About Jada Moore-Ruffin, MD, FAAFP
Health is personal—and your care should be, too. As a physician, I believe personalized medicine requires time, trust and a relationship built on listening. In a world where doctor’s appointments often feel rushed and not available in a timely fashion, I have chosen a different path. Through the MDVIP model, my patients can enjoy convenient same- or next-day visits, the ability to contact me directly, and care that is proactive—not merely reactive.
My approach blends clinical experience with a holistic focus on the whole person—mind, body, spirit and lifestyle. I integrate evidence-based medicine with personalized wellness strategies to help you as you work to look, feel and live better. Whether you are a busy professional, a frequent traveler, or simply tired of being “shuffled around” and “doctor hopping,” my goal is to be your lifelong wellness partner. I provide care in a calm, professional environment designed for meaningful connection and personalized attention.
I am a board-certified family and obesity medicine physician and a specialist in other health areas with nearly three decades of experience helping patients as they pursue reclaiming energy, confidence and balance. Beyond my practice, I am a wife, mother and entrepreneur who understands firsthand the challenge of juggling achievement with self-care. I live what I teach, prioritizing movement, mindful nutrition and time outdoors with my family. These experiences shape how I practice medicine—with empathy, authenticity and a deep respect for the whole person sitting in front of me.
My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. Located in Atlanta, Georgia, I serve patients throughout the greater Atlanta area— including Sandy Springs, Buckhead, Dunwoody and surrounding communities well beyond the Perimeter, even out of state. My professional network includes specialists to whom I can refer you, if needed.
Medicine, for me, is not only about illness—it is about helping you feel empowered to pursue well-being. Together, we can craft a plan that supports you as you work to perform at your best, year after year.

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.
