About Marc Kress, MD

I have been serving the Jenkintown community for more than 38 years. My family practice has always been predicated on providing a personalized, evidence-based, comprehensive approach to care coupled with compassion. I have strived to serve patients with old-fashioned values of commitment, dedication and humanism. I believe that to sustain this style of care in today’s increasingly complex healthcare environment and with shrinking time available to spend with patients, my affiliation with MDVIP offers more time and the ability to take a more individualized and proactive approach to patient care. 

By allowing for a smaller panel of patients, I am able to better serve you with same- or next-day appointments, which should run on time. Our time together is unrushed, allowing for your concerns to be heard. And when a more urgent health issue arises after hours, you will have my cell phone number to call me directly. I also believe that preventive care is paramount to better achieving optimal health. The annual comprehensive Wellness Program, offering advanced screenings and diagnostic tests that help identify your unique risks, helps us to customize a plan to optimize your wellness and reduce risk. 

This program can also allow for improved communication with specialists and time for me to help follow your progress should you require hospitalization.

What our members are saying

I have been a patient of Dr. Kress since his practice began, which is over 30 years now. I remember his beat up 280ZX he drove back then. Things have changed around us during that time, from our cars to our offices to us ourselves. We got older. What has never changed is him taking time to listen to me or to explain something to me. MDVIP is new to both of us. Old dogs can learn new tricks.

Dr. Kress continues to relate to me on a personal level. I'm building my house in Barbados and when we met last week his first question was to inquire of the progress of the house. He listened and seems to be legitimately concerned with my personal goals.

When I came to Dr. Kress with a white finger and other complaints I was upset and terrified. He took one look, and in a calm and warm manner ordered bloodwork. Several days later he was able to diagnose my very complicated issue and explain to me my autoimmune disease. He put me at ease and has helped direct and coordinate my healthcare ever since. When he joined MDVIP there was no question that…

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.
