Joseph A. Marotta, MD

The goal of my internal medicine practice is to offer individualized service to my patients. I believe the MDVIP practice model revives and helps to optimize the doctor-patient relationship because I have more time to spend with patients. I can be your personal physician who can respond promptly to a medical need after hours or see you the same or next day. I believe in being reachable when patients need me.

After 30 years of private practice, I found the focus of the medical field has changed from one of not only helping address disease when it occurs but supporting patients as they work toward preventing the preventable. As a primary care physician in the downtown area of San Antonio, Texas, my goal is to provide more personalized care. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests in the Wellness Program. My areas of special interest include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and sleep-wake cycle issues. I support patients as they pursue living a longer and higher quality life.

My practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments with minimal waiting. I am affiliated with Methodist Hospital Metropolitan, so if my patient is admitted, I may serve as their admitting physician and hospitalist. I am fluent in Spanish and mostly fluent in Italian.
