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.

Dr. Minter is the truth! Excellent bedside manners, her assessment of my health status is on point, awesome communicator and easily reached. Her staff members are kind and respectful. In my many years of living in Atlanta, I know no other doctor like Dr. Kathy Minter.

I called to try and become a New Patient on a recommendation from my Insurance that they are accepting them at this time.
When I called the office, the receptionist informed me that the Provider I was calling for wasn't accepting new patients at this time. When I asked about more information as to why they aren't accepting new patients when insurance is telling me that they are, the receptionist became unprofessional with her tone and was rude. She continued to talk over me and and repeat herself instead of listening to the questions I had. Which I was just trying ask if there was another Provider in the Clinic that is accepting New Patients or can they recommend one that accepts my Insurance.
Receptionist, in a continued annoyed rude tone, just repeated herself that they aren't accepting New Patients. She was no help and made me feel as though I was an Inconvenience to her time, when in reality I was trying to give the clinic my services.

I have been a patient of Dr. Minter since 1999. I have received exemplary care. Dr. Minter is very thorough and when I've needed a specialist, her referrals are just as competent as she is. I've never felt rushed in her office and she answers all of my questions with accuracy. Also, her staff is caring and polite. Dr. Minter is the best doctor I've ever had and I would never change providers.

I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation for my doctor. She is truly a wonderful physician — kind, attentive, and remarkably bright. Her compassionate care and dedication make a significant difference in my healthcare experience.

I would also like to acknowledge her nurses, who are equally wonderful. Their professionalism, warmth, and support contribute greatly to the positive and comforting environment they create.

I am deeply grateful for the exceptional care they all provide

Dr. Minter is the most knowledgeable, caring and accessible doctor I’ve ever had. When I expressed concern about
progressive bone loss (ongoing osteopenia and risk factors) she gladly scheduled a meeting with me to discuss and outline what she would recommend. (She had just returned from a week long meeting about osteopenia/osteporosis and treatment!) Bone loss is my primary health concern at this point, and I am
very happy to have her as my primary care physician. Thank you Dr. Minter!

Dr. Minter is attentive and very responsive to my health issues, which have not been frequent but still worrisome to me when they occurred. She listens well, gives her recommendations, and follows up. I really appreciated her calls to me after the events to check how I was progressing. A virtual house call! I felt very valued as a patient.

I chose to remain in Dr. Kathy Minter's practice when it became part of MDVIP because giving up the quality of care that I'd been receiving for about 20 years was unthinkable to me. Dr. Minter is always very thorough, always informed by the most current information in medical journals. Equally important is the fact that she listens, answers all questions patiently ( no pun intended ), and never makes me feel rushed. While it might not be practical for everyone to invest the extra cost of "concierge medicine," it is partially offset by acceptance of Medicare. And I appreciate the extra information from my annual checkup. It can be crucial to prioritizing prevention

I have enjoyed being Dr. Minter's patient for nearly two years. But her incredible thoroughness and caring attitude were especially valuable when we moved my mother-in-law to Atlanta and she took over her care. She inherited a quagmire of medical issues to puzzle through, then she and her staff set up specialist consultations, procedures etc. When hospitalization was necessary she continued to assist us in navigating the hospital specialists and procedures. She was the voice of reason during a very difficult time. She goes way beyond any other doctor I have ever known.

Testimonials from patients of Kathy L. Minter, MD

A Perfect Fit

from Fran in GA • March 16, 2020
After my mother developed stroke-induced dementia, I moved her from N.C. to Assisted Living in Atlanta. A doctor's wife in a very small town, she'd been treated by male physicians all her life. I thought that in her impaired state that would be disconcerting, so I looked for a female. That is how I met Dr. Kathy Minter. It isn't easy to treat someone who cannot follow instructions Read more...

A phone call...

from Suzie in GA • February 29, 2020
I had just transferred my MDVIP membership to Dr. Minter on the recommendation of a friend who had been a long time patient. Before I had a chance to meet her my husband died very suddenly. Upon hearing that, Dr. Minter called to offer her support. She talked about the need for sleep and said she could prescribe something for that. Her kindness and caring came at a time when I needed it the most Read more...

I am very thankful Dr Minter is a GREAT listener.

from Clare in GA • March 10, 2016
As I have aged, it is very important to
me to have enough time to talk to my doctor. Although MDVIP has helped tremendously in this by having a system that allows doctors more time with each patient Kathy is exemplary and was before in her thoughtful and patient approach to listening. Listening is an under rated skill in doctors!
I am very thankful Dr Minter is a GREAT listener.


Plus we her and trust her.

from Judy • March 29, 2017
At the ripe age of 60 I have finally found a doctor who listens, follows through, and cares about my health. My husband and I find Dr. Minter to be all we imagined--and more--when we looked for a concierge Doctor! Plus we her and trust her.
