Jeffrey C. Obiora, MD

As a dedicated internal medicine physician, I believe that medicine can be more individualized when physician and patient form a partnership founded on trust. My goal with all of my patients is to form a connection that has depth. I want to see the bigger picture, not just your symptoms. I want to know your family, your goals and the things that keep you up at night. Hearing about all layers of the individual can yield a more personalized care plan.

Walking through the complexities of medicine can be daunting for anyone. I want my patients to feel supported and empowered as we take this journey together. My investigative approach considers both the mind and body, a perspective shaped by my foundation in neuroscience at Emory University, further developed at the University of Louisville School of Medicine, and refined at Northside Hospital in metro Atlanta. Over the past five years in private practice, I have cared for patients with a wide range of medical concerns, deepening my appreciation for listening and compassionate care. Prevention sits at the heart of my philosophy. I have a special interest in cardiovascular risk reduction, obesity, thyroid disorders, diabetes, and anxiety/depression.

The MDVIP model allows me to practice medicine with a smaller patient panel, allowing for more time with each patient and a proactive focus on prevention. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.

Outside the office, I value the same principles I promote to my patients: balance, connection and wellness. I particularly enjoy travel and fitness, but my greatest joy comes from the time I spend with my wife and daughter. These moments remind me that health is not simply the absence of disease, but the ability to fully live a life you love.
