My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

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.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Clapp

from Armekia in AL February 11, 2024 for Mary Margaret Clapp, MD

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.

from Emanuel in AL January 19, 2024 for Mary Margaret Clapp, MD

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.

from Jan in AL January 18, 2024 for Mary Margaret Clapp, MD

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… See more
