He is the best doctor ever. I have never had another doctor like him. I first started seeing him when I took my parents to see him some 17 years ago with problems other doctors could not help us with. I am now 71 and have been seeing him for over 12 years. He is very compassionate and just knows how to handle my problems and anxieties. I have had several problems over the years that he…

Dr Poliak is a Saint. He sits down and takes the time to listen and explain everything! From all the tests that have been run and what we need to do to continue our way of life or how we can change our habits to extend our way of life and living. He is always available and answers within a moments notice. He helps my mom, my husband and myself. I cannot say enough positive things about Dr…

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.
