About Kristin Astrom, DO
As a primary care physician, I strive to create an environment where empathy and compassion are the guiding principles of every interaction. You are not just a patient but an individual with unique needs, concerns and stories, and you are deserving of my attention and understanding. By taking the time to create a more personal relationship with each patient, my staff and I are able to foster more open and honest communication. My aim is for you to always feel comfortable discussing your health concerns and goals. I focus on the physical aspects of health, as well as the emotional, social and mental well-being of my patients.
My MDVIP-affiliated family medicine practice is located in Sparks, Nevada, and services northern Nevada. I offer services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments, as well as the ability to contact me when you need additional advice or just a listening ear. My vision is to provide comprehensive care that supports patients in achieving improved health and quality of life.

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.
