About James W. Greene, MD, FAAFP

I believe that a family physician’s knowledge, experience, insight and technical ability should come together when evaluating and helping to treat patients. My goal is to help my patients pursue optimal health through wellness and prevention plans based on their needs and goals. To me, the key is forming personalized partnerships by sincerely caring, listening, educating and advocating for my patients.

My family medicine practice allows me to share my passion for prevention, men’s and women’s health, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, thyroid disease and gastrointestinal health. 

My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. My office is nestled near the Georgia coast on the mainland city of Brunswick, Georgia, situated midway between Savannah and Jacksonville, Florida. My practice also serves many southeast Georgia locations, such as Jekyll Island, Saint Simons Island, Sea Island, Waycross, Darien, Jesup, Midway, Savannah and Kingsland, to name a few.

I have courtesy staff privileges at Southeast Georgia Health System-Brunswick Campus.

Dr. Greene has been readily available when I have needed his help. Anytime I have called with a desire to see him that was not previously scheduled, I have always been able to go to the office that day or the next. Very unusual for most physicians. I was also recently surprised when he called me to check on my status during this Corona virus sequester. His phone call made me feel as if he…

I started going back to Dr. Greene (he was my primary physician years earlier) after my husband passed away as I wanted a higher level of care while I was going through this difficult time. As it turns out, I have several health issues I needed to deal with and Dr. Greene always has a kind, compassionate and listening ear for me when I need him. I recommend him to anyone who wants a doctor who…

Dr Greene and I have collaborated on my “Wellness” for five years and my friends and spouse all see me getting younger and healthier as I crossed the 70 year old threshold. Life is great thanks to his concern for thoroughness and prevention of negative health factors. Let’s keep it going,

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.
