About Marilyn Ligon, MD, FAAFP

As a primary care physician, I am committed to the well-being of my patients. I believe in the power of preventive health measures to help enhance lives. My philosophy centers on a proactive approach to healthcare, education and personalized care.
By building stronger doctor-patient relationships, I strive to create a supportive environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and participating in their healthcare journey. 
Through comprehensive screenings and having more time to spend with patients, I can work with them to develop unique action plans as they pursue their health goals. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.
Ultimately, my goal is not only to review illness, but foster partnerships with patients and support them as they work to improve their health.

BEING A PART OF THE MDVIP IS GREAT FOR ME. I DO NOT HAVE TO WAIT TO GET AN APPOINTMENT WITH DR. LIGON AND SHE ALWAYS RETURNS MY TEXT OR PHONE CALL THAT DAY, EVEN IF IT IS PAST BUSINESS HOURS. SHE, SOMETIMES HAS TO CALL IN MY MEDICATION TO DIFFERENT PHARMACIES IF THAT PHARMACY DOES NOT HAVE IT IN STOCK.

Both of my adult daughters and I are members of MD VIP, we all have auto immune diseases.

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.
