About Lewis R. Weiner, MD

I feel fortunate to have re-established a small, personalized care approach to my practice, which allows me to treat patients as individuals, and optimize a long term relationship where wellness, prevention, and availability are fundamental to maintaining your health.
By being comprehensive, thoughtful, and time intensive, we are able to get to know each other well, and focus on you and your health in a way that is increasingly unavailable in the current practice environment. This allows partnership, advocacy, and comfort in keeping you healthy.
I feel my patients are an extended family, and that inviting you into our office is like welcoming you into my home. I want you to feel safe, at ease, and able to share all the concerns which will impact your long term care plans, allowing prevention, early detection, and acute care when you need it. This foundation of a trusting, personalized relationship revitalizes the principles of medical care we all trained for, which you enjoyed years ago, and still deserve today. We will customize wellness plans based on your needs and preferences, help you learn how to live a balanced healthy lifestyle, and support you in achieving your wellness goals.

What our members are saying

Dr. Lewis Weiner has been my PCP for many years; until my husband's accidental death several months ago, he was also his doctor. He has reached out to me with particular kindness and understanding since Kurt died, asking how I am doing and how he can help. As usual, I can get an appointment to see him on short notice if necessary, and when my daughter was in town to help me after the funeral…

Dr Lewis Weiner is the doctor I can always count on. For 17 years he has been a constant source of good suggestions, caring demeanor and medical advice. I probably wouldn't be here without him. He is one special doctor!

My husband and I, along with several other family members have been fortunate enough to have Dr. Weiner as our concierge doctor. He always goes above and beyond when we need him. Recently, he helped my husband during some problems he experienced after having an endoscopy. We were unable to reach our GI doctor.

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.
