When I retired from my 30 year career faculty position in academic pharmacy and medicine and moved to a small coastal town I was very concerned that my new home town lacked the quality academic medical care to which I had grown to expect and value. A colleague recommended Dr. Joseph McCabe who was with a group Family Medicine Center for my primary care physician. That was 15 years ago now and…

I had a hip replacement. At PT, an issue arose regarding a possible complication.. Dr. McCabe(Joe) came by our house on his way home and assessed the situation. He saved me from a trip that night to the ER, and the unnecessary time, expense, concerns, etc.that would have gone with it. I feel very fortunate that he is my Dr,

I accidently found Dr. MCCabe during a rehab stay for a fx femur. I had been in excellent health prior to this and never established a medical doctor after moving to NC in 2015. In 2018 all changed. I decided to look for an MDVIP - after researching those available in my area Dr. McCabe was my choice. Throughout the past 9 years he has above and beyond to assist me with his encouragement and…

It is wonderful to have a doctor who actually listens and isn’t hustling me out of the office without answering my questions or addressing my concerns. I’m very happy I found Dr. McCabe’s practice.

Dr. McCabe and his staff takes the time to really listen to you. It is also refreshing to get an appointment on the same day or with in a day or two instead of waiting a week or more. I have multiple issues and he tackles one or two at a time…it is less overwhelming that way.

My husband and I have been happy members of MDVIP for several years. Not long ago we were surprised to find that our doctor was retiring soon. We quickly found Dr. McCabe and are so glad we did. He and his staff have gone above and beyond the call to help us with some unexpected health issues and those of family members. We are very satisfied with MDVIP. Really recommend to those able to afford it.

Dr McCabe and his staff are always available whenever I need help with a prescription, an office visit, or any other medical/health needs. As a current cancer patient Dr McCabe is always available whenever I have questions about medications etc and I keep him informed about my treatments.

I could not be happier with my choice to become an MDVIP member with Dr. McCabe. There's nothing better than feeling like your doctor listens and is knowledgeable. He's able to explain what I need to know in ways that I understand, and takes a holistic, preventative approach that I appreciate. His staff are consistently terrific too.

My son and I have been patients of Dr. McCabe's for several years. I am the son of an MD who practiced for fifty- five years.Through MDVIP, my son and I have had the benefit of service that rivals that of my father. Cortnie, Maris and Dr. McCabe are outstanding professionals who make every effort for their patients.

The best doctor and staff I've had in my 67 years of life. He listens, probes to get the whole story and diagnosis, acts as if he has nothing in the world to do but spend time with you. I can't say enough good things about Dr. McCabe's practice, except I am a very discerning patient with some very unusual and rare problems, and I feel I've never been in better hands.

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.
