About Raul E. Tamayo, MD
From the time I was 6 years old I remember being totally fascinated by medicine as I frequently visited (or escaped to) a clinic next to my grandparents’ home. As a primary care internist my goal and passion has been to partner with my patients and deliver quality medical services in a highly personal and compassionate manner. For over 30 years of practice, I have enjoyed the privilege and responsibility of being the primary care physician to so many wonderful patients. I feel very grateful and blessed for this confidence and the wealth of knowledge and experience it has provided to me.
I have decided to change my current practice to a more personalized model of adult primary care medicine, concentrating on wellness and prevention, yet also engaging in early detection and intensive management of multiple conditions and diseases. Over the last 12 years, I have received additional training in functional-integrative medicine combining expertise from both traditional internal medicine and functional-integrative medicine into my practice. I strongly believe that combining expertise in both of these areas of medicine continues to make me a more complete physician.
As a result, I have affiliated with MDVIP, a leader in personalized wellness and prevention with a very impressive record. This welcomed change will allow me to focus on getting patients of any age to desired states of optimal health and enjoy new levels of vitality. In order to accomplish this, I will be limiting my practice in order to provide patients the time and resources to focus on their well-being.
I am very excited for this new direction toward precision and predictive, evidence-based medical care that will make our goal of reaching optimal health and vitality a reality. I hope that you will join me on this amazing and exciting new journey.

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.
