Meet James R. Boyed, MD, FAAFP


I am a native of Tucson, born and raised so I love this state and the Arizona desert! My goal as your doctor is to provide a personalized healthcare plan with an emphasis on prevention and wellness. It is my conviction that practicing good medicine includes a partnership between doctor and patient. It is this institution of the doctor-patient relationship which gives perspective and insight to great healthcare.   

The one size fits all approach to the traditional practice of medicine does not account for your uniqueness, genetics, environmental exposures, stressors and life-style choices.   

In my MDVIP-affiliated practice you will be treated with the most up-to-date, evidence-based medicine combining traditional, functional medicine and nutrition. This model integrates best medical practices; offering you the personalized, compassionate healthcare that you deserve. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time. I will work with you to impart a positive vitality and hopefully beyond the absence of disease.

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.

A League of his Own

Dr. Boyed is by far the best physician I have ever had the distinct pleasure of seeing for my health issues. I feel better than I have in years.

First I will say that Dr Boyed has taken the time to get to know who we are. Because of that familiarity we laugh together and He correctly identifies when we are struggling with a medical issue because of our general personalities. He helps overcome every obstacle because he listens, carefully and correctly evaluates and supplies direction. Robert is nearing 83 and Linda (I) am nearing 74 each Read more...

Our Doctor Detective

We're a family of three who see Dr. James Boyd in the MDVIP program. He is the second doctor we have had in the MDVIP program since we moved from California to Arizona in October 2022, and we are so glad we found him.
