Meet James P. Marlys, MD, ABIM


I am a board-certified internal medicine physician located in Point Pleasant and affiliated with Hackensack University Ocean Medical Center. Throughout my career I have provided time to patients both in office and those hospitalized. I continue to make hospital visits, “rounds,” every day, as I have for 33 years, including holidays. In many ways, the coronavirus pandemic was challenging for all. My office remained opened. My staff was available, constantly vigilant and dedicated to my patients. The thought of closing never entered my mind, as earlier intervention proved to be beneficial. 

COVID-infected patients who got admitted to my hospital service improved and left the hospital. In my office practice, COVID-infected patients were seen day or night and many were given my private cell phone number for their reassurance. I believe my success with COVID and my medical practice over the years is directly related to my personalized care, consistent availability and independent thinking. I am aware that medicine has changed over the past decades but in my reduced practice size as my patient, I believe you deserve the appropriate eye contact and the time to be heard and cared for.

My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.

More than ever, my practice focuses on preventative care by blending traditional with naturopathic options and together we can work to meet the future health challenges that are inevitable to most everyone.

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 P. Marlys, MD, ABIM

Annual wellness exam

from Rosemarie in NJ • May 15, 2024

Dr. Marlys Saved My Life!

from Eileen in NJ • March 17, 2024
In the summer of 2023, Dr. James Marlys saved my life. I was hospitalized for a break in my pelvic bone. After two MRIs and a CT scan, Dr. Marlys ordered an ultrasound of my legs. Two blood clots were discovered - one in my leg and another in my lung. I had no symptoms whatsoever! When I asked Dr Marlys why he ordered the ultrasound, he said that he began thinking "out of the box' with me - a Read more...
