About Natalia A. Palacio, MD
As a primary care physician, my greatest privilege is getting to know my patients, not just their health history, but who they are as people. I believe that more individualized care starts with a real connection, where you can feel heard, respected and supported every step of the way.
Whether you're coming in for a routine checkup, managing a chronic condition or simply trying to stay ahead of your health, I focus on patient-centered care that's tailored to your needs. I have more time to listen, answer questions and work together with you to build a plan that fits your life.
From preventive medicine to chronic diseases, I bring an experienced, compassionate approach to every visit. I speak English and Spanish, and I'm committed to making care feel welcoming for all.
I'm proud to be affiliated with Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas, which allows me to speak with a network of specialists and help advocate for your care when you need it.
To me, being a physician isn't just a job, it's a calling. It's an honor to be part of your life and to walk alongside you as a partner in health.

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.
