Dr. Yamane

Meet Michael H. Yamane, MD, MPH


As a physician, I am honored with the opportunity to transform the lives of my patients with the power of compassion, knowledge and skill. Healing, understanding, relieving suffering, calming fear, preventing illness, creating balance, achieving harmony and helping patients remain healthy are all part of my daily work as a doctor. It is deep within my nature to care for others and to fix things that are not right. MDVIP makes it possible for me to have the time and tools I need to enhance the lives of patients in many meaningful ways.

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.

Dr Yamane has treated our family of years. He is knowledgeable, personable and kind. He is much more like a friend than a service provider.

I was a patient of Dr. Yamane prior to him affiliating with MDVIP. I remained with him because of this excellent care and proactive focus on wellness. He has an abundance of patience and spends quality time with me. I am never in doubt that he will be thoughtful about what I reach out for and timely in his response. Outstanding in all aspects of his patient care.

Dr. Yamane (and the entire practice) is first-rate. The extra personal care is well worth the additional cost of this MDVIP-affiliated practice. This is health care as it should be practiced, and should be available to everyone. If he ever has any openings, I highly recommend to sign up.

Dr. Yamane was my physician before he joined MDVIP. I followed him because of his personalized care and support he has always provided to me. That level of professionalism has only increased over the years. He puts all of his medical knowledge and experience into the quarterly and year end reports he provides; and they have proved invaluable to my cancer specialists in the past 3 years. His advice on diet and supplements is invaluable. For example, Dr. Yamane facilitated genetic testing that discovered my need for methylfolate Vit. B for absorption. Since my cancer diagnosis, Dr. Yamane has followed each stage and assisted me through out this ordeal. He is an invaluable medical counselor, healer and a friend.

My husband Phil and I have been patients of Dr. Michael Yamane for over 30 years. When he informed us that he was going to be joining MDVIP, we did not hesitate to continue as his patients.
His expertise, professionalism, dedication to his profession and patients and empathy are unsurpassed.
He goes above and beyond every single time when we call upon him.
We are very grateful to be under his care.
We cannot say enough about his staff. We enjoy the same dedication from them that Dr. Yamane has displayed to us.

Dr. Yamane continues to get better at his profession each year since I have been with him. He has great sense of humor, is calm while providing medical information, and and completes his work with the patient in a timely manner. He is a true professional in every sense of the word. When my cardiologist in Florida reads my medical history prepared by Dr. Yamane he always tells me how lucky I am to have such a knowledgeable physician in my corner. My responses on the MDVIP SURVEY also support how I feel about Dr. Yamane, “he’s a 10 all the way.”

Dr. Yamane has been my physician for years and has done a wonderful job in caring for my health. He has significantly helped my ability to deal positively with several health issues that I have. As a result of his advice, I am armed with the knowledge I need to manage my health, and he never hesitates to answer questions that I may have going forward.
I trust him with my life and you will find no other doctor possessing his incredible medical skills with the ability to provide his patients medical care in a humane, compassionate way.

I could not ask for better medical care for my mom from a physician than Dr. Michael Yamane. He genuinely cares about his patients. He is very patient, thorough, and knowledgeable. My mom receives excellent care from this physician and his office staff is second to none.
Extremely pleased.

Dr. Yamane has always provided excellent medical care; confirmed for me by my wife, Brenda, who is a Registered Nurse with lots of experience; and has never Not been available. An example is one Saturday when I called about an infected area and he was riding his bike; texted him a picture and he prescribed medication and scheduled an office visit for Monday. Also, he has offered to come to my house, if need be, due to recent hospitalization. Reminds me of how doctors used to come to the house when I was growing up.

My last visit

from Charlotte F in NJ • March 15, 2024
I have been a Doctor Yamane patient for many years. Every appointment goes well. I understand all he and his staff have to say to me. For the past six years I have been doing glucose and blood pressure readings 3 times a day at least 20 times a month. I document the readings and give a copy to the doctor at every visit. At my last visit with Doctor Yamane when I was about to leave, he said “thank Read more...

For as long as I can remember I've been treated by Dr. Michael Yamane. The perfect description of him is the calmness within a storm.

from Sheryl in NJ • February 27, 2024
I have been a patient of Dr Michael Yamane for about 20 years. I started seeing him before he joined MDVIP. In fact, I joined MDVIP so I could continue seeing him. I also still belong to the program for the same reason. I am retired & the cost is a bit high & my children wanted me to look for a new physician but I refused. He is very professional but also warm & friendly. I feel very Read more...
