About Michael T. Beckham, MD, FACP

My goal as your physician is to promote health practices that are more tailored to your individual needs. I have spent 29 years as an internal medicine physician and have learned what I believe to be the most important aspects of an ideal patient-physician partnership: Applying the latest science-based medical knowledge and treatments, taking your symptoms and problems seriously, and listening to your concerns. I am dedicated to partnering with you to help you better achieve your personal health goals, whether that involves improved nutrition, losing weight, boosting your fitness, working to minimize your medications or helping to prevent disease.

I am board certified in internal medicine and try to practice what I preach through frequent exercise. I particularly love mountain biking, hiking and swimming. I also support my patients’ psychological and spiritual health, promoting practices such as yoga, counseling and meditation, and employing pharmacological therapy as needed.

I practice at TriStar Summit Medical Center in Hermitage, TN and serve patients from all over Middle Tennessee. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. Typically, appointments start on time, and I can see you the same day or next business day. I look forward to developing deeper, personalized relationships with my patients.

I have been a patient of Dr Beckham since my oncologist released me in 2010. I have never been disappointed I pick him as my doctor. He came highly recommended to me and now I know why! He is so kind and never has made me feel like he was rushing through my appointments with him. Last year when I was seeing him he told me he was retiring from practice and before I even knew I was saying “No Dr…

Dr. Beckham is a wonderful Doctor. He always takes the time to listen and find solutions. When I am in the office I feel as if I am his only patient. He was one doctor out of 5 that was finally able to help diagnose my son's psoriatic arthritis after years of testing and trying with other doctors. He is dedicated and passionate about his work and has a very nice disposition that allows for a…

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.
