About Jillian Halmi, DO
Born and raised in Erie, PA, I am intimately familiar with the health needs and challenges that face residents here. My personal philosophy of wellness starts with the basics—a healthy diet, regular exercise, adequate rest and a well-balanced life. I feel that I have lived this example throughout my life as an athlete (I still hold high school records at Fairview for the javelin throw and QUAD cycling) and as a healthcare consumer like you. If a patient’s health needs go beyond these basics, I feel qualified as a board-certified family practice physician to better address them myself and with additional medical resources, whether it’s medications, specialist consults or therapy. My goal is to partner with you in your medical care plan. I am also open to non-traditional options when appropriate.
I strongly believe in the importance of a close physician-patient relationship. The rapport and trust I have established with my patients make me heavily invested in their health outcomes. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I have the time and availability to see you the same day or next day, spend the time necessary to answer your healthcare questions, and get to know you as a person. I see medicine as a sacred responsibility and treat my patients as I would like to be treated.
My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.

What our members are saying
The first time I met her I was looking for a new Dr. as my previous Dr. was leaving her practice. Dr. Halmi listened as I shared my story. She the told me her story and how she views doctoring, how she would, or would not look after my health as best she could. Then she surprised me by asking what do I think and would she be a good match as my Dr. I replied she would,…
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.
