About Mary L. Coan, MD, PhD, AAFP

My intent as your physician is to treat the whole person; body, mind and spirit. As an integrative medicine doctor, I believe that practices that have survived the centuries have much to offer with our conventional medical care. Our focus as a doctor-patient team is not on disease, but on health and wellness.
 
In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, we will work together to create health goals to help you have more control of the healthcare you receive. Diet, exercise, lifestyle, chiropractic, ayurvedic, acupuncture, naturopathy, medications and even surgical procedures are all pieces of the puzzle that will provide you with optimal health and wellness. My goal is to be your partner on this adventure.

What our members are saying

I joined MDVIP because I watched Dr. Coan identify my wife’s previously undiagnosed condition and put together a treatment plan that was very effective. Dr. Coan started me with a very thorough evaluation. She recommended several nutritional changes that made very positive differences in my daily life. She is thorough and professional, combining an in-depth knowledge across several disciplines…

There are so many things I could share about Dr. Coan - she truly is an amazing physician and person! I had dealt with extremely frustrating symptoms for over 12 years when I first saw Dr. Coan. After an in-depth conversation she proceeded with a thorough evaluation. When I experience these symptoms now it is such a relief to know it’s nothing serious. Needless to say, Dr. Coan’s knowledge seems…

At the age of 76 now, I feel I am the healthiest I have ever been. For as long as I can remember I have had health issues that plagued me with pain and unease. After some “big” health problems I have continuously improved with the help and guidance you have given me. About a year ago, thanks to continuous monitoring of my blood tests, it was obvious I was headed down a very dangerous path. The…

I don’t have a specific story to share but rather an overall appreciation for Dr. Coan. From my first appointment with her many years ago, I knew I had found not only a person I could trust, but one who listened like a caring friend. Dr Coan is a wealth of helpful information! I believe that she genuinely cares about me and my wellness journey. I never hesitate to contact her with any…

I liked Dr. Coan but someone in her office, probably the receptionist, a Ms. McIntyre, violated HIPPA by telling my mother about my care and payments. I absolutely did not have any permissions in place for sharing. It's been years and I still feel disgusted that my privacy was violated.

Dr Mary Coan at Integrative Family Care at Clifton Springs has been my Physician for a long time. We first started going to Dr. Coan when her practice was in Gananda, NY and I followed her to Clifton Springs. Dr. Coan has successfully treated and guided me through a terrible life-threatening illness. Her vast medical knowledge and homeopathic methods meld with my lifestyle and my way of thinking. I do not believe I could ever find a better Doctor than Dr. Mary Coan, I am truly blessed to have her! Dr, Coan’s Nurses and office staff, they all have been fantastic on trying to meet my needs and requests.

Dr. Mary Coan is the type of doctor every other doctor should strive to become during their career. She listens to the patient and takes time to review data (testing, patient feedback, etc.) before reaching any conclusions or providing treatment.

If you go to a regular run-of-the mill MD, he/she follows some protocol dictated by the AMA/insurance company because doctors are no longer allowed to think for him/herself. This is incredibly dangerous because each person has their own individual needs. Furthermore, the healthcare in this country is made to keep people sick and keep them paying large sums of money. Thankfully, Dr. Coan offers a DIFFERENT approach that does not rely on this broken system.

I am proud to have doctor who is concerned more about prevention and healing the body versus adding more medication and/or surgery. She is amazing and I would recommend her to everyone!

I have been fortunate to have excellent doctors most of my life, but none compare in the time, personal attention, follow through, and knowledgeable care I receive from Dr. Coan. Her staff are courteous, kind, well trained, and go well beyond the call of duty in serving her patients. I find Dr. Coan uses her background and Ph. D. in toxicology to explore all options for me and I feel she knows far more about meds and interactions than many doctors have from their med school studies. I never hear her say "It's standard of care." She searches until she finds what's best for me! I'm never rushed out or left with unanswered questions. I am so grateful for her care.

Dr. Coan is great, although I still had to do most of my own research, she was able to work with my findings. When I got laid off due to covid and couldn't keep paying the extra money to be her patient I suddenly without notice couldn't get my prescriptions refilled. Went round and round with the company and even tho I had only 1 annual wellness exam I was being charged for two and they would not work with me at all saying I owed $1000 and would still have to pay the full amount even tho I haven't and would not be allowed to see my dr. Untill the full back amount was paid. This group she joined ruined a good dr. I'm not left with no thyroid medication and not sure what will happen next and very worried what will happen to my health without that medication.

I saw Dr Coan for yrs until
Just recently. I never had a problem getting an appt. I loved her staff & had to change to a new Dr due to the expense of the concierge service. I’ve never been healthier under Dr Coan’s care

Never seem to be able to schedule an appointment. Easy time I am able to schedule an appointment I end up waiting. Last time I waited over 20 minutes. Each time I go there’s a different PA and haven’t seen Dr. Coan in years. Ridiculous!

My entire family LOVED Dr Coan. It was NEVER easy to make a call to ask any questions or schedule an appointment. The staff was abrasive to each of us and at times obtuse to not only me but members of my family. I did address it with Dr Coan once and it appeared better for a short time. Between front desk and nurse, it was like a wall. Making Dr Coan aware of this “problem” never changed it which led ME to believe, it was intended to be that way. Dr Coan is SO SMART, compassionate and reads your blood work like a personal diagram but you have to look at the whole picture. Dr Coan decided to change her practice to a concierge practice in which you had to pay almost 2000. A year per person in the family ( out of pocket) to ensure you would see HER. This felt like a kiss off for many patients. I wish her well and I hope she didn’t cut of her nose to spite her face

Dr Coan is awesome, but the staff is not easy to deal w/. I schedule my app. For routine checkups w/out any problems. BUT, when I am sick or need to be seen, I have been told by staff to go to urgent care or E.R. . When this happens, it is very upsetting/frustrating. Nathan is awesome, very thorough and caring, too.

Both staff I spoke to on the phone were rude, cut me off mid-sentence, and were patronizing.

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.
