What Members Are Saying

Dr. Manvelyan is truly one of Pasadena's best-kept secrets. After being with my previous MDVIP doctor for 30 years, who retired, I was referred to Dr. Manvelyan. I remember feeling overwhelmed during my first visit, grieving the loss of my previous doctor. However, Dr. Manvelyan's patience, care, and reassurance immediately put me at ease. Over the past three years, it's become evident that she genuinely cares about her patients' well-being. Dr. Manvelyan consistently goes above and beyond to ensure I am well-informed about my health. During my annual exam, she meticulously reviewed all tests and patiently explained everything, alleviating my anxieties with her calm demeanor and kind spirit. She even stayed late to ensure I understood all the information. Furthermore, Dr. Manvelyan's staff is exceptional—well-trained, caring, and focused on patient-centered care. The culture of putting patients first that she has fostered in her office is truly commendable. It's evident that her staff's happiness translates into exceptional patient care. Dr. Manvelyan's office structure, organization, and patient-centered culture are exemplary and could serve as a model for other MDVIP practices. I am truly grateful to have Dr. Manvelyan as my doctor, and I can't thank her enough for all she does for me. Her compassionate service to the community is invaluable.

Patient of Marina Manvelyan, MD

I am so thankful and grateful for having Dr Manvelyan as my primary care doctor. She is the most caring, compassionate and patient person. Dr Manvelyan took me on as a new patient when I could barely walk. She was relentless in trying to find a doctor to find a diagnosis for my autoimmune disease. And Dr Manvelyan found the best doctors who were able to heal me. She always refers me to the best possible specialists. She is never to busy to see me or answer my texts or my phone calls. She is always looking out for my best interests. I have Dr Manvelyan to thank for my health and for following a healthy regimen.. She is a brilliant doctor and full of compassion. I am truly blessed and happy to be her patient.

Patient of Marina Manvelyan, MD

I met Dr. Manvelyan for the first time in 2022. My MDVIP doctor for more than 40 years retired and he referred me to her. Changing physicians after so many years with the same doctor can be scary but I knew I had made the right decision as soon as we met. Dr. Manvelyan is my first female PCP. She is compassionate and caring. She takes the time to explain your health issues and she listens to your concerns. To put it simply, I think she is a wonderful doctor and I'm so grateful I found her. There is no single moment I can point out because all of our moments together are meaningful to me.

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.
