Meet Margaret S. Lunt, MD


After being in private practice for almost 20 years as an internal medicine physician, I believe it is my job to help people achieve optimal health and wellness through knowledge, experience and compassion. Instead of pushing people through the system to meet the demands of volume based medicine, I hope to create an atmosphere with MDVIP where the patient and I can collaborate to make important diagnoses, tailor treatment plans and make reasonable lifestyle adjustments to improve the overall quality of life, despite the age or underlying medical condition.
 
My MDVIP-affiliated practice, located in Salt Lake City, Utah, focuses on chronic medical conditions including hypertension, thyroid disease, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. I also have a special interest in geriatrics, women’s health, integrative health and prevention. I like to focus on nutrition and exercise as a means to improve overall health and mental well- being, in addition to treating chronic conditions. As a primary care physician affiliated with Saint Marks Hospital and a part-time contractor with Utah Regional Hospitalists, I hope to provide excellent medical care in a personalized manner.

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.

DR. Lunt has been my Dr. for over 23 yrs, which has included my family and including them our decisions and friendships. I have had a Lot of injuries etc. Margaret has always been there for me. She has seen me through a strong anxiety attack and listened and gave me a Medication , which is working well. When my Husband died she was my rock. She just called me to check in to see how I was doing and also to let me know of the most recent result of a test. I have been extremely fortunate to have her not only as my Doctor , bur also as a confidant and friend. THANK YOU MEG. BLESS YOU.

Dr. Lunt is the most caring and kind physician that I have ever known. She listens to you & takes into account your concerns about your health. She considers all your health issues & puts together a coordinated plan for your overall health. I know she is there for me in any situation that might come up. It is very reassuring to know this.

I have been seeing Dr. Lunt for many years. She is always available, is a skilled, empathic listener, and includes my experiences in life, not just medical. She understands physical and mental health go hand in hand. She is not afraid to say "I don't know" but finds answers. She is meticulous about my health care making sure I get appropriate check-ups, vaccinations and referrals if needed. I get my test results almost as soon as she does. Being a physician is a calling to her, not just a career. She makes my life better every time I see her. I could go on and on about her. l'll leave it by saying if everyone had a doctor like her the medical profession would have very few complaints from patients and more respect for living, caring professionals who make our lives better.

She is very knowledgeable & when she doesn't know the answers to all of my questions she does research them & always gets back to me. When she refers you to another Specialist she always gets your permission. She is the very best Professional Dr. that I have ever been to!!
I have extensive health issues & she has been monitoring the issues very carefully & is very good at sharing the information with the other Drs. that I see.

I think rating doctors can be a little iffy. What I think encompasses a good doctor may not fit your criteria. However, Dr. Lunt is excellent in every regard. I have been a patient of hers for 20+ years. I simply have never had one complaint. She listens to what you say. She takes your life and your circumstances into consideration.She involves you in the decision making process and never makes you feel that she is right and you are wrong. If she feels a specialist is needed, she is not reluctant to refer you out. She is knowledgeable, kind, friendly, helpful, I could go on and on. I had been a patient of Dr. Lunt for many years before she joined the VIP practice. I did not go with her at the beginning, because I felt like it was too expensive for us. After about three years of not finding a physician I had confidence in, I have returned. She will be my doctor for the remainder of my life.

Dr Lunt is the best at caring for her patients. Health care is supposed to be like Dr Lunt practices. There is never a rushed feeling of the doctor having pressure to get to the next patient. The secure feeling of the ability to contact her 24/7 for any issue is awesome. Can not say enough about how dedicated of a doctor she is.

Compassionate, attentive and knowledgeable care has always been part of Dr Lunt's practice since I meet her in 1999.
I'm sure it's less stressful for her and her staff on the MDVIP regimen but she has always been this exemplary human being. She is the reason I stay in this program despite financial strain. And I miss Shannon and hope she can return to Dr Lunt's office soon. Thank you.

Meg is simply the best. She has become more of an interested friend than a doctor. We have moved five times in the past three years following children and grandchildren and Meg has been watching over me, answering my texts and phone calls, making sure I get all the preventive care and taking care of my illnesses. I could not be happier with my PCP!!

I was referred to Dr. Lunt about 20 years ago after having a bad experience with the doctor I had been seeing. This turned out to be a blessing in my life. Dr. Lunt is not just a doctor, she is a warm, caring person who takes physical, emotional and mental health seriously and understands how these all play into wellness. She isn’t afraid to say I’m going to refer you to a specialist when I need it. I feel I have somewhat of a complicated health picture and yet she knows how to make sense of it all. I can’t imagine seeing anyone else for my care. She “wrote the book” on what a doctor should be: not just symptoms, tests or here’s what you need to do. There are a few doctors and nurses that fit this summary: it’s not just a job for her, it’s a calling. She is wonderful and I love and respect her beyond measure.

She is kind and patient, and takes the time to answer all my questions. I feel comfortable knowing she is diligent in providing me with the best health care possible and helping me to live a longer and healthier life.

Dr. Margaret Lunt is the BEST!

from B Sue in UT • April 2, 2024
It has been so nice to have a doctor who is so thorough and so supportive of me and my health. It's great to have someone who is so understanding and gives me her genuine and helpful advice. Doctors that I have gone to in the past have been dismissive and in a hurry. I really appreciate Dr. Lunt's wonderful care and consider a good friend.
