Dr. Fentriss is such an important part of my life. She always has a smile and takes the time to listen. I feel so secure in knowing that she is keeping up with the health of my husband, and that gives me peace of mind. Plus, I just plain LIKE her! So fortunate to have her as head of the Seiberling health team!

I am new to the MDVIP family and unfortunately have already had to visit the office several times. Not only Dr. Fentriss but the entire practice is genuinely concerned about your health and wellbeing. That is hard to find nowadays. I have to drive from Mt. Juliet for my visits but it is well worth the drive for excellent care.

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.
