About Michelle Bauer, DO
I am a family primary care physician who has been serving the downriver area of Michigan, including Allen Park, Dearborn, Lincoln Park, Southgate, Taylor, Grosse Ile, Trenton, and Woodhaven, for nearly 25 years. I knew from a very early age that I wanted to be a doctor, and I enjoy all aspects of patient care. As an osteopathic physician, I am trained to treat the whole person, not just the disease, and I often use osteopathic manipulation to treat various musculoskeletal problems.
The MDVIP model allows me to spend time with and get to know my patients on a much deeper level than I could under a traditional practice model. I find this infinitely more fulfilling when it comes to treating the whole person. I’m reachable after hours and on weekends to help foster the kind of care that I believe patients deserve. I view the doctor-patient relationship as a partnership with your health as the number one goal. I embrace diversity in my practice and I aim to care for patients more personally and proactively.
My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advance health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. I approach each patient with a more personalized and individual plan to better address the aspects of their health.
My interests are in preventative care, women’s health, nutrition, exercise and individualized review of chronic conditions, such as hypertension, diabetes, asthma and thyroid disease. I am affiliated with Henry Ford Health and Corewell Health (formerly known as Beaumont-Spectrum Health System). My staff and I look forward to caring for you as part of our extended family.

Reviews from the web








From the moment I walked into the clinic, the staff was warm and welcoming. Dr. Bauer took the time to listen to my concerns and answered all of my questions with patience and expertise.
What truly sets Dr. Bauer apart is the genuine care and attention to detail. I felt like more than just a patient; I felt like a valued individual.
The diagnosis and treatment plan were spot on, and I'm already feeling better.
Thank you, Dr. Bauer, for providing exceptional healthcare and creating a supportive, comfortable environment for patients like me. I highly recommend Dr. Bauer to anyone in need of a caring and knowledgeable family doctor!

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.
