James R. Boyed, MD, FAAFP

Dr. Boyed always makes time to listen, understand and explain. Appointments do fall behind schedule sometimes, but it's because he's spending time with patients.

Very disappointed in this establishment. Unprofessional. Do not come here. I’ve had close family/friends who have came here and it was the same experience. Older lady hung up on me TWICE. When she did answer she was rude and nasty. I could hear her talking about me to her work colleagues. In other words she is a nasty person. She needs to be replaced. I will not be returning because of her.

We've been with Dr. Boyed for about five years. This is a concierge style office/service. We searched for a doctor when we moved to Tucson, having been blessed with a good doctor in another state for over 20 years. Dr. Boyed is thorough and clear. He clearly explains all test results and offers recommendations and options for managing conditions and illnesses. He diagnosed a low thyroid condition and explained how that led to my chronic fatigue He also changed one of my medications that had previously been prescribed and which produced side effects. It is clear that he keeps updated on medical conditions and medications. We have been happy with Dr. Boyed. His office staff is also friendly, caring and wonderful.

Concierge doctors are the best

Dr.Boyd is a understanding and caring Doctor. He takes alot of blood ,but it can be the first sign when something is starting to go wrong. He has a good sence of humor and can be lighthearted,But When something is serious he can be VERY STERN. Over all a great listener and someone who. Takes his time to answer all questions and concerns. And His Nursing staff is BEYOND AWSOME,AHH, IF ONLY WE COULD CLONE HIS OFFICE MANAGER SHIRLEY, THE NICEST PERSON SHE GREETS YOU LIKE YOUR HER LONG LOST SISTER AND SEEMS HAPPY TO SEE YOU.SHE ALWAYS HAS A SMILE ON HER TONE. JUST WONDERFUL.

Best GP I've ever had. Takes time to explain everything. Very patient.

From what I know , Dr. Boyd is an outstanding doctor. However I feel that the office Manager his wife .
Is very hard on giving honest employees reference's .
My daughter worked for Dr. Boyd for over 8 years and they parted ways.
Instead of getting my daughter help with the opioid crisis , which Dr . Boyd prescribed her . She FIRED HER ! And now that she's got her life back on track and doing amazing things.
She's trying to get back into the medical field. And this woman has black balled her from getting rehired .
How is that a honest establishment.
I feel like the Dr. She worked for Dr Boyd, he prescribed her medicine, I thought it was against the laws.
But it happened, and when Ann got depended on them .
She's gone through a lot and this Isabella Boyd has made Ann her mission to ruin.
If the Dr knew that his wife was responsible for her decision. I believe he would be most upset.
Ann was the best Assistant he had ask any of his patients.
I'm reaching out to the public to be mindful. The opioid Crisis is real .
It's destroyed a lot of people.
I know that she's been trying giving it her all to get back to her Career.
I've always respected Dr. Boyd , he is an awesome Doctor. Except for the Opioid prescription he gave my daughter. Whom I will always be there for. Her children are innocent in all this , and yet the girls are the ones who are suffering from the whole incident. I just wished that people keep their own personal feelings out of giving references, when you know that she was the best.

Dr. Boyed and staff are excellent, everybody friendly and they have excellent bedside manner, I found Dr. Boyed in 2006 when my Mom had started getting Alzheimer's. I was very impressed with him, I changed over to him, from a Doctor I was seeing for 20yrs

Dr. James Boyed is the best doctor we ever had. He’s professional, knowledgeable, and truly cares for his patients. He takes time to get to know you.

Dr James Boyed and his staff are excellent. The price of MDVIY is high but I am currently staying with MDVIP.

Dr. Boyed is truly a rare gem in the medical field. He’s not just a physician—he’s someone who genuinely cares about his patients and takes great pride in his craft. From the very beginning, Dr. Boyed took the time to thoroughly review my family history and medical records. But what truly stood out was how attentively he listened—not just hearing my concerns, but really *understanding* them and helping me make sense of what might be going on with my health.

In the past, I’ve had doctors brush off my symptoms with comments like, “You’re young, healthy, and active—there’s nothing to worry about,” or they’d simply hand me a prescription without much explanation. But with Dr. Boyed, I finally felt seen, heard, and taken seriously. For once, I wasn't overlooked because I’m into fitness and live an active lifestyle.

And it’s not just Dr. Boyed who made an impact—his entire staff was equally exceptional. From the front desk to the clinical team, every single person showed professionalism, kindness, and urgency. Whether it was getting a timely callback, ensuring my medical records arrived before my appointment, or efficiently scheduling my labs—every detail was handled with care.

The office itself is clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed to make patients feel comfortable and at ease. But what truly sets this place apart is the warmth, attention, and quality of care throughout the entire experience.

If you're looking for a doctor who listens, understands, and truly *cares*—look no further than Dr. Boyed and his phenomenal team.

Arrogant, ineffective doctor, nasty med tech and thinks she's
the queen of the small office. Dr Boyd cannot work well with
others that is why he does not share an office with any other
medical professionals.

Dr. Boyed harmed my wife by being an arrogant bully. We didn’t notice this personality trait at first because he was charming. It only became obvious when my wife had bad side effects to several medications he prescribed. Apparently he didn’t believe her. As if he couldn’t believe it was possible for him to prescribe the wrong treatment, he actually tried to pressure her into taking these medications anyway, by telling her “Well, if you’re not going to take these medications, I guess we’ll just have to wait for you to have a stroke or a heart attack and die.“

Dr. Bored is a thorough, thoughtful and very conscious doctor. He has great bedside manner and a good sense of humor.

I have gained so much knowledge about my health from Dr. Boyed. He is an exceptional doctor. I feel explains everything so thoroughly, that I never leave confused or with questions. He never worries about the time a visit takes, which is rare. I feel I can contact him at any time if I’m concerned. So worth the money to be his patient.

We are pretty high maintenance people and Dr. Boyed and his team take excellent care of us. My wife has been with him since her early 20's and considers herself a "Lifer" with Dr. Boyed. For me, it's outstanding to finally have a physician who knows more about medicine than I do. Dr. Boyed regularly takes the time to explain the importance of test results, answer any questions, and make sure that we both understand everything we need to know about our health. The 4077 M*A*S*H may have said it first, but Dr. Boyed sets the standard. Best Care Anywhere!

Dr. Boyed is so knowledgeable and always up-to-date on the latest research to find the best treatment possible for his patients. He is personally invested in the well-being of his patients even when the treatment/ conditions are complicated to treat. Best doctor by far.

Dr. James Boyed is the absolute best doctor in Tucson, AZ. I had some health issues and I was seeing another doctor and a nurse practitioner for my issues. They were never ever diagnosed right. I had the other doctor tell me I was going to die. I couldn't believe a doctor would say that and then give me wrong medicine to fix my issue. Dr. Boyed not only gives me the time he also diagnosed me correctly and now we are fixing my issue. He is super honest and direct, but also caring at the same time. I love love love Dr. Boyed. I have a friend that sees him, my husband sees him, and my parents see him. I will not see another doctor in town without him knowing. When you are seeing Dr. Boyed he gives you the time. You can ask him a million questions. Doesn't matter if there are patients waiting, you are his patient that he is seeing at the moment and he is caring about you. Doesn't matter how long he takes he is giving you the patient the time. I love his staff. In the past there were a couple of women who worked there that I didn't care for but the staff that is there now are super great. If you want a dr that is attentive to your needs and listens to you and cares about your health, then go with Dr. Boyed. If you don't want that in a doctor then go to someone else, its that simple.

Truly THE BEST doctor. If all doctors were like him, we would all be much healthier. I did a longer review than planned because it's important.

I started with him many years ago & knew he was great. Then had a few years without insurance, and no doc. When I got insurance again at first I tried another doctor on our plan. She wouldn't do the tests on my blood work I asked for, saying I didn't need them. She also wouldn't get an MRI of my painful back because "it was expensive; we'll do an xray" which I already knew shows nothing (I've had a few already). She said all my labs were good, and my xray was good so my back was fine. (Tell that to my pain). It was also obvious that it was her goal to get in and out as quickly as possible. (I would try to ask her a question but it was hard to get an answer while she was literally walking out the door).

A year later I FINALLY got Dr. Boyed back. He does more extensive blood work and found several issues to be addressed. He also got my MRI approved, and guess what - SEVERE degenerative disc disease and neural foraminal stenosis. My blood work is now all good, I have received physical therapy to help with my back, I feel SO much healthier, and continuing to improve. He doesn't "bandage a problem" he finds out what is CAUSING it, to fix it where it starts.

Now he is with the MDVIP program, has fewer patients, you are ALWAYS seen on time and he still TAKES HIS TIME with his patients, listens to them, and thoroughly explains everything. It's worth every penny of the membership program to keep him. Since I know what it's like to have him, then NOT, I never want to lose my doc again. My health and my life depend on him.

All doctors should be like him and we would all be better off. Thank you, Dr. Boyed. I couldn't be this healthy without you. 👨‍⚕️⚕🙂

Dr Boyed and his office staff are the best. He is gentle and kind but firm when he needs to be. He makes sure that he is current with all medical advancements in order to give the best to his patients. I trust him implicitly and hope to be with him till he retires.

I was looking for a new PCP (mine retired) and contacted Dr. Boyed's office. Unfortunately, he belongs to something called MDVIP, which will charge me $1800/year in addition to any other medical costs related to my actual care. No thanks! Still looking for a PCP.

Dr Boyed has changed my life. He is so good at explaining everything and really does a great job!!!!

They refused me as a patient for no reason. I needed a Primary Care Physician and they said they were accepting patients, they took my health history and said they would call back with an 'answer' as if it is an application for work or school that can be refused. I got a call back 1 hour later, saying the doctor refused my care. What kind of doctor refuses care to a patient? When I inquired why, they said "the Doctor doesn't tell us the reasons.." which of course, is a lie. I wasn't aware that doctors could refuse care to an elderly patient just because they want to. Receptionists attitude was that of 'we are too good to treat you'.

Steer clear, find a better physician.

Unnecessary radiation from repeated persantine imaging tests. More radiation than CT scans. I think I had four total tests in the few years I was with him. I never even heard the results because it was always negative.I. did not realize the amount of radiation they had. I would have never agreed if I had known. Surprise surprise!! I put an edit to my comments today. It is now 12/31/22. I was just diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last week. How many people go to their primary and have three persantine thallium tests within three years when I really had no symptoms except hypertension? Mr. cardiologist. The timing of a little less that 20 years to develop especially when there is not a strong family history of any cancers.

Very carrying and knowledgeable with great attention to details. Spends a lot of time reviewing tests results with very positive attitude and advice. Presents the comparison for current tests results with previous years and interprets all positive and or negative changes. I'm 74 old woman and I had never experienced such an incredible. personal and details care prior to me joining services provided by Dr. Boyed!

I have recommended Dr. Boyed to many friends and wish everyone I know could have him for their Doctor. He is extremely knowledgeable and wholistic in his approach. He thoroughly explains everything and gives excellent guidance based on the most up to date research. He takes as much time as you need to explain everything in detail and educate you on your health.

Momwas one of Dr Boyed's first patients decades ago. I've been with him over 15 years. He is absolutely the finest PCP you could ever ask for. He genuinely cares, his staff is great, you just could not hope to find a better doctor!

Husband and I signed on with Dr.Boyed a few months ago. Our dear friends have been with him for a couple of years and told us about him.

The office staff is great and Dr. Boyed give us time. We can get in to see him quickly. He pays attention to details.
We are happy to have signed on with him, and are looking forward to a a long relationship in the future to come.

Dr. Boyed is an amazing physician! He's beem my mother's doctor for decades and mine for a year. Excellent work, kind and extremely kind and caring. Best doctor I've ever had. In 3 months he identified and corrected thyroid, cholesterol, and vitamin and mineral deficiencies my last doctor of 20 years never suspected. He's simply amazing!

Dr. Boyed was the best Dr. I ever had. He cared and was highly knowledgeable. He could figure out what was wrong with you even when other physicians couldn't. I miss him.

Dr. Boyed is the most thorough doctor around. He cares so much about his patients and is always staying up to date on he latest research to practice preventive medicine which is unlike most practitioners today. Great doctor who is very invested in the well being of his patients.

We began with Dr. Boyed over a year ago with my husband, this was our first MDVIP experience, it was so remarkable that I joined a few months later. I rave about this care where ever I go because it represents the type of medical care you could only hope to have but never see. Dr. Boyed is conscientious and his experience is not expensive it is "priceless". The staff is a delight., The office feels like home. Throughout the Covid time no fear was translated but rather an excellent group of immune builders were recommended. We took the recommended supplements and while we did not curtail our going about...neither my husband nor I contracted Covid. I truly think it was partially to the early and thorough building of our immune system. Thank you so much Dr. Boyed and staff!!

Great doctors most worthless office staff, rude, argumentative and unprofessional

The field of internal medicine is an art. One must navigate between dry, scientific data and an expanse of subtle patterns of symptoms presented by the individual patient. An expert internist formulates a hypothesis which integrates his/her analytical reasoning and intuition. Dr. James Boyed possesses both categories of skill in abundance. Our family is extremely grateful to be in his care.

I really appreciate the care, attention to detail, and analytical approach taken by Dr. Boyed. Thank you!

I Highly recommend MDVIP, DR JAMES BOYED, for your primary care.
