About Joseph A. Cavuto, DO

My family's doctor was an osteopathic physician, and we always had great respect for this profession that strives to treat the whole person. For this reason, I decided to follow a similar path. The whole person ideal remains my goal for my patients, and I believe patients deserve more than a 15-minute slot on my schedule.

I believe that more purposeful medical care builds its foundation on a strong relationship between a doctor and patient, one based on mutual trust and respect. I find that more personalized care hinges on a deeper understanding of the patient’s physical, emotional and social aspects. My philosophy is to help teach you how to use your body’s potential to help you live a healthier, more fruitful life. I can help educate you so that you become more comfortable in pursuing your health goals. I will work with you to develop an individualized health plan.

I am thrilled to be part of the MDVIP national network, as it is the leader in personalized healthcare. The comprehensive diagnostic tests that comprise the annual MDVIP Wellness Program can provide invaluable information that can help identify risk and allow us to work on prevention. I look forward to partnering with you as you pursue a healthier life.

All 5 of us in my office were sick. My boss had started it and was the worst off; I warned him that he’d get bronchitis and pneumonia but he wouldn’t listen and ended up with double pneumonia, as did our lead admin. I was headed down that path but trusted Dr. Joe to intervene. He stepped up and helped me get the meds I needed to help my awful cough and I avoided far, FAR worse! I’m so grateful to…

Dr. Joe has been my and my family's primary doctor for nearly 40 years. As a matter of fact, he took the blood samples that were once required to obtain a marriage license for my wife and me. He has been a constant presence in our lives because he is available and he cares. He has seen us through several critical health concerns, most recently my atrial fibrillation and its correction.…

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.
