From my 1st encounter with Dr. Clapp I learned that she was very thorough and in depth when it comes to her patient concerns/needs. A visit can last anywhere from 30 min to an hour but all questions and worries will be taken care of. Thanks Dr. Clapp your knowledge and expertise means everything.

Dr. Mary Margaret Clapp and I made a connection on my first visit. She is very professional and no non-sense. She explains things in a way that anyone can understand. Because of the difference in our height, sometimes she has to get a stool :-). She is a very knowledgeable Doctor and I am pleased with her. She has made a difference in my overall health.

The first time that I met with Dr C and that's what I call her, we automatically clicked! She is one of the most wonderful people that you will ever have as a doctor. She has always been very helpful to me and she listens to. She's very smart and very caring for her patience! Even the workers that she has as her staff are very nice. You do not find that in a lot of doctor's offices. I go every 3 months for medicine check and she's always understanding and caring. I never have to wait and even if I did I would wait for her. I have gotten so attacked to Dr C that I definitely would not be happy with another doctor. She does not push me to do anything that I don't want to do and that's what I like about her anyone that has the opportunity to be her patient, is one lucky person and that's the way I feel. I love her very much and if anybody deserves appreciation she definitely does!!!! Love you Dr C ❤️ thank you for always caring for me!

Meet Mary Margaret Clapp, MD

My passion as a family medicine physician is to provide you and your family with personalized care and attention to better treat your health concerns and help prevent new problems. To help accomplish this, I offer the MDVIP Wellness Program, which incorporates advanced screenings and tests that can help give us a more in-depth picture of your health.

I believe my job is to educate, coach and support, because I want to be not only your physician, but also your health coach. I work diligently to stay informed of the latest developments in medicine and wellness. As your personal primary care doctor, I can invest time to review your records more thoroughly, discuss lab results and better understand your concerns and goals. I am committed to building a strong doctor-patient relationship by being there for you and your family through health issues and illnesses and to coach you along your own path to wellness.

Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. I aim to become partners with my patients in understanding their individual needs and creating individualized wellness strategies that can help them live a healthier life, both physically and emotionally. The MDVIP model of care better enables me to spend more time with you and give you the personal care and attention you deserve.

I also believe it is important to know a patient as a person and build a partnership so we can work to develop a customized care plan just for you. I respect your health, lifestyle, personal health goals and motivations and intend to understand the parameters that are feasible for you.

To do this, I must gather information, which I do through several avenues: giving patients unrushed time to express their concerns, both in health and life in general; noting information from previous physicians and current specialists; and taking the time to review the information, including talking directly with specialists when acute concerns arise. I try to utilize preventive care measures to help prevent problems before they arise. I like to take time to explain the purpose of an appropriate treatment to help ensure patients have a better understanding of their options.

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.

I can see Dr Clapp if needed for illness such as sore throat and such when needed and for any other complications. I've never been hospitalized but she can help oversee my care in our local hospital. I value her diagnostic opinions. She cares about her patients and realizes that we are people and respects our health decisions regarding treatment options. I'm 67 years old and she and Dr. John Brandon are the best Doctors I've had in my lifetime.

Just started with Dr. Clapp since our former physician, Dr. S. Lovelady, quit his practice, a medical condition. My wife Louise and I were delighted with our initial interview with Dr. Clapp and are happy to recommend her.

I have been a patient with Dr Mary Margaret Clap, I'm thinking going on 3 years, my first visit with her was so welcoming I just love her! She's a very caring and kind person, she actually got me on scholarship because I'm low income and I don't know what I'm going to do for a doctor if I don't get to continue. I have to see Dr Clapp every 3 months. The staff you couldn't ask for a better one so inviting and so nice and it makes your visits so much easier. Thank you for your time and thank you for caring Dr Clapp ♥️🙏

I would not let her care for my dog. Someone must have done her work in med school. You’re better off letting your 5 year old play doctor and diagnose you than her.

I’m sure they are smarter anyway.

Isn't if funny how the first reviewer on here is anonymous. Clearly you don't know a good doctor when you see one.
My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Clapp since before her own practice. We both love how she spends as much time with you as you need. She answers all the questions you have and is very thorough. If it wasn't from her I would be dead right now with a massive heart attack. It was her experience that had my blockage in my widow maker artery found just in time. She set me up with a cardiologist and insisted I go.
Among other issues I have had she has always been accurate with my treatment and medication.
I'm 53 years old and she is the best doctor I have seen.
Her practice is changing soon which makes me sad but I would highly recommend her to anyone.

It felt it was like the doctor places when I was a little girl and the doctors were like family and even came to the house. I felt very fortunate to see how well my conditions were handled especially the procedures I require yearly which are 4 due to cancer .It has been upsetting that I had to pull out due to finances which now leaves me with no doctor as Ive tried for 2 weeks .Thank you for spending time getting to know me and health issues .Yall are surely missed .

Dr.Clapp correctly diagnosed a condition I had for years. The specialist she sent me to confirmed her diagnosis. Having an explanation and a name for this meant so much. She doesn't just medicate you. She finds the cause.

Dr. Clapp is the most thorough, caring, considerate and intelligent doctor who actually listened to my concerns. My first visit with her blew me away. She takes a comprehensive approach to her patients overall health and spent quality time with me discussing my history as well as family history that could impact my health in the future. One of the wisest investments in myself that I’ve ever made.
