What our members are saying

I have been seeing Dr. West since we moved to Atlanta in 1991. In 1995 I came down with a serious case of pneumonia and basically lost 5 days of my life that I don't even remember. Dr. West was there for me every step of the way. He saved my life.
Now, i actually enjoy seeing him. He has a great personality and always has time for me regardless of the issue I want to discuss. In…

Dr. West has been both my friend and my doctor for years. He has always been a caring physician, but MDVIP has allowed him to practice medicine the way it should be. At every visit, he takes the time to explain what is going on with my health and we discuss my treatment plan in detail. I have shared my experiences with friends, family, and coworkers and some of them has signed up to see Dr. West…

Our first encounter with Dr. West occurred when our mother-in-law who lived a distance from us was constantly having medical issues. We decided it would be best to move her in with us, and asked her current doctor to connect us with a doctor in our area. Dr. West immediately took her off the numerous prescriptions she was taking. She soon began to feel alive and strong again. When I thanked Dr…

Dr. West, for the past 23+ years you have been there for us from Dick's heart attack, silly mouth drooling that turned into a nightmare and all the other problems that have come up many due to age.
You have been available to us night's and weekends when Pam had an adverse reaction to discontinuing medication to the kidney stone ordeal and her arthritis problems.
We trust…

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.
