My Dad, Aaron, has been with Dr. Mark Maldia and his staff for a couple of years. His ongoing care is superior, i.e., making convenient appointments, help with billing, ordering prescriptions, lab work, or just a general health question. My Dad is blessed to live in a good Assisted Living Facility where he continues to be able to do his own medicines. He is a Type 2 Diabetic taking a slow acting…

Dr. Maldia has been my physician for around 15 years, and I am now 71 years old. Not long after my initial visits, he had earned my trust and respect. One day on a visit, we were talking about everyday matters which is so easy to do with Dr. Maldia. I told him that he could count on me to follow his directions and recommendations because I knew he was ensuring a continued healthy life for me. I…

When I retired at 76, it was initially difficult to develop active non-work interests. It was fun having time to cook, read, and write, but these somewhat sedentary activities did nothing to help me lose weight, build muscle, or move more.
Dr. Mark Maldia, through BMI, weight, and other health measures, tracked and managed the direction of my overall health. He answered my questions about…

Dr Maldia purchased my doctor's patient portfolio as my doc retired. So, my MDVIP membership transferred to Maldia. My prior MDVIP doctor was Dr James Frey. Dr Frey and his team took great care of me for many, many years and provided an experience you come to expect when you pay a substantial fee for a premium individualized service like MDVIP. They were fantastic and very accommodating. However, since Dr Maldia and his staff took over, my experience has been terrible. They don't call, email or text. I only got a boilerplate letter months ago announcing the change. Nothing since. I've never even spoken to Dr Maldia. Recently, I get a call that I've missed an appointment. One big problem with that - no one communicated to me that I had an appointment. Nothing. Now, they won't renew my meds without a visit because they consider me a "new patient". Okay - but I called and their appointments are weeks out. Remember, I PAY for the MDVIP premium service. I don't wait weeks for appointments - that's one of the benefits you pay for. Further, the receptionist has been short, terse and rude to me on 3 separate occasions. No one has been accomodating or provided any communication consistent with what MDVIP promises. Seems to me they took on way too many patients and the service has declined. I'm pretty easy to do business with. This however, is unnacceptable. I will be cancelling my membership with Dr Maldia and if my experience is any indication, I wouldn't waste my time with this practice. They act like you owe them something when it's you that pay a big fee to get VIP treatment. Hardly.

2024:
Dr. Mark Maldia and his staff have encouraged and assisted me in my quest for best possible health and function during retirement. Even when I've made only small gains or haven't changed much, they find something positive to praise instead of flogging me with "shouldas" and remind me of the most important focus for the next lap of my journey. They have been persistent in their emphasis on diet, weight, and exercise, which has helped me to make better food choices, limit the hours per day I eat, lose weight, and develop a more consistent walking and exercise routine. Currently I am walking a mile 3x/week and working out to strengthen upper & lower body strength and improve balance. Even though I am now retired and living primarily on SS benefits, the cost of MDVIP is still well worth it!

I continue to appreciate Dr. Maldia and his staff. They listen to my concerns and promptly work with me to allay them. I like the brief online educational items of interest to me based on my health needs, as well as the encouragement each provides on my progress. I am particularly pleased with the efforts to find a blood pressure medication that lowered my BP without making me so sleepy. This year I have also increased my walking from 3 days to 5 days per week, from 1.0 to 1.3 miles, and from speed rate of 0.5 to 1.7. The functional gains I've experienced include fewer naps, better mobility and endurance at home and in my community, & improved stair climbing. I am also able to cook and garden for longer periods of time; I still concentrate to maintain balance for reduced risk of falls, but I worry less about attempting more.

Dr. Mark Maldia is simply the BEST!
Dr. Maldia has been my physician for about 10 years and has provided me with excellent care. I trust his expertise and feel healthier than ever as I begin my eighth decade! On occasions when I needed a specialist, I had confidence in his recommendations. Initial appointments were arranged by his staff which was very helpful.
Recently my husband Lynn, also a MDVIP member, consulted him with left shoulder pain which we thought might be rotator cuff injury. Just as he got home having had some XRays, Dr Maldia was calling. During his thorough scrutiny of the images he found an artifact on the upper lobe of the left lung and asked if Lynn would return to have some additional XRays made, which we did. These showed and confirmed the artifacts.
(Lynn had smoked a pack of cigs.a day for over 50 years (with me protesting!) and had developed a persistent cough. I doubt that he mentioned this to Dr. Maldia though).
Dr Maldia advised consultation with a pulmonary specialist who reviewed the information and examined Lynn and recommended a surgeon, which his staff arranged.
When we met the surgeon our anxiety level was high.
This may have the briefest office visit in history.... (I say that thankfully).
The doctor kindly explained that the artifact was most likely the very thing no one ever wants to hear: cancer, but a biopsy would require a similar surgery and recovery as removal of the lobe which he thought was wisest choice.
Lynn agreed and the staff made the arrangements with the hospital for surgery.
We've never seen such a smoothly managed process from diagnosis, to pre-surgical lab tests, to admission, surgery, discharge, and follow-ups. With each doctors' support and co-ordination we felt assurance and knew we had the best of care and are greatly appreciative.
The surgery was successful.
Dr Maldia checked his patient several times a day and as needed. We were so very thankful that he took the time to request additional XRays and guided and supported us through an otherwise terrifying ordeal.
Thank you Dr. Maldia. May God bless you always.

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.
