About Lorenzo O. Hernandez, MD

I believe individualized healthcare is built on trust, more time and deeper connection. My approach to wellness is centered on personalized, relationship-based care—taking more time to listen to each patient as an individual, not as a diagnosis. I value longer conversations, education and informed decision-making so that every patient can feel heard, supported and more confident in their care.

As a family medicine physician, I provide comprehensive, personalized healthcare with a stronger focus on prevention and long-term wellbeing. My areas of interest include sports medicine, men’s health, nutrition, metabolic syndrome, weight-loss, sleep health, and emotional well-being. I am also experienced with and offer hormone replacement therapy, as clinically appropriate. 

I proudly serve patients in St. Petersburg, Florida, and surrounding communities, offering care to individuals and families seeking a more attentive and supportive primary care experience. I speak English and Spanish and strive for communication and comfort for a diverse patient population.

My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. My practice features longer appointments and the ability for patients to reach me during and after hours.

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.
