benefitted from his coaching and direction by gradually…

I'm not sure how long I've been going to Dr. Korngut. Probably 20 years or more. But I have never regretted seeing him for minor problems and have always felt I am being very carefully evaluated with the more significant situations.

I’m a relatively new patient but couldn’t be happier with Dr. Korngut and his staff. Dr. K.’s practice of patient-centered medicine: deep experience, coupled with active listening and excellent communication make him a top-tier medical doctor. Highest recommendation!

Having experienced colon cancer and health issues related to ostomy surgery, I often have situations that need attention. Dr. Korngut knows me and my issues. He responds quickly and takes care of me. If I need hospitalization, he is right there. I feel very confident that I am getting the best care possible.

Dr. Korngut raises the bar on quality and bedside manner for physicians. He is best in class and his office staff is outstanding. All medical doctors are not created equal. Dr. K is aligned with what's in the best interest of the patient.

Sometimes it seems my concerns are of little interest to you. I have been complaining of certain issues for some time and they seem to have been glossed over. On the good side he is not as reactionary as some of my other doctors. His overall demeanor is good and he is friendly.

I am starting rehearsals for The 98th Annual Prince of Peace Passion Play, in The Beautiful, Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge, natural Amphitheater, on Feburary 12th. 2023. The play requires10 rehearsals as we go from day to night, and from having flashlights, (Torches), and glasses, to performing the play in the dark, with no glasses. We rehearse for 3.5 hours every Sunday, from the 12th of February, thru Easter Sunday. There is also a Palm Play on Palm Sunday. The plays start at 8:30, or dusk. The cast will walk over 100 miles in 10 days!!! The first 5 rehearsals are during the day. (D³ here I come!!!) All the rehearsals require walking and running up and down a mountain and across a 1/4 mile long stage; That I call; "The Playground!!!" "At night in the dark with no glasses!" So, I will not only be exercising It will be freezing, windy, and wet!!! I will be like an army man!!! As for Dr. Korngut and the medical office, things are fine. I will try to come by for a few questions, and a couple of "look at this, moments." On, the 27th of January. That way I will be ready for the 12th of February. Thank You, for your concern. Brother James Kendall Moore OSB OFS OSC ✝️ 🙌

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.
