About Michelle R. Mendez, DO
In an age where medicine can often feel impersonal, I aim for my practice to be a kind of sanctuary—a place where science can meet soul and healing combines the internal and external. At its heart, my practice embodies my philosophy that wellness includes wholeness, integrating body and mind. My goal is that this personalized approach to healthcare embraces the human being as a unified canvas—one that deserves evidence-based clinical guidance and compassion.
I aim for health care to not only be transactional but relational. I believe patients are not numbers or cases; they are stories, each deserving to be heard and honored. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. My guiding principle is that wellness and prevention can benefit from more time and attention—to history and individuality. I aim to tailor care with intention and attention from your personal physician who can support you beyond just symptoms and offers services that can benefit you inside and out.
I invite you to partner with me and my primary care practice rooted in empathy, experience and a dedication to support every individual who wants to pursue flourishing in life.

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.
