Why is Dr J. Kenneth Griffin special? Let me tell you a few of the many ways he is special to me and my husband.
You know how special your doctor is when:
• He calls and checks on you when there is severe weather in your area even though the
weather is severe where he lives, 2 hours away, that is special.
• He walks in the exam room, smiles big and lets you know he is…

As we all grow older many wonder and enquire, "who cares about old people anymore?" We live in a very fast paced world that has little time for those who slow down the crowd or who cannot keep up with present day technology. My wife and I are very fortunate to have a medical doctor who takes time for us. Dr Griffin repeatedly asked, "do you understand what I'm explaining to…

As a mestastatic cancer patient living in two states, I have multiple specialist physicians who are rarely available to talk to. Dr. Griffin is always available and has taken on the role of quarterback among my various doctors, reaching out to them and clarifying various treatment choices. Dr. Griffin is the calm voice of reason and trust in my chaotic medical life.

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.
