Paul Tchao, MD

My goal as your private doctor is to partner with you to create a  personalized healthcare plan to better treat your current health problems and prevent new ones. I understand and celebrate that internal medicine patients have specific medical needs and desire a unique path to positive health outcomes. I will work and partner with you at each step of this journey to assist you with making informed decisions towards achieving your goals, whether it is running your first marathon, improving your nutrition, reducing the use of medication or helping you stop smoking. As one of the few preventive medicine internists offering this personalized healthcare approach, I focus on knowing each one of my patients well beyond their immediate needs. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time. 

My primary care practice is located in Deer Park, New York and focuses on woman and men's integrated health and preventive care, in addition to all aspects of internal medicine. I am affiliated with Stony Brook University Hospital, Good Samaritan Hospital and Southside Hospital. I am also on the teaching staff at Stony Brook University Hospital Medical School. I am fluent in English, French, Creole, German, Chinese Mandarin and Chinese Cantonese. 

I will be honored to be your personal health adviser. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice I will treat you as a member of my family in a warm and welcoming atmosphere, where you will benefit from the full extent of my education expertise with compassion and understanding.
