About John H. Mitchell, MD

There are a few principles I have always believed in and continue to practice daily:

  1. If the physician listens to his patient, 90% of the time, he will be told of the diagnosis.
  2. Treat the patient, not the labs or the diagnostic studies.
  3. The best care comes when you care.
  4. There should be a doctor, who has patients whom he knows and cares for as a Shepherd would guide his flock. Let me lead you to better health and wellness.

Dr. John Mitchell embodies the epitome of compassionate healthcare. From the moment I started my health journey with Dr. Mitchell, I've been embraced with nothing but warm and genuine care. Dr. Mitchell's exceptional listening skills and empathetic approach foster a sense of trust and mutual understanding. He doesn't merely address symptoms; he delves into the broader context of patients' health, considering emotional and mental well-being alongside physical ailments. I appreciate his approach to preventative medicine and I feel so cared for in his care.

Dr. John Mitchell stands out as a beacon of compassionate care, embodying the ideal of a caring, loving doctor.

Dr. John Mitchell is unlike any health care provider I have encountered. He is personable, caring, kind, and wants to treat YOU, not just the symptoms you may be experiencing. He is very knowledgeable. Dr. Mitchell treats you how family should be treated. His staff are hard workers and make you feel welcome. Dr. Mitchell is a rare asset to the medical profession. I would recommend him highly.

Dr. Mitchell goes above and beyond his duties as a doctor. He genuinely appreciate his patients. He makes sure to explain health issues and medicine and gives solutions to prevent further problems. He creates plans to stay on track. He takes the time to know us and treats us like family not just patients. His facility is immaculate. His staff is professional and kind. The best way to describe Dr. Mitchell is that he is not just a great doctor, but truly a great person and he is irreplaceable.

Dr. John Mitchell has been a Life Changer for all of my family. One of the best things about Dr. Mitchell is that he treats our entire family. Mom, Dad, son and my Dad. At his visits you never feel like he is in a hurry to get done with your appointment. He makes you feel safe, genuinely cared about and he LEARNS about you. And he has heard things from other family members, so there’s no lying here!

We get the best care because he treats his patients not just by what a lab report or X-ray says; but he LISTENS TO YOU! He doesn’t just treat the disease; he treats the patient who has the disease.

You never feel like Dr. Mitchell is far away, even when you are on vacation on the other side of the USA. A quick phone call to his office or a text at 9pm and he has a prescription at a nearby pharmacy ready for you. Now you can enjoy your vacation knowing Dr. Mitchell is always there for you. Life is better with Dr. Mitchell on our side.

We appreciate Dr. Mitchell to the moon and back!

Dr Mitchell is extremely knowledgeable, caring, and attentive to his patients. He is the perfect family practice physician, because he provides many health care services in house, and coordinates services by specialist physicians. I believe it is vital that my primary care doctor have a complete picture of all the treatments and medicines I am receiving, and Dr Mitchell is willing and able to be that health care steward.

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.
