About Jennifer Brown, MD, BSN
Born and raised Alaskan, with an upbringing that instilled values of integrity, compassion, accountability, respect and excellence, I seek to encompass these components into my everyday work as your provider. My goal as your personal doctor is to provide an individualized approach to your specific medical needs with integrative care involving all facets of health to address the matters of the mind, soul and community ‐ components that are crucial in achieving wellness and longevity. I understand that internal medicine patients have specific medical needs that require a unique path to improve health. As an MDVIP‐affiliated physician, I have more time to help you maintain and achieve your goals. My mindset is “we are a team”, which will allow us to make informed decisions together through personalized care and setting obtainable goals. Whether it is stabilization of a disease, improving nutrition and fitness, reducing the use of medications when possible or focusing on other areas of concerns, I will be by your side.
Hippocrates once said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”. This quote defines and summarizes my passion for medicine and wellness, providing the backbone of preventive care.
As one of the few practicing female internists in Anchorage, I live and speak a balanced, clean lifestyle. I have a particular interest in diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular health and preventive care ‐ with a focus on nutrition, fitness and weight management.
As your private doctor, it is important for me to help manage your care if you are hospitalized. I understand the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to care and want to help guide you through these acute issues that may arise from the start of hospitalization to follow up discharge care. My background in hospital based internal medicine, and formerly ICU/Cardiac nursing, will allow me to further manage these concerns and develop a close relationship with you. These relations are what contribute to my happiness in medicine and life, day in and day out.

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.
