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.

Testimonials from patients of James Chanez, MD

He actually considered all test results!

from James in TX • March 13, 2024
I've long had borderline high total cholesterol. But I refuse to take a stating. All my bother markers are good. Previous doctors have tried to prescribe a statin anyway because thats what "guidelines" dictated. Dr. Chanez actually noted how good my other markers are and did not try to prescribe a statin. We are just watching and monitoring together.

Yesterday and Today

from Lynda in TX • March 11, 2024
My story with Dr. Chanez began many years ago. Even before he became a MDVIP-affiliated doctor, he was to me a VIP. I knew when I called, I would be able to see him without a long wait. He displayed then the same professionalism, knowledge, caring, and determination to diagnose any medical issue I might have had. I am happy to say my story with Dr. Chanez continues today and shall continue. I Read more...

A Partner to Help Manage My Quality of Health

from Tommy in TX • March 10, 2024
For me, I would say that most effective relationships aren’t in a singular interaction but rather a series of interactions that set the tone for a long term, effective relationship that is beneficial. I have certainly had singular moments with Dr. Chanez (example: Hep C diagnosis) that I was thankful to have Dr Chanez’s insights but I am most appreciative of the frequent interactions we have Read more...

Swiss Holiday

from Anne in TX • March 6, 2024
Image provided by: Anne
After enjoying several days in Switzerland, health became an issue. Suddenly the vacation was over and a week stay in the Interlaken Hospital started. What started as asthma moved to pneumonia and heart issues. We trusted the Swiss doctors but contacting Dr Chanez was a terrific comfort. The ability to have a trusted “friend” to share the burden with was wonderful.
That friend/ doctor Read more...

from Glenn in TX • January 22, 2024
I take a list of questions each time I meet with my Doctor James Chanez. He has an ability to quickly understand my long list of concerns and issues and provide very substance solutions/recommendations. I find immediate stress reduction, relief & motivation in a very short timeframe when meeting with him!
